Talk:NKVD prisoner massacres

message: What a remarkable example of Polonocentrism. Were not NKVD prisoners massacred elsewhere? --Ghirla -трёп- 13:35, 3 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think it's polonocentrism - the answer is much more prosaic: it's just a stub. I do agree that info on massacres outside Poland should be added. Would you care to do this?--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 17:34, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

message: I've put up this article for deletion for the following reasons:
#This stub does not list any facts that would justify a stub. IMO, before creating an acticle that groups similar events, one should first create separate articles describing each of those events.
#And yes, there is already an acticle on Katyn Massacre. Got more?
#There is absolutely no factual base under what's stated in this stub.

replies: text: Vitebsk and Minsk were not in Poland either. I moved the article back, let's see if the move discussion above (yes, Ghirlandajo, it's a hint) leads us somewhere. //Halibutt 15:10, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

message: I find the current title awkward.  How about NKVD prisoner massacres? Appleseed (Talk) 18:41, 18 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: How about removing POV terms like "massacre" from the title? What about "executions"? --Ghirla -трёп- 13:39, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: How is it POV? We even have :Category:Massacres. Appleseed (Talk) 17:24, 20 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: And while we are at it, why not move Katyn massacre to Katyn execution, Ghirla?-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk  18:18, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

text: We got a little sidetracked here, so I made the move.  I think it's an improvement. Appleseed (Talk) 17:45, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Why? 

message: In contrast to other sections, this section tells nothing about NKVD prisoners massacres. In addition, the massacres in former Polish cities (e.g. in Lwow) are already described in other sections. This section should be either removed as irrelevant, or some materials from Ukraine, Lithuania and Belasussia sections should be moved there.--Paul Siebert (talk) 20:11, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Most of the massacres took place in what at that time was occupied Poland, so it is hardly irrelevant, but it's true that all the massacre sites on formerly Polish territory are now either in Lithuania, Belarus or Ukraine. I made some edits which hopefully make things clearer. - Ivanevian (talk) 16:20, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  The "Poland" section 

message: The massacres were documented by German authorities and used in anti-Soviet and anti-Jewish propaganda.Xx236 (talk) 10:50, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  German propaganda 

message: The NKVD successfully evacuated more than 140,000 prisoners and allegedly killed more than 10,000. 
The article contains:
"Not all prisoners were murdered; some of them were abandoned or managed to escape because the retreating, panicked Soviet executioners logistically could not kill all of them"
In fact, the vast majority of prisoners were safely evacuated eastwards.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.51.171.124 (talk) 08:39, 4 May 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Hi, thanks for your input. You added one cited section which does indeed seem to run contrary to the some of the other cited material, and so the question apparently needs to be solved. However, you also removed to sections of clearly cited material, and that's not how things are supposed to be done. I undid these revisions. I'm not really interested in this subject so I'm not going to engage in this, but since it is a sensitive subject I so far undid your removals but let the section you added remain, even though this means the article now is contradictory. I encourage everyone to sort this out in a sensible way. Yakikaki (talk) 22:12, 4 May 2013 (UTC)

message: Is there any reason to state that the NKVD massacres 'culminated in the Lviv pogroms, which, from what I can tell, were conducted by the OUN and the Nazis, after they drove the Soviets from the City? If there is a historical reason for this connection, it should be clarified, otherwise I feel this section should be changed to state that the NKVD massacres immediately preceded the Lviv pogroms after the Nazis took control of the city. 76.82.237.1 (talk) 20:46, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: As far as I know, no. Someone who wrote a lot of these articles used to do that sort of thing, maybe to make their writing more dynamic? Thanks for pointing this out. I am reading the article and doing a light copyedit; if I see this is still there, I will change it to something less synth-ish like "was followed by" Elinruby (talk) 10:51, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
