message: It seems like someone considered the father of the Waffen-SS would have be sentenced very heavily at Nuremburg, however, this article mentions only that he testified there. Perhaps a short paragraph detailing his postwar fate? Historian932 (talk) 04:34, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

message: The service end dates given for Heeresgruppe Oberrhein and Heeresgruppe G, don't match the dates when those groups are shown as disbanded on their respective pages.

message: The "Authorship" section mentions the book Waffen-SS im Einsatz and translates it as Waffen-SS in Action. But "Einsatz" means "something inserted." "Wirkung" means "action." The SS Einsatz groups were inserted into the regular army as special units whose task was to ruthlessly destroy specific local populations.Lestrade (talk) 00:58, 6 December 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Inserts

message: I would like to expand the section to add more context around: "At the Nuremberg Trials he vigorously defended the military role of the Waffen-SS and denied that it was involved in war-crime atrocities." I've been reading Hausser's testimony at the trial and found it elucidating: 
:Nuremberg Trial Proceedings Volume 20
:One Hundred and Ninety-Sixth Day 
:Tuesday 6 August 1946

thread_title:  Expanding section World War II 

message: In the literature that I have, I've not seen Hausser referred to by his nickname. I suggest rewording the lead as follows:
Paul Hausser (7 October 1880 – 21 December 1972) was an officer in the German Army, achieving the rank of lieutenant-general in the inter-war Reichswehr. After retirement from the regular Army he became a leading commander in the Waffen-SS. A popular commanding officer, he led Waffen-SS troops both on the Eastern and Western Fronts of World War II... 
Any objections to this revision? K.e.coffman (talk) 19:53, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I will go ahead and revise. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:31, 15 December 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Nickname 

message: The article very thoroughly covers the postwar era. However, there is nothing on his World War II history. For example, Hausser commanded the German 7th Army in the Normandy Campaign. Therefore B2=no (obvious omission). Djmaschek (talk) 04:53, 6 March 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, thank you. I will see if I can pull something together from WP:RS. K.e.coffman (talk) 05:11, 6 March 2016 (UTC)

message: G'day, I had a look at this article due to it being posted for re-assessment on WP:MHA. I have a couple of queries and suggestions, which might hopefully bring it up to B-class and maybe even GA: AustralianRupert (talk) 00:15, 27 March 2016 (UTC)
