Talk:Konrad Henlein

message: He could not ran from his deeds of the past.  He was a criminal.  He was an alcoholic and committed suicided like a coward for what he had did.  WestBohemiaTruthTeller (talk) 21:47, 27 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  A criminal 

message: I have removed this passage from Sudetenland:
"It has been frequently suggested that Henlein was a sinister schemer and his SdP nothing more than a subversive Nazi organization bent on the destruction of Czechoslovak independence. It is easy to understand how these notions arose, yet neither Henlein at the outset of his political career nor the SdP for many years of its development had anything to do with the National Socialist movement in Germany. [...] Hitler of course, more than welcomed the opportunity of making the Sudeten case his own and did not hesitate to misuse the principle of self-determination as a weapon to further his own Lebensraum policy." de Zayas, Alfred-Maurice. Nemesis at Potsdam. Routledge & Kegan Paul, London 1977 , pp. 28f.  
I don't know whether this is a representative view so I have not placed it in the Henlein article.  Anyway, much the same is already said here: "In the first half of the 1930s, Henlein held a pro-Czechoslovak and overtly anti-Nazi view in his public speeches and did not become a follower of Adolf Hitler until 1937 ...

thread_title:  Assessment 

message: Isn't there a rather misleading typo in this sentence: "Heinleinists" are a looming presence throughout Martha Gellhorn's novel "A Stricken Field" (1940)."? I'm referring to "Heinleinists". Shouldn't this be "Henleinists"? I have not read Gellhorn's book and know nothing about it but "Heinleinists" suggests American SF writer Robert A. Heinlein, not Konrad Henlein, the Czech-German politician.

You are correct. I found the spelling in the novel:

message: What is a "milder Nazi"? Is there anyone with more knowledge of Henlein who can flesh this out with specifics? Otherwise, it just sounds like empty excuse making. Dogface (talk) 15:40, 6 September 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I removed this. Yes, I know it's years later; it took that long for me to see it. Elinruby (talk) 05:26, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  German Occupation 

message: "Dvořáček to the more German spelling of Dworatschek" 
This is just a transliteration of the very same name, also given that "řáč" are not in the standard German character set. Just like Tchaikovsky is Tschaikowski is Chaikovski is Tchaïkovski is Tchaïkovsky, each European nation has its own standard transliteration. You can expect that this women was spelled in all sorts of ways in official documents. I would propose to entirely remove the "name change" assumption that I understand is there to illustrate controversial germanization policies. The name is clearly recognisable as of Czech origin, regardless how it is spelled out. --Arebenti (talk) 10:38, 9 October 2016 (UTC)

message: I have marked two references on this page as missing: Overy & Wheatcroft 1989, and Crampton 1997. It looks like the person who might know where they came from is , who is currently blocked. If any other page watchers can supply these full references, that would be great. Please ping me if you understand the sources but need help with putting the right code into the article. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:20, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: , if you google them, you'll find the full citations, if that's what you mean (I didn't check the page numbers.) SarahSV (talk) 19:30, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for the suggestion. I do not feel comfortable implying that I validated a claim based on a source that I have not seen. I fixed the errors that I was able to fix, and I could guess at what the sources are, but I am more of a gnome than a researcher. – Jonesey95 (talk) 21:48, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: Fair enough. I'll try to find time later to look them up, and if I can see the pages, I'll add the full citation. SarahSV (talk) 21:58, 22 December 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Missing references 

message: I understand that we are trying to give much information about background events but the whole page is too confusing to read. I asked myself several times whether I read Konrad Henlein's biography or an assessment of pre-war Czechoslovakia's international diplomacy stance? and it's too detailed ı don't need to know that British foreign office talked to Hungarians on Czechoslovakia etc. Nedim Sancar (talk) 23:32, 8 July 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  It isn't very clear to read this page  

message: 1. Should we delete the parts about what a nice guy he was for a Nazi?
2. Is the long speculation about the homo-erotic aspects of his gymnastics program DUE for this article? Elinruby (talk) 06:02, 11 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Rm some of this; needs more, but awaiting further input at NPOV noticeboard Elinruby (talk) 05:21, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Posted at NPOVN 

message: Not getting a lot of response at NPOVN. Trimming out some details about his early life. I also removed the remark about the homo-erotic concept, even though it appeared to be cited; it simply is not as important as his role in the Nazi invasion and subsequent deportations. All of this is discussable and other input and especially sources are invited Elinruby (talk) 07:57, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm going to encourage you to be bold here because I think you're doing the right thing.  The article as it stands has so much detail that goes above and beyond describing this person's life.  We can always refer back to the article before you started changing it, and compare the two, and say "you know, actually, I think this bit should stay".  Denaar (talk) 17:06, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: removing  because it's still uncited, and may be undue Elinruby (talk) 05:02, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
