replies: text: As pointed out elsewhere, it was banned in 1936. Per http://www.berlin.de/rubrik/hauptstadt/verbannte_buecher/ueber_schwarze_liste.php I also think the 1933 black list did not officially have any legal consequences (of course it had practical ones).

text: I see. I have to wonder, though, what this has to do with the article. If you want to accuse Kästner of opportunism on wp, you probablty should find some relevant source that does so. Everything else is just your private OR. Yaan (talk) 20:40, 1 October 2010 (UTC)

text: But "Wenn Kästner im Bereich des Nationalsozialismus von „Martyrium“ schreibt, ist dies glaubhaft und er macht dies vor allem nach dem Krieg durch zahlreiche Äußerungen sehr plastisch anschaubar. Kästner war ein sehr moralischer Mensch und er hat - nicht nur als Intellektueller - unter dem Naziregime wahrhaft und aufrichtig gelitten." does not really sound as if the author is very critical of Kästner's behaviour, does it? And everything else seems to be in the article already. Yaan (talk) 08:07, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

message: Perhaps  or another editor can help out here.  For the Erich Kästner Museum, there is an WP:EL (external web link) to www.erich-kaestner-museum.de, but currently no Wikipedia→Wikipedia internal wikilink.  Per WP:SEEALSO one could add a "See also" section, though the guidelines recommend integrating links into the body text. Special:Diff/906649894 was an attempt to fit in a wikilink to Erich Kästner Museum within the context of early/years in central Dresden. (Reverted in Special:Diff/906650643).  —Sladen (talk) 08:55, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Have tried Special:Diff/906654434 adding a single link to Erich Kästner Museum within Erich Kästner#See also for the moment.  —Sladen (talk) 09:09, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Looking back at Special:History/Erich Kästner, Special:Diff/896352950 appears to be fairly similar (though no wikilink), by , similarly reverted removed in Special:Diff/896352950.  —Sladen (talk) 09:18, 17 July 2019 (UTC)

message: By the way: where is written that he served with a "heavy artillery company" ? German heavy artillery (Fußartillerie) units then, at the lowest level, were not named company, but battery. --129.187.244.19 (talk) 12:56, 3 September 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: A battery is a group of hardware, a company is a group of soldiers operating them. This usage may have been historically different in Germany, although :de:Batterie (Militär) largely agrees with this description. It's not helpful to confuse English-speaking readers with "Fußartillery" or with non-standard usage of "battery". This paragraph, like so much else in the article, needs some sources. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 13:25, 3 September 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: o.k., but you won't argue that the artillery battery is also known in the english-speaking world. And the usage is similar, internationally, infantry branch eg. is divided in companies, artillery, whatever branch, in batteries. Usually. --2001:A61:2AAD:AC01:991D:7F17:929B:7D0E (talk) 16:28, 3 September 2019 (UTC)
