Talk:Asche zu Asche

message: "The song is about the crucifixion of Jesus Christ." Is there any source for this? The song's theme bears much resemblance to the crucifixion of Chirst, but his figure itself is never mentioned and the song departs heavily from most accounts on Christ's death or supposed resurrection (10 days instead of 3, and the figure of the song seeks vengeance). --82.139.47.117 15:16, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Category talk:Canadian activists

message: Note: It was decided to make other sub-categories rather than using a Canadian social justice activists category.  See here for the results of the discussion.  Please create Canadian LGBT-rights activists, Canadian free speech activists, Canadian anti-poverty activists, etc, as required instead.  If you make a sub-category, please remember to make it a sub-category of Canadian activists by including :Category:Canadian activists in the page.
Avoid placing politicians into any activist category unless they have done some form of notable activism outside of their elected office (preferably noteworthy enough to justify a stand-alone article in the absence of political fame). Politicians are easily found through other categories and all politicians or their supporters would consider themselves to be advocates on the side of good works. Otherwise, the categories will become too large and lose meaning. Deet 15:19, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Well I thought so but an editor undid my attempt to merge them all to the char name, so setting this back to a vote again.  If it helps people decide, an example of a character with multiple hero names having one article under their 'real name' would be Kyle Rayner.  Another article I've worked on with that same standard is Eric Masterson (comics), a third would be Dick Grayson, a fourth Jean Grey.  All are comics characters that have used more than more superhero name over the decades, and the wiki-editors decided to lump all incarnations under their given name, and refer to their superhero incarnations below that. -Markeer 23:38, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

Talk:List of subcamps of Gross-Rosen

message: This list is almost impossible to use or maintain. Evidently it was generated from an alphabetical list of the Polish names of the camps, but the name that appears in most cases is the German one -- thus no longer in alphabetical order. A simple visual scan revealed that Parschnitz appears twice, but when I went to edit, I was stymied by the multiple listings. I suggest that both names will appear alphabetically, in two separate lists: i.e. DE (PL) and PL(DE). Otherwise the number will be vastly inflated.

Talk:Pomeranians (tribe)

message: moved from the main article
reasons: NPOV, no references and particularly the accusation of a "genocide"
After 1945, and the partial extermination and expulsion of the German population resident in Pomerania for 800 years, the Polish state, which acquired this province under the Potsdam agreement, has consistently claimed that Pomerania was originally Polish territory. This is totally false. The Pomeranians were slavic, but not Polish. was a historic fusion of German and Wendish peoples, and claims raised after 1945 by successive Polish governments are attempts to justify their genocide of the resident population. --Mickey195 22:06, 20 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Untitled

message: I see this painting by Gerson and I wonder how realistic this painting is or if this is simple propaganda/fantasy of the 19th century (nationalism)..? It claims "Pomeranians ousted by the Germans to the Baltic Islands", while the article states "as many native Pomeranians were slowly and gradually assimilated and discontinued the use of their Slavic language and culture.".. There is obviously a discrepancy.. And I even wonder, which Baltic Islands? If this painting has no real historical background, then it shouldn't be used here, especially for neutrality.. --Jonny84 (talk) 23:39, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: It is historically correct that Slavs were being pushed out by the German settlers, there were numerous municipal decrees forcing them outside of towns, preventing them from engaging in certain economic activities, etc. As for the painting itself, it's a romanticized depiction and is no more accurate as many 19th century paintings of that sort. One great example of fantasy is the image of vikings wearing horned helmets, yet based on archeological evidence, no such helmet was ever found and no contemporary image of one exists. I see a lot of these romanticized paintings on many historical articles. --E-960 (talk) 18:28, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Ronald Scobie

message: I recall in the early 1970s there being a Doctor Who series that had a "General Scobie" (the pronunciation as in Gobi sticks in my memory but I can't recall it being spelt) as a villain character. From how I recall the plot, the General, as a celebrity, had a figure at a waxworks in uniform that roused the Doctor's suspicion early on when it was seen to have a wrist watch on ('who would go to the trouble of putting a wrist watch on a dummy?' is how I recall the Doctor's question). The 'General' comes to life commanding an uprising army of robots disguised as waxworks and tailor mannequins but is eventually killed when he is literally unmasked as a robot in the final episode. The Scobie of the article had been dead a few years (1969), making me wonder if the writer conveniently used his name and personality for the story, avoiding better known figures like Montgomery who were still alive and could have objected to being portrayed. Both the waxwork and the actor who played the General seemed made up in near resemblance of the real life Scobie (dark hair and moustache I recall). If someone could investigate and find published evidence of a link, it might make a 'Cultural Reference' detail in this article.Cloptonson (talk) 20:15, 5 February 2019 (UTC)
