not sure if the story about the pope telling a guy to be proud to be a jew is verifiable enough to be on wikipedia effectively the only source is one anonymous article by a person who claims to have been directly involved technically there are two articles but the one from relies only on the one from as its sole source and does not indicate that the author of the did any independent research beyond finding the article on the internet generally wikipedia does not consider a single unverified first person account to be sufficient and that should be especially true when it is anonymous according to the article there should be many many witnesses after years neither the pope nor any of the vatican officials there with him nor any of the or so visitors waiting has confirmed that this incident ever happened some of the witnesses especially the german soldiers might have died before the story was first published however if it was true there should have been at least some surviving witnesses the lack of any independent verification makes the entire story rather doubtful
