this criteria. The content of an article needs to be fully sourced, I also fully support this criteria. For an editor to pass judgment on the quality of a source is a sensitive topic and should be handled with care. Subsequently deleting information derived from such a source, deleting reference to such a source, in my opinion is not (always) the best solution for the article nor in benefit of our readers. Deletion of information/sources creates a vacuum, empty space, which over time will be filled and serviced by other means and media. I strongly believe that Knowledge (XXG) provides a unique opportunity to counterbalance these so called dubious claims and sources by proving them wrong with other, potentially better sources. We should not deprive Knowledge (XXG) of this strength. From my personal point of view, a good article incorporates these elements. Passing judgment on a source, gives our readers the impression that we editors elevate ourselves above our audience. It portrays an attitude of we know better, we know what is good for you. I think our readers are intelligent and should have the right to make up their own opinions. From an evolutionary perspective, I think this is the better path to rid the world from those dubious claims brought forward by some sources. Cheers

If that is the case with quite a bit of the article, you can place a {{refimprove}} tag at the top, but don't use a {{cn}} tag on every uncited paragraph. If you reasonably suspect a particular bit of information is dubious, you might use the {{dubious}} tag, or in the same situation, you might use the {{cn}} tag. But some material being in an article for years without a citation is not justification for its wholesale deletion. It may in fact be entirely correct, and you are not helping to build the encyclopedia (however flawed it may be) by just deleting such material. On a positive note, IMHO it is good that you are deleting citations from unreliable bloggy sources like axishistory and feldgrau. But just because material is sourced to them doesn't mean it is wrong. Thanks,

1377:. A superficially similar issue cropped up earlier in the year, which was dealt with on the MILHIST T/P as a group task. It concerned Italian divisional formations which had been extensively peacocked, wording sometimes diametrically in variance with given sources, and the like. The issue was easier to resolve as it was a single editor (since banned, I believe) who had done the damage. They had intimate links with the rather dubious Commando Supremo website, and much info had been directly copied from there. This problem is more ingrained, as there have been multiple editors on the WSS articles, and the problems go deeper. I am unsure if a MILHIST task group is appropriate yet. I may be wrong. 1821:. Now that is an FA, and any such removal should have been raised on talk first. Your characterisation of Williamson as a fanboi is a bit extreme, IMO. I will start to get irritated if this type of action continues. But that is the area you are going to come unstuck on. Really, a. it was basic information about the ORBAT of the division, and b. it was clear from the cite bombing that it is partially cited by a number of sources. In general, I'm pleased you guys are doing this work, but don't start pissing other editors (like me) off by taking BOLD action where the matter isn't clear-cut. Cheers, 1987:

an earl, a captain in the Coldstream Guards and was going to collect two armoured cars and lead them against the Russians. He also guaranteed that the BFC men would be in no trouble with the British authorities, telling them that Britain would be at war with the Russians within a few days.'. When the Corps members refused to follow him, Claye took Alexander MacKinnon, one of the Free Corps soldiers, as a driver, and headed west in a stolen vehicle. He discarded his German uniform and surrendered to a British airborne unit somewhere west of

2000:'s book 'Renegades' says that the BFC were in Dresden when the British bombing raid started on the evening of 12th February 1945, were soon afterwards arrested en masse because one of their members claimed to have prior knowledge of the raid, and then traveled from Dresden to Berlin on 24th February. Which certainly does not tie in with them fighting in present-day Poland on 16th and 17th February. I suggest deleting the statement that the BFC were involved in Operation Sonnenwende. 1320:

(That's a major issue on Div Hitlerjugend's page, where Latimer quotes from Meyer, and Latimer's article has over 20 refs in the page.) Separately, we need to discuss what to do with dubious claims sourced to works by various SS admirers, such as Yerger, Williamson, Agte, (others?), etc. BTW, I did get feedback from the

excellent material collected on your user page. I am thinking we stick to the less visited formations first, do stylistic cleanups, and refer to MILHIST on sources as part of "phase II". You may wish to present a case to the guys and girls there on the sources issues, as you have already done such good research there. Hope this helps. Cheers! Simon

2583: 1054:. 12th SS looks fairly sane, but will work through it and others. Knights cross holders bios are fairly bad at the moment. I will not be directly removing sources, merely cutting the more self-pitying rubbish that appears to be the Neo-Nazi idea of literary style. I think we should co-ordinate. Regards 2221:

K.e.: this article was in pretty poor shape and your recent edits brought it back to my attention. It is getting in better shape but still needs work. It could use more details as to his time in the SS and his life. The quotes give some powerful information but there are too many of them. If you have

K.e, lets stick to our own rules here. "Mode of operation: Exercise discernment, especially around well-tended articles or those that are GA or FA.

734:

As an aside, what does it mean then that "unsourced material may be challenged or removed?" Would it not be easier to remove the unsourced/dubious material, and then let interested editors build up the article using reliable sources? I've seen that some of these articles are extremely well researched

568:

G'day, sorry but there appears to be some sort of misunderstanding about what should be deleted on WP, and I just want to clarify it before this gets too far down the track. If someone has added material to an article (and WP:BLP]] doesn't apply) and it hasn't been cited, then you have a few options.

1596:

I also agree on discernment. For high-profile or well-tended articles, we could take any content/source removal to the Talk page first, rather than editing outright. One of my outstanding items of this nature it to close out on Peiper/Agte. In any case, for virtue of being high-profile articles, the

I agree that unit histories can be used with caution for non-controversial statements, such as: unit captured the city; unit advanced north; so-and-so was promoted; etc. In this case, my proposal is to keep both the statement and the source. But when Kurt Meyer, say, writes in his memoirs or a unit

Not as far as I can work out. I think the best approach is to systematically deal with all Waffen SS formations which are featured on WP. That may be the best initial approach. Then deal with other topic areas which need attention. I would suggest individual SS and party bios to be next priority. We

Well, people are on WP for different reasons. I write articles, on subjects that I want to right articles about. And it takes a lot of time to source and write quality articles.

A heavy battle ensued, with the "Wiking" and the "Totenkopf" seeing many of the Red Army tanks destroyed.

K.e. be careful with the "sense of urgency" and wiping out article text. Some of what you have found is of a nature where it is easy to make a determination of the course of action to take. But, other text is not clear-cut. Especially if someone like MisterBee1966 has been working on an article you

The body of such claims is so vast on Knowledge (XXG), that the best way I've found to deal with them is to remove the dubious claims and then rebuild (or let others rebuild) the articles with reliable sources. I'm sorry that this approach comes across as unfriendly or discourteous – that is not my

I just recently found out that the exculpatory language most likely originated with his acquaintance Hans Gisevius who penned an account in 1947 where he referred to Nebe's Einsatzgruppe command as serving 'at the front'.

Points 5 and 6, examples may need consensus. I would not recommend we do all these points at once. point 1 to 4 as immediate action. I recommend a gradualist approach here, and we take some material that is covered in your latter points on a case by case basis for consensus. I see this as a work in

I would say that we continue the path which has been broadly hammered out above, and start with the stylistic issues.

Thank you for your note. Yes, I was surprised about how little I was able to salvage as I was editing the article.

What is the explicit question I am being asked to answer? I believe that I had already expressed my view earlier, but for the record I gladly repeat how I view Knowledge (XXG) and how I think it works, or at least should work. The content of an article needs to be neutrally worded, I fully support

After repulsing all Soviet attempts to break through near the town of Novaya-Buda, the 5 SS "Wiking" rearguard split up and began withdrawing under cover of darkness. Advancing through "Hell's Gate", the "Wiking" came under heavy fire. The division suffered heavy losses in men and materials during

Within thirty minutes, almost half of the men of the regiment had fallen. Despite this, they still captured the hill. 1909:

I believe we are thinking along the same lines; I do agree with Peacemaker67 that the characterisation of Williamson (and in my opinion, Yerger) in the same vein as Agte is a bit extreme. They have written books for Osprey Publishing and Schiffer Publishing. As to the work on the articles we are

I think that at the very least both non-NPOV language and dubious unsourced claims (destroyed 100 tanks; annihilated an enemy division; led from the front; etc) should be removed. Where we may need to get consensus from other members is what to do with "dubious claims sourced to dubious tertiary

For Waffen-SS divisions, I would start with 1 through 5 (although K.e. I know you have already been working on them) as they should get the most traffic. And Irondome, I agree there are a lot of "less attended" articles which don't get much attention; I am surprised at times when I run across

I was asked to comment on this discussion on my talk page by K.e.coffman. Given the amount of fanboy nonsense in articles on the Waffen-SS, I think that there's a solid case for removing dubious-looking and unreferenced material, and then rebuilding the article. Regarding the material

366:

I took a peek at your edit history and noticed that you have done a lot of work on German units in WW2. In the past I did a lot of work on German and Soviet OBs, I own Samuel W. Mitcham's Hitlers Legions and the series of books by Victor Madej. If I can be of help let me know.

Since we don't seem to agree, would you mind if I ask for a third opinion? 2685:, and instead was referring to another Knowledge (XXG) article as a 'source', which was not referenced either since 2011/2012.
