"burnt alive"

[edit]

I'm not 100% up on British English. I would have said "burned alive". But I'm not British. Adoring nanny (talk) 04:27, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Burnt alive is fine. Very quick addendum , "it's fine" from a spelling sense. Also as the article repeatedly uses a quote using "burned alive", burned is probably best for consistency. Also now realising this is a really old comment. -- LCU ActivelyDisinterested transmissions °co-ords° 15:45, 30 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Change: After the German occupation, Polish villagers participated in pogroms against Jews in 23 localities of the Łomża and Białystok areas of the Podlasie region, with varying degrees of German involvement.

To: After the German occupation, Polish villagers participated in pogroms against Jews in 23 localities of the Łomża and Białystok areas of the Podlaskie region, with varying degrees of German involvement.

Also: Podlaskie region should redirect to "Podlaskie voivodeship" not "podlachia". LEJ PO ŁYMPIE (talk) 02:25, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made.  Spintendo  23:05, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: A source would be required for this modification. Based on my research, this change is unsupported because the Podlaskie Voivodeship was not established until 1999. This means that during the event in question, the region was still "Podlasie". Also, please refrain from duplicating requests without adding additional information. Thanks.

Lead

A typo in PIS (it should be spelled as PiS, as the 'i' is just the equivalent of 'and'). Please switch the last fragment to: "The PiS party's controversial "history policy" has included criticism of these apologies, with President Andrzej Duda denouncing Komorowski's apology[sources].

Series of pogroms during German invasion 1941

[edit]

The pogrom was one of many. There were pogroms in the area between Romania and Estonia. The government of Romania instigated the crimes, the other lands were occupied by the Germans. The only book describing the pogroms, by Witold Medykowski, is referenced in this Wikipedia only as a source about Polish antisemitism, which ignores the majority of its content.

What point are you trying to make?
The section I think you are taking issue is, from what I gather from Jan T. Gross's book Neighbors. Could you specify?

Adding a section regarding the controversy in Jedwabne itself

[edit]

Would it be apt to add a section of how the debate played out within Jedwabne itself here or within the Jedwabne page. I plan to use The Neighbors Respond as the main source for the section. Chefs-kiss (talk) 15:34, 14 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
