The first branch of the Advanced School of the NSDAP

[edit]
I guess I should talk about this here? I keep trying to add this bit of info about the Institute for Study of the Jewish Question being the first branch of a projected Advanced School of the NSDAP (Hohe Schule) and Beyond My Ken keeps removing it. The first time he explained it by saying that it needed sources, I re-added it arguing that I had seen it in another part of Wikipedia (what is good for one entry should be good for every entry, I thought), and he removed it again arguing that "Wikipedia is not a reliable source". Which would be fine and dandy, except that he completely ignored that this time I had added sources, the same sources that the other Wikipedia entry uses. This is what one of them (The Jewish Museum Berlin, here: https://www.jmberlin.de/raub-und-restitution/en/glossar_i.php) says: "[The Institute] was the first branch of the planned elite National Socialist university "Hohe Schule."" I cannot access the other one, but this is what another article by the same author (which you can see here: https://www.errproject.org/docs/ERRParisLibraryLists2017.03.01.pdf) says: "Rosenberg had inaugurated the Institute for Research on the Jewish Question (...) in Frankfurtam Main, the only Hohe Schule institute that operated during the war".
How many more sources would I need for this small tidbit of info to prevent Beyond My Ken from removing it? Ten? Twenty? A sworn declaration by Ian Kershaw, Richard Evans, Ernst Piper and David Irving would be enough? Whatever it is, please ask and I shall try to find it.

WP:Wikipedia is not a reliable source, however, if a sourced pieced of information is in one article, it can be added to another article as long as the source comes with it. For copyright purposes, the origin of the information (i.e. the other Wikipedia article) must be acknowledged. This can be done with the "copied" template, or, more simply, by mentioning the source in the edit summary, i.e. "adding information and source from XXXXX". See WP:Copying within Wikipedia for more information. Beyond My Ken (talk) 22:13, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Will do. I'll add the information, its source and I'll mention the Wikipedia source in the edit summary. (62.57.34.204 (talk) 10:34, 17 July 2020 (UTC))[reply]
