The references in this article have become something of a mess. I have gone through the list of books etc and fixed nurmerous errors and enhanced some.
I am keen to tackle sorting out the actual article references which are a mix of Harvard and adhoc references. If noone objects, I'm going to jump in and do that.
I have found that using direct references in the text, and not Harvard, seems to last better here as more editors understand it. BoonDock (talk) 20:02, 21 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I know I’m a little late on responding here but for what it’s worth I say 100% you should/that would be a very much needed and positive contribution. OgamD218 (talk) 07:48, 15 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Awesome. I'll take that as permission then. BoonDock (talk) 15:19, 18 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Harvard references are dreadful. Prone to error and decay. DuncanHill (talk) 14:14, 6 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There description of the article has been extensively vandalised can someone fix this? Tea4life (talk) 15:28, 2 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
How exactly had it been vandalized? A quick read looks fine. I see no history of vandalism in the edit history? BoonDock (talk) 14:47, 3 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The article seems curiously lopsided. For instance, the 'Imperial involvement' section seems far longer than is merited. The section on Canada alone - which let's face it was of pretty marginal importance by any standards - is as long on that on Concentration Camps, which seems bizarre to say the least. I suppose that this sort of thing often occurs in Wikipedia articles: someone with specific interests comes along and thinks a particular aspect of an article deserves more attention. Then, unless there is an overall editor, that greatly inflated contribution will stay there however insignificant it is compared to other important aspects. So would someone like to do some serious and drastic editing? BobBadg (talk) 18:10, 25 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
