Emil Lang (fighter ace) → Emil Lang – There are only two Emil Langs: the other one is a cartoon character who doesn't even have his own Wikipedia page - but is redirected to the page with a list of characters. The real-life Emil Lang thus should be in the main space. – Pudeo' 21:54, 2 August 2014 (UTC)

Neo-Nazi publication
I removed a non RS citation to Schaulen: link and replaced it with a Cn tag. For background, please see: User talk:Hawkeye7/Archive 2016. Please let me know if there are any concerns. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:59, 27 February 2017 (UTC)

Timeline faulty?
The article states that: "He received the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross on 22 November 1943 for his 119 victories to that time."

However, I found an appearance of him in "Die Deutsche Wochenschau" from Decembre 1943, have a look: www.youtube.com/watch?v=LanhocYBlns#t=0m46s

You can see a sign which holds "100". The German speaker says that during this fight he shot 8 enemy planes and reached the 100. This does not match to 119 hits in November 1943?


 * According to the sources, Prien, Stemmer, Rodeike, Bock, Matthews and Foreman, Lang claimed his 100th aerial victory on 3 November. Even if the date of the "Die Deutsche Wochenschau" is correctly dated, a four week delay between when the images were filmed and when the Wochenschau was aired, seems reasonable. I do not see a discrepancy MisterBee1966 (talk) 05:41, 15 March 2021 (UTC)
