Talk:Esther Béjarano

Untitled
Bejarano is a Spanish name (perhaps a sefardite name, as it was common among Sp. Jews to have a genticilice as family name), but the article does not explain the reason why Loewy (which seems askenazi) turns to Bejarano. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.46.192.251 (talk) 07:30, 7 April 2013 (UTC)

Bejarano
Any reason for the wrong acute accent (Béjarano)? Maybe from the spanish? Please do some research on that and you will find out there should not be an accent. Perhaps take a look at the webpage for her book http://www.laika-verlag.de/allgemein/esther-bejarano-erinnerungen -- 217.227.214.43 (talk) 19:27, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

Ravensbrueck
Many facts of Esther’s Life arę missing, eg. that she was transferred from Auschwitz to another camp in Ravensbrueck in northern Germany in November 1943. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.192.215.72 (talk • contribs) 00:20, 11 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes. This is a wiki: please add with reliable sources. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:40, 15 July 2021 (UTC)

Esther's support for Palestine and BDS
The article currently mentions that she immigrated to Palestine, but doesn't elaborate on that or her words and activities afterwards in support of Palestinians and the BDS movement. Here's some available sources for people to add information about that on, as I don't have the time to do so, but thought it was important to her life and history.


 * Why Auschwitz survivor Esther Bejarano supports BDS - The Electronic Intifada
 * Auschwitz Survivor Supports BDS: 'I Have Experienced Fascism' - TeleSUR English
 * Esther Bejarano, one of last survivors of Auschwitz women's orchestra, dies at 96 - i24 News

So I hope these are useful to others. Silver seren C 17:39, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
 * We can't use Telesur. Same probably goes for Electronic Intifada. See WP:RSP. Robby.is.on (talk) 23:57, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
 * EI can be used with attribution and as for Telesur, is there reason to believe that reporting on a German's statements about Palestine would be biased and misrepresented on a Bolivian propaganda news site? Especially when dealing with direct quotes. Either way, there may be other sources out there as well, I didn't do a deep dive. Silver  seren C 03:55, 18 July 2021 (UTC)
 * is there reason to believe that reporting on a German's statements about Palestine would be biased and misrepresented on a Bolivian propaganda news site There isn't really any wiggle-room for the use of deprecated sources such as Telesur: "use of the source is generally prohibited." Its deprecation also means it's "considered generally unreliable" which implies we can't be sure the quotes are not fabricated. Robby.is.on (talk) 18:35, 18 July 2021 (UTC)
