The Holocaust
The article currently contains no reference to the Holocaust, I believe it ought to. I intend to add the following quotation, with additional commentary. I would appreciate your opinion.


 * "In addition to the “emergency” deportations from Zala County and other parts of Southern Hungary, the Hungarian Ministry of the Interior also decided to deport the Jews of Godollo, the summer residence of Horthy. The suggestion for this special Aktion in Godollo, which because of its location northeast of Budapest should actually have taken place as part of the operations in Zone III, if not Zone IV, allegedly came from within the Governor’s circle. The objective apparently was to enable Horthy to walk around the town without having to see any Jews and to make it possible for him to personally experience the consequences of the anti-Jewish measures."

Braham, Randolph L. _The Politics of Genocide: The Holocaust in Hungary_. (Volumn 1, pp675) New York: Columbia University Press, 1981, 2 vols.


 * "Godollo, Pest-Pilis-Solt-Kiskun dist. Hungary.

Jews settled in the first half of the 19th cent. to market the produce of local farmers. When Francis Joseph I chose G. as a vacation site in 1867, they became suppliers to the court and to the aristocrats who followed and built mansions in G. A Jewish school operated in 1857-1944 and a synagogue was built in 1870. The J. pop. was 195 in 1880 and 276 in 1930 after reaching a peak of 451 in 1920. After World War I, the Jews were severely persecuted, particularly when Endre Laszlo was appointed district commissioner of G. in 1923. There Jews were deported to Auschwitz via Hatvan on 12 June 1944."

Why does this article define The 10th ASEM Foreign Ministers' Meeting after linking to an article that offers an explanation? If a dynamically-generated standfirst/synopsis paragraph cannot be included, we would be better to remove the content relating to matters handled (and edited) elsewhere.

Why does it say in the article that the Israeli flag was scratched out on the World Peace Gong? The Israeli flag is clearly visible above the Hungarian flag at the top of the gong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.132.92.91 (talk) 18:29, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

The Town Ghetto
The town ghetto is referenced by the EHRI Ghetto project with links to Wikidata and Yad Vashem.

My link to Wikidata was removed, but I do not understand why. Surely Wikipedia can trust Wikidata? I will wait a while for a response here before again adding information about the location of the ghetto, which is not referenced at all in the town itself in any meaningful way.
