I'm sorry. I am editing it now.Valleyspring (talk) 06:52, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

I hope you won't delete it. I had a hard time finding reliable information on this individual. Also, I found info on wikipedia, Theresienstadt, but was told not to quote from wiki.!!Valleyspring (talk) 06:59, 16 December 2012 (UTC)

Obscure Nazi names added to wikipedia. Hi, editors. I am reposting this for several articles that have been contested which I have started. The reason is that I only do this in my spare time, and often I cannot find good information on wikipedia, except that which I discover on polish wikipedia or German wikipedia. If you would prefer to make a 'redirect' to those pages, that is acceptable. The only reason that I make these pages is in the hope that someone else with more info will also post a reference. These are all obscure names, yet they all played an impt role in the Holocaust.

weird grammar
"As an overseer, he worked in Theresienstadt with his wife Hildegard, who was allegedly able to kill prisoners with their bare hands." WHOSE bare hands? In this sentence "theirs" means either the prisoners' or the couple's. Did Hildegard kill the prisoners using the prisoners' own hands? Did she kill the prisoners using her and her husband's hands? When the sex of the subject is known, it is absurd (well, more absurd than usual) to give in to the PC-plural craze. We know Hildegard was a (murderous) WOMAN, so she used HER bare hands.
