Talk:List of Nazi concentration camps

number discrepancies
The numbers quoted in the list vary significantly from other numbers within wikipedia, esp. the Holocaust article. Maybe it is better to quote the full range of estimates and give a minimum and maximum total figure. --91.60.129.250 (talk) 15:15, 11 June 2015 (UTC)

Wehrmacht
Under responsible organizations, no mention is made of regular Wehrmacht (army) units. While the moomoo sinister units (SS, SA etc) were the most active, there were regular Werhmacht units that took part in mass killings Historygypsy (talk) 22:44, 11 November 2011 (UTC)hi My mane is Moomoo.

Drancy
Drancy is listed here as an extermination camp, while the source cited says it was internment / transit camp. Also, here the number of prisoners is said to be 65000 out of which 63000 was executed. The cited source says the total number of prisoners was 70000 out of which 65000 was deported to Auschwitz-Birkenau and Sobibor, apparently still alive. Is there some other sources to verify the current information, or should it be changed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.108.7.104 (talk) 00:14, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

Problem with "Sort by high/low" number
If you click the arrow to sort "number of deaths" (and presumably the other columns) by number, it sorts them strictly by number, not magnitude - e.g. 90 deaths ranks above 8, which ranks above 700,000. I don't know how to do it, but somebody needs to change it so that it takes account of the size of the number.

"Estimated prisoners"
In the table, one of the headings is "estimated prisoners". What does this mean? I ask this because, for example, for Auschwitz, the number in this column (400,000) is less than the number in the next column (estimated deaths: 1-1.5 million). This doesn't seem to make sense if "estimated prisoners" means the estimated total number of people that were imprisoned there. Are the figures wrong? if not, and "estimated prisoners" means something else, this isn't clear and perhaps there should be a footnote to explain? Ondewelle (talk) 19:07, 10 November 2008 (UTC)


 * The gas chambers were outside the camps. So, people who on arrival immediatley were sent to the gas chambers are in general not considered as prisoners of the concentration camp. Because the gas chambers were closely related to the concentration camps, these victims are considered as deaths of Auschwitz. Without this knowledge these numbers are indeed a little bit strange. Robvhoorn (talk) 21:10, 30 November 2008 (UTC)


 * This is not true. At least in Auschwitz I the incinerators are inside the fenced perimeter. Check the "Crematorium" part of the Interactive map of Auschwitz. astikain (talk) 16:20, 2 Feburary 2010 (UTC)

Could it also be taken to be the peak capacity of the camp at a given time? So, say, Camp X had 20,000 prisoners at any one time, but a total of 50,000 died there over 4 years. ? Saccerzd (talk) 20:32, 15 January 2010 (UTC) Saccerzd (talk) 21:53, 15 January 2010 (UTC)


 * No. It's the number of admissions i.e. how many people came in minus how many people left (alive obviously). This is a bit weird. The question remains: How can there be more deaths than prisoners? astikain (talk) 16:32, 2 Feburary 2010 (UTC)

Esterwegen
The German Wikipedia has a substantial article about a concentration camp at Esterwegen, which does not appear on this list: A2Kafir 04:31, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

Number of camps
I've brought the figure in the text in line with the number given in the sources, namely about 1,500 (not 15,000). Norvo (talk) 00:55, 21 November 2009 (UTC)


 * But that's not what the source says. It says "It is estimated that the Nazis established 15,000 camps in the occupied countries." That seems a little vague to me - who estimated this? A more reliable source is the 1967 list by the German Ministry of Justice, http://bundesrecht.juris.de/begdv_6/anlage_6.html#Seitenanfang, which lists 1679 camps and subcamps apparently for Großdeutschland only . I'm not sure if that extrapolates to 15,000 for all occupied countries; that seems a little high to me. &mdash; Sebastian 02:55, 23 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Actually, counting these isn't as easy as I thought. Many entries just say "x see y". Discounting these, I got 1232, but there also seem to be a considerable number of double entries such as #1623 and #1624. I am therefore writing "about 1200". &mdash; Sebastian 06:46, 23 December 2009 (UTC)


 * I'm striking my words "apparently for Großdeutschland only". While I'm not clear what the criteria were for the list, it clearly includes many entries from outside Großdeutschland. &mdash; Sebastian 07:16, 23 December 2009 (UTC)


 * There is indeed a considerable number of double entries in that list. Which is of course OK, as long as one doesn't sum them up indiscriminately. Quoting Peter Reif-Spirek & Bodo Ritscher, Gedenkstätte Buchenwald: "The commonly cited number of 1000 to 1200 sub-camps, which are said to have existed at the turn of the year 1944/45, is, however, a cumulative number, which does not account for the many Aussenlager which had been closed at the time." http://books.google.com/books?id=cs3onHL1qRoC&lpg=PA51&dq=1200%20aussenlager&hl=sv&pg=PA51#v=onepage&q&f=false Hexmaster (talk) 11:54, 3 September 2010 (UTC)
 * USHMM estimates that there were 44,000(!) concentration camps. see: https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/nazi-camps 185.182.71.32 (talk) 17:16, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Wikipedia defines most of these as other types of camps. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_concentration_camps note (a) 185.182.71.32 (talk) 17:20, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Following usage in reliable sources, this article is about the WVHA concentration camp system. Not all camps established by Nazi Germany or its allies. (t &#183; c)  buidhe  17:45, 10 August 2022 (UTC)

Archiving
I archived all topics that seemed to be resolved to /archive. I also archived the several discussions about Jasenovac. Some of these are obsolete, since that camp is not in this list anymore. The main question, however, whether Jasenovac should appear in this list, comes up repeatedly and is therefore not resolved. However, I think we can add a reference and explanation in the lead, which I will do now, and where I will also take the above discussion about into account. I hope that will solve the issue. &mdash; Sebastian 04:44, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

Juvenile concentration camps
As I was working with the German Government list, I realized that there also had been juvenile concentration camps (de:Jugendkonzentrationslager). We have articles on two of them, Moringen concentration camp and Uckermark concentration camp, but not on de:Jugendverwahrlager Litzmannstadt. I was wondering if they should be included in this list. &mdash; Sebastian 07:31, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

List of Nazi-German concentration camps → List of Nazi concentration camps —
 * Someone listed this move as uncontroversial. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 07:21, 30 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment. The proper naming of the Nazi-German (rather than Nazi) concentration camps in occupied Poland, was already explained by various international bodies including UNESCO, Yad Vashem, Institute of National Remembrance and two different governments. Please see the reasons given by UNESCO for renaming Auschwitz into "Auschwitz Birkenau. German Nazi Concentration and Extermination Camp (1940-1945)" featured in the "Polish death camp" controversy article (the last two paragraphs). It is to discourage the intentional misuse of the term Nazi. -- Poeticbent talk  15:59, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

 * This debate and that of Talk:Nazi_concentration_camps should be conducted in unison. The votes here are simple the opposite of the votes there. It's not constructive as the goal should be a common naming structure. I support the result of the discussion at Talk:Nazi_concentration_camps, whatever it may turnout to be, for the templated naming of this article. --Labattblueboy (talk) 06:41, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

 * Support from a classification point of view, this would only make sense if there had been (or were) other (non-German) Nazi concentration camps. I'm not aware of any, so the additional qualification seems redundant. Independently of that, the naming should follow the terminology most common in Wikipedia's target audience (i.e. the general public, not international buerocacies). It is my impression that "Nazi concentration camps" is both often used and well understood. Wefa (talk) 19:39, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

Jasenovac
The note at the top says that camps like Jasenovac are not included, and yet Jasenovac is included. What needs to be changed here?--Kotniski (talk) 16:10, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

 * Jasenovac was an extermination (not a labour camp) camp run and established by Croatian Ustashi. It should not be here.--71.163.237.38 (talk) 02:53, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

1st sentence and overall number again
The list of about 1,200 camps was drawn up by the Federal German Ministry of Justice (not the Ministry of the Interior). I've also altered that sentence to indicate that the camps and subcamps in that list are actually named.

As for the figure of 15,000 in the Jewishvirtuallibrary source, I really am left wondering whether there has been a misprint or whether it includes completely different kinds of camps in addition to concentration camps as ordinarily defined (that is, camps run by the SS and before 1935, by the SA). The difference between the two figures is staggering. The Jewishvirtuallibrary names only a relatively small number of the camps, and I really wonder how reliable the figure of 15,000 is.

Auschwitz-Birkenau 6 000 prisoners?

 * Revision as of 00:39, 26 August 2010 by . Vandal warned. — Matalea (talk) 15:40, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

Confusing designation →Auschwitz-Birkenau
The list here states that Auschwitz-Birkenau was only an extermination camp. This is misleading because it original primary purpose was to be a forced labor camp. It was only post 1942 when Birkenau II had four largest gas chambers (before that Auschwitz I had a single converted air raid shelter) that it was also used as an extermination center. But it continued to operate as an arbietslager (hence the camp gate entrance). It is misleading to to just homogenise the title under one heading because it denigrates the history of Auschwitz-Birkenau and that it was also the center of a huge Nazi network of sub camps operated under IG Faben. It was not just an extermination camp because it had a large inmate population (who died being marched away from the advancing Russians in Jan 1945). Extermination camps did not have large inmate numbers except a few dozen Sondercomandos. Not all those sent to Auschwitz-Birkenau were killed automatically on arrival such as camps like Treblinka, Sobibor or Belzec. But this list does not make that clear. Clarity is what helps explain the Holocaust.

It is also a fallacy because if Auschwitz-Birkenau is a death camp then all death camps must be like Auschwitz-Birkenau, which of course they were not. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.145.5.223 (talk) 00:11, 25 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I marked this up for discussion and in true Wikipedia style nothing happens. Typical. This is a talk about misleading information. I am not disputing that Auschwitz was not an extermination camp I disputing the use of the label to just call it only an extermination camp because it was also part of a massive network of forced labor arbeitslager. It therefore had a dual role so it's wrong to just blanket label things as it airbrushes history. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.147.57.33 (talk) 18:32, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

You should include
Topovske Šupe in list. According to what I know, that was transit camp. I would add it, but I am not very experienced with tables.--Antidiskriminator (talk) 12:47, 28 November 2010 (UTC)

Whoever edited it last (This page was last modified on 22 February 2012 at 15:50.) put a very ignorant thing which i shall copy and paste.

Table

hittler was never real retards Extermination camps are marked with light red, Concentration camps are marked with light blue, Labor camps are marked with Gray, while Transit camps and Collective points remain unmarked. Nazi ghettos are generally not included. According to data presented in the table below, an estimated 4,251,500 people lost their lives in the camps.

Welzheim concentration camp

Population type column
Would it be possible to add a "population type" column (pows, jews, gypsys etc..) or were the populations in most of the camps mixed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.132.199.18 (talk) 17:38, 1 May 2011 (UTC)

The Citadel of Huy should probably be added here, but I'm not sure what it should exactly be termed as. Would "detainment camp" be the most appropriate term? Brigade Piron (talk) 14:56, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

adds up to 4 759 963 total deaths
The list gives a total of 4 759 963 deaths in those 71 camps, i.e. 4.76 million.

When ranges were given, the average number was taken for summing up. --91.60.129.250 (talk) 12:24, 11 June 2015 (UTC)

KZ_Nohra
Apparently de:KZ_Nohra was the first camp. Can that be confirmed? Agathoclea (talk) 16:42, 9 January 2017 (UTC)

Nazis vs German
It took me a long time to find this article due to the misleading in the title. The camps are commonly known as 'German' i.e. German concentration camps or German death camps. You may say 'German Nazi death camp' - but people associated the war with the Germany/Germans vs the Allies. Not Nazis vs Allies as there was no 'Naziland' at that time. Please correct it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.12.188.154 (talk) 08:51, 23 January 2017 (UTC)

"Naziland" is called Nazi Germany. There is nothing to correct. Dimadick (talk) 17:04, 21 February 2017 (UTC) Of course it should be corrected. A nazi can be anyone from any country, but here we are talking about Germans. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 49.177.2.232 (talk) 02:34, 1 February 2019 (UTC)

Auschwitz - rec. arrivals
The estimated deaths for Auschwitz-Birkenau are "1,100,000 min.[11] out of 6,000,000 rec. arrivals [12]". What the hell does that mean? Recent arrivals? Did 6 million people arrive at Auschwitz? Recent compared to what? Is it "recommended arrivals"? Recommended by whom? It's just absolute gibberish. Retardednamingpolicy (talk) 19:48, 2 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Abbreviation "rec." stands for 'recorded' arrivals, NOT the 'recent', and NOT the 'recommended' arrivals. The overwhelming majority of prisoners were murdered within hours of arrival. Only about 10 percent of the deportees from transports organized by the Reich Main Security Office (RSHA) were registered and assigned to the Birkenau barracks.[1]  Poeticbent  talk 20:25, 2 March 2018 (UTC)

 * It was still internment, and I found at least 3 people who were imprisoned in Groningen, who were quickly moved to Borkum, so it is not "voluntary labour." That's the whole point about semantics and why casting doubt on a whole article knowing very well that if you pigeon hole it you'll end up with a smaller list is reprehensible. And I still don't see a specific list from you with the mistake. I've had it, because people like you make me sick ! KittenKlub (talk) 10:08, 10 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Please see WP:NPA. The definition of "Nazi concentration camp" is given here. (t &#183; c)  buidhe  10:13, 10 July 2020 (UTC)


 * The article seems to contain various types of internment camps, plus killing centres (extermination camps). The name of the page is more narrow, the "Nazi concentration camps". The approach could be to narrow the scope of the article or change the title. --K.e.coffman (talk) 01:18, 11 July 2020 (UTC)


 * I've removed for the Disputed tag for two reasons: (1) WP:DRIVEBY -- the tag was added without identifying the problem well enough for it to be fixed and no explanation for the tag was initially provided on the talk page (As I came to explain my detagging on this page, I see that a high-level explanation has been provided) (2) While "not all of the camps on the list are Nazi concentration camps" may or may not be true, it's highly misleading to tag the entire article as factually inaccurate;  the fact of the existence of Nazi concentration camps, which are noteworthy and should be listed, is not in dispute. A better approach would be an inline tag to any specific camp listed that may not belong on this list with either with the  or  tag and an explanation on this talk page. --Chefallen (talk) 03:41, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
 * The accuracy of this article is so bad that it really should be deleted per WP:TNT, there is very little salvageable here. I checked two sources (for Buchenwald) and  (Berlin-Marzahn)—neither supported the content. I suspect these issues are systemic, so tagging individual entries would require tagging most of them. (t &#183; c)  buidhe  03:49, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Firstly, blowing up the article is not the way to go. Firstly, the list is comprehensive and virtually every entry on the list is supported by sources and/or links to referenced articles and external sits about the camp. Naturally, we can examine each one, to verify their reliability. Any that are determined to be dubious can be tagged, or if patently wrong by consensus, removed. Simply asserting that the accuracy of the whole article is bad or that almost all are problematic is your unsubstantiated opinion.
 * Secondly, the definition of camps that you are pointing to on USHMM indicates that there were five types of Nazi camps:
 * 1. Concentration camps
 * 2. Forced-labor camps
 * 3. Transit camps
 * 4. Prisoner-of-war camps
 * 5. Killing centers
 * With the exception of POW camps, this list distinguishes between the four types of camps listed and even color-codes them. So, as K.e. coffman suggests, renaming the article to Nazi camps or something along those lines removing the qualifier "concentration" also has validity. I would agree that that does not preclude working on the redefined article to improve its quality--Chefallen (talk) 04:18, 12 July 2020 (UTC)


 * "The list is comprehensive" wrong, according to USHMM there were more than 40,000 such sites, having a list of them all is neither practical nor useful. The linked article does not say what you think it does, after listing five of the types it says "Other types of incarceration sites numbered in the tens of thousands. These included but were not limited to early camps; “euthanasia” facilities for the murder of disabled patients; Gestapo, SS and German justice detention centers; so-called “Gypsy” camps, and Germanization facilities." (t &#183; c)  buidhe  04:40, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I started off thinking that WP:TNT suggestion was not the solution to the many issues with this list and that the article should be improved. As I was writing what I thought needed improvement I convinced myself that WP:TNT is the best solution. This is just a poorly referenced, incomplete mess filled with inaccuracy and ambiguity. Some articles don't age gracefully and this really reflects 16 years and 654 editors. I believe the article should be retained while separate new articles/lists are written for the different camp types. This is an important topic and the goal should at or near featured list quality. I don't see how this could be brought to that level from where it is now. Respectfully submitted,   // Timothy ::  talk  05:22, 12 July 2020 (UTC)

"*List of subcamps of Auschwitz
 * There were almost 1,000 Nazi concentration camps proper. It might not be a bad idea rather than trying to have a unified list, replace the article content with a brief intro and a link to the existing lists on parts of the camp system:
 * List of subcamps of Buchenwald
 * List of subcamps of Dachau
 * List of subcamps of Flossenbürg
 * List of subcamps of Gross-Rosen
 * List of subcamps of Kraków-Płaszów
 * List of subcamps of Majdanek
 * List of subcamps of Mauthausen
 * List of subcamps of Mittelbau
 * List of subcamps of Natzweiler-Struthof
 * List of subcamps of Neuengamme
 * List of subcamps of Ravensbrück
 * List of subcamps of Sachsenhausen
 * List of subcamps of Stutthof"

Most of these lists would look like the Flossenburg one if more fully developed (the Flossenburg list is 52,859kb and I stopped in the middle), which would be unsuitable for a single article. (t &#183; c)  buidhe  05:35, 12 July 2020 (UTC)


 * Yes, there is value in restructuring this page into a platform for links to other lists of the various camps, with a suitable introduction about the different types of camps, and the vast numbers of subcamps providing the rationale for not attempting to list and categorize every one of them in this one article. I see that there are other "list of lists" of this sort, such as Timeline of World War II, so there is precedent and it is an approach that I would support. --Chefallen (talk) 15:25, 12 July 2020 (UTC)

“Main camp” list of links needs punctuation/spaces in mobile version
When I view the webpage in Safari on my iPhone, in the list of camps under the “main caps“ title, there are no spaces or punctuation marks between the names of the camps, so it’s all one big String of characters

The links work correctly – I think someone just needs to put in a semicolon in the space between each link / Camp name. Dgrrr (talk) 15:10, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

Have a great day! Thank you for looking at our website. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.27.80.138 (talk) 19:21, 13 December 2022 (UTC)

Romani
Romani people are not listed under the prisoners classification. It may be important to add them, especially since Romani are underrepresented in discussions of the Holocaust and Nazi concentration camps. Gordonap (talk) 15:50, 4 April 2024 (UTC)
