Talk:Trochenbrod

Distortion of the role of local people
This article distorts evidence from newspaper article (http://www.praguepost.com/P03/2004/Art/1007/opin1.php/) which it cites.

There is no mention of the nationality of the local police force in the article which is cited as evidence. Actually, article by Mr. Katchanovski argues that in "Everything is Illuminated" Jonathan Safran Foer mistakenly overemphasizes the antisemitism of Ukrainians.

I suggest: (1) removing nationality of the police collaborationist forces who helped nazis in executing Jewish people, (2) adding a section about the role of Ukrainian partisans (primarily Nationalist, but also Communist) in rescuing Jewish people of Trochenbrod and helping them to resist nazis. --Gennadiy Kornev (talk) 20:26, 23 August 2008 (UTC)


 * I do not support removing of the nationality of the police force, however mention of the resistance to the Nazis and assistance of the Trochymbrod Jews by Ukrainian partisans (probably UPA) is warranted. --Yakym (talk) 20:09, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

Official name: Sofievka or Trochenbrod?
If I understood right, the exact village name was Sofievka (please, check out the polish article at pl.wiki), then the Yddish people nicknamed it as Trochenbrod (or maybe, better, in german: "Trockenbrod" = dry bread). So, what was the official name of the village? --Holapaco77 (talk) 17:21, 25 November 2016 (UTC)


 * According to the official list of settlements, published by the Polish government in WOŁYŃSKI DZIENNIK WOJEWÓDZKI (1936) for the Wołyń Voivodeship (1921–39), the settlement was called Zofjówka. It was located in the gmina Silno, powiat Łuck of Województwo Wołyńskie. According to website wolyn.ovh.org – the population of Zofjówka in 1939 was 4,000. See full description of Zofjówka in the Polish language, with location map, and a short list of prominent individuals.  Poeticbent  talk 18:52, 25 November 2016 (UTC)
