What? No mention of Marr's "The Victory of Jewry over Germandom?" 131.252.181.168 22:46, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Please read the article. You got the title wrong. ←Humus sapiens ну? 22:58, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
 * "The Way to Victory..." was a followup published the same year as "The Victory of Jewry..." 131.252.181.55 20:17, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

Significant Omission
I'd say the fact that Marr, as the so-called 'patriarch' of the anti-Semitic German movment of the late 19th century later *renounced* many of his earlier writings is particularly significant.

Something akin to 'the anti-Semites were worse than the Jews'?

See Lindemann, 'The Jew Accused', 1991 - Nylarathotep


 * If you can find an actual source/cite for this, feel free to put it in the article; I know I'd love to see it. 96.231.128.111 (talk) 21:07, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

Unsatisfactory Translation
"The Way to Victory of Germanicism over Judaism" sounds bizarre in English. Germanicism doesn't exist and, given Marr's specifically non-religious point of view, Judaism is misleading. How about "The Road to the Victory of the Germans over Jewry"? Norvo (talk) 00:13, 26 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Correct it should be Germanism. Also see the only English translation I can find: http://www.kevinmacdonald.net/Marr-Text-English.pdf

 * Kevin MacDonald does not meet WP:NPOV about anti-Semitism.--FeralOink (talk) 17:09, 12 February 2024 (UTC)

Did Marr coin the term "antisemitism"?
This article currently says Marr only "popularized" the term, I thought I've seen it listed as him coining the term itself.Vikingsfan8 (talk) 08:42, 5 September 2013 (UTC)

Yellow badge of shame
I've removed the antisemitism category template from Wilhelm Marr. It is not appropriate to tag individuals - even dead ones - with a Badge of shame.

Marr's "antisemitic" attitudes (later repudiated) and his importance in the history of antisemitism are clear from the lede and the article.

Antisemitism consists of philosophies, beliefs, policies and behaviours - not individuals. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Galerita (talk • contribs) 08:47, 9 November 2015 (UTC)
 * The tag most certainly needs to be added. By your reasoning, Hitler wouldn't warrant the Antisemitism banner either.--FeralOink (talk) 17:08, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
