Talk:Yaroslav Hunka scandal

Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 24 December 2023
Irwin Cotler welcomed the findings of the Deschenes Commission when they were released in March 1987. His recent comments about the Galicia Division, which Mr Justice Deschenes clearly stated could not be indicted as a unit, while adding that "mere membership" in the Division was not sufficient to warrant proseuction (in the absence of any evidence of an individual's criminal wrongdoing) are therefore either forgetful or misleading. 2001:1970:4000:80:595C:B1CA:5C87:7929 (talk) 12:57, 24 December 2023 (UTC)

“War criminal”
This article throws around the phrases “war criminal,” “suspected war criminal,” and “alleged war criminal” about the subject. But the subject is not a war criminal, nor an accused, alleged, nor suspected war criminal. This is a violation of WP:BIO.

It also Includes a quotation falsely accusing the subject of being a war criminal, without providing the context that it is false and possibly defamatory. Another violation. —Michael Z. 06:58, 25 December 2023 (UTC)


 * What do you mean by "about the subject"? (Not a rhetorical question, please clarify.)—Alalch E. 12:46, 25 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you. Of course the person to whom WP:BLP does apply, not the main subject of this article. —Michael Z. 19:23, 25 December 2023 (UTC)
 * If you are an SS soldier,you are a war criminal! 2600:8801:FB13:6B00:289D:E4A3:2EDA:6CE (talk) 07:30, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
 * No one would volunteer for a group that deliberately mass murders Jewish and Polish people if they didn't hate those people. All SS were volunteers. These weren't ordinary people drafted into war. 203.145.94.239 (talk) 10:34, 11 May 2024 (UTC)

Identification
The lede currently says "Hunka's membership in the Waffen-SS was identified almost immediately by historian Ivan Katchanovski, and reported initially by The Forward. "

This is incorrect. The Forward article links to Ivan Katchanovski's Twitter thread, but this in turn links to the actual first identification, by Twitter user "NAFO is PEPE 2.0" @lingerence cagliost (talk) 20:19, 1 January 2024 (UTC)


 * You are right. I have modified the text. Mhorg (talk) 11:45, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
