General

 * (1a) Why is "German Government" consistently written with the capital "[G]overnment"?

Background

 * (2c) Cite 8 (Schmitt 1960, p. 101) doesn't seem to support the sentence to which it is attached. =
 * (3a) Brezina 2006 discusses the political pressure that the Allied leaders faced at home from voters for harsh reperations. It would be a good idea to (shortly) mention these pressures as part of the background.

German Reaction

 * (6a) (1) The picture's source link does not work. (2) For a public domain claim based on the author having died more than 70 years ago, the name and date of death of the individual that took the picture must be identified. (3) The current claim (died 70+ years ago) is not valid in the United States, while all images on Wikimedia Commons must be in the public domain in both the U.S. and the country of origin. I assume the picture was created before Jan. 1, 1925, in which case that would be a proper public domain claim for the U.S. (but needs to be added).
 * (2c) Cite 27 (Albrecht-Carrié 1940, p. 15) does not support that it was the objective of "both the politicians and historians".

Initial demands

 * (2c) The second paragraph relies fully on primary sources right now; please add secondary sources as well.

London Schedule of Payments

 * (2b) Cite 46's page numbers are impossible as the source starts at page 231.
 * (1a) This section repeatedly quotes directly from secondary sources. I find it confusing as to why and who is being cited without looking at the sources itself and it may pose a copyright issue.

End of reparations for Austria, Bulgaria, Hungary, and Turkey

 * (1a) (again) This section repeatedly quotes directly from secondary sources. I find it confusing as to why and who is being cited without looking at the sources itself and it may pose a copyright issue.

Dawes Plan

 * (3a) "French troops were to withdraw from the Ruhr" - Why only the French troops?

Young Plan

 * (3a) "However, they considered the plan a temporary measure and expected a revised plan at a future date." - Why did they?
 * (3a) "5.8 million voters" - How many voted in total?

End of German reparations

 * (1a) "In effect, therefore, America paid reparations to Germany—four times more, in price-adjusted terms, than the U.S. furnished to West Germany under the post-1948 Marshall Plan." This sentence as a whole confuses me; why would the U.S. pay reparations to Germany?

Summary

 * (2b) Which source are the 2020 US$ amounts based on?

Hyperinflation

 * (1a) The article should shortly explain what gold Marks and paper Marks are (especially what the difference is).
 * (4) The article spends significantly more time elaborting on the view that the reparations did not cause the hyperinflation. Is this in line with the current consensus among economists?
