*I think this is valid criticism. But as framed, these are all exclusively content issues, not behavior issues by any specified users that could be addressed by administrators. Some of the cited statements from the WP pages are actually correct statements; they just need to be sourced better - yes, sure. Others must be rephrased or possibly removed. This is just a typical content work. I think this subject area is actually covered much better than many other subject areas in WP. Yes, in some cases there is simply not enough info on the page. Yes, sure, but no one ever objected to include more such info, for example about Nazi vans. Yes, a lot more info can be included to a lot of pages, and everyone is welcome to do just that. Every version of every page is wrong version. This is all. ] (]) 01:22, 2 January 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for your time

Ealdgyth I want to thank you for the time you've spent in compiling this. I plan in the next few days to go through it fully so you can rest assured at least one arb will read and think about it and I suspect I won't be the only one. I wanted to acknowledge that because there is likely to be some further motions made at the case request and I don't want you to think that this was in vain. I will be considering what you write here before making any "final" votes in this situation. Barkeep49 (talk) 22:32, 1 January 2022 (UTC)

I echo Barkeep49's message in full. KevinL (aka L235 · t · c) 22:36, 1 January 2022 (UTC)

I also want to thank you Ealdgyth. Do you mind if I comment on some of these points here? For example, it seems that the part about "majority" among Righteous Among Nations, was not sourced to Paulsson, it was simply unsourced. Looks like someone wrote it as a "lead in" sentence for that section. And yes, it was incorrect - people often confuse "majority" with "plurality". I've corrected it.
