      The title made me think it was someone trying to excuse Nazis, but no she's going and removing glorification of Nazis.

      This one is fun:

      Coffman goes through hundreds of articles about the winners of various Nazi medals, including one called the Knight’s Cross of the Iron Cross. She removes biased sources and any information based on those sources. When she is done, typically, there is nothing left to the article—nothing to say about the person—other than the fact that he won an award. She then insists that an award isn’t reason enough for a stand-alone Wikipedia article. Without a reliable source telling your life story, you can’t be notable. Poof. Another Nazi legend bites the dust.

      Another Nazi "legend" bites the dust. barbara-pit

      He went on: “Will we apply the same censorship to military history articles on units of the Khmer Rouge? Turkish military units involved in the Armenian Genocide? Rwandan military units involved in the genocide in that country? US cavalry units that massacred Native Americans? Arkan’s Tigers? Where does that end?”

      Anyone who names them self peacemaker is guaranteed to be a dickhead

    This is funny but I think it breaks the site's "no nazi/fascist imagery (even ironic)" emoji rule

    I feel like we can add a lot more nazi symbols. Possibly enough to cover the visible parts of the globe. We can add the SS sig runes, the 14th Waffen SS shield, the Swastika, the Reich Eagle, the operator skull, 1st Waffen SS shield.

    The nazi numbers would probably be best as being barely visible on the outside since they're the least distinctive. We've got 14 (14 words), 88 (Heil Hitler), 28 (Blood and Honor) and probably more that I'm forgetting.

      We can also include symbols of other fascist states that it does apologia for, plus get the fasces in there

      The trident used by Banderites and the modern Ukrainian military is a topical one

        Make sure you're using the trident with the sword or the runic trident. The normal trident (tryzub) is just the state symbol of Ukraine.

    nazis meanwhile think it's "woke-ipedia" despite consistently being edited by state department reactionaries on several key topics
