Problematic content[edit]

The content is heavily POV and is also unsourced from 2013. It's also heavily POV: please see: "Alternate geography; "stem the tide"; ahistorical terms; "much-needed recuperation"; etc. I plan to heavily redact it in the next couple of days, and then comment out the rest, if unsourced, per WP:V. Please let me know if there are any concerns. K.e.coffman (talk) 06:31, 9 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Since there was no response, I will go ahead. BTW, the references section lists James S. Lucas – one of the popular historians "partially or wholly seduced by the [Waffen-SS] mystique"^[1]

Article title[edit]

The title of this article should defenitly be changed from 2nd Parachute Division (Germany) to 2nd Parachute Division (Nazi Germany). The term Germany usualy describes the Federal Republic of Germany wich is a completely different country than the third Reich. Also it could make people think that todays Germany has a 2. Fallschirmjäger Division wich is not the case. The Incredible Blobfisch (talk) 21:30, 14 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
