Several issues here

[edit]

First, there's massively undue weight given to the death of a minor figure. Second, the source for the memorial also appears to be fully or partially user generated, as per the info page I suggest that if you are interested in improving this article, using reliable sources to expand the details of military operations.

First, the source webpage for the memorial, indeed, is user generated, but all the relevant and for this article used info is supported by attached photodocumentation. Second, by this edit, justified by "unreliable source" you deleted not only the info about memorial but also the info about P-B's last actions, which is sourced by article in respected historical magazine. I agree that expanding the details of military operations will improve this article but deleting the already written and sourced sections will not, definitely. --Honzula (talk) 19:10, 20 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Since I don't have time to double check, I'll take your word on the Czech source. If you want to restore the information, I won't stop you, but details on the deaths of much more significant German military figures have been redacted on the grounds that it's irrelevant and excessive. Information on what's on a gravestone is not a common feature in biographies and if it hasn't been mentioned in a secondary source, is probably intricate detail under WP:NOT, even if we accept that source as reliable.
