Discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history[edit]

HI, just a quick note about a current discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history (WWII content: Otto Kittel, other GA/FA articles) that editors of this page may be interested in. K.e.coffman (talk)

Unsourced comment about Bär's personality[edit]

This comment

"Hermann Göring's personal dislike of Bär, coupled with Bär's insubordinate character and lack of military discipline, deprived him of this award."

is unsourced but smells like Kurowski. He used a similar description of Kurt Knispel, which was later dispelled by those who knew him. Flanker235 (talk) 14:03, 18 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In the absence of any source for this comment, I'm proposing that it be removed. If someone can come up with a reference that fits with Wiki's WP:RS guidelines, it can and should stay. I'll give it two weeks from today. Flanker235 (talk) 12:40, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
