Dutch East Indies

The numbers for population and deaths is incorrect. The reference refers to Ethiopia. These are small islands in the Caribbean. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jclarke650 (talkcontribs) 23:56, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

Dutch East Indies became Indonesia in 1947--Woogie10w (talk) 00:28, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

No, the West Indies are small islands in the Caribbean. The Dutch East Indies are what became Indonesia. And the reference refers to the Dutch East Indies, and says nothing about Ethiopia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tyrannophobe (talkcontribs) 18:52, 22 October 2010 (UTC)




UMMMMMM Why no mention of Gypsy casualties? Guess the Gypsies can just xxx off right?


Please Read World War II casualties#Notes--Woogie10w (talk) 20:36, 3 November 2010 (UTC)




Very minor, but footnote 39 mentions "37,0000 Dutch POW". This is of course one zero too many and should be "37,000 Dutch POW". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 131.174.17.77 (talk) 14:56, 3 January 2011 (UTC)

Yugoslav Axis/Allied casualties

Allied Military personnel killed, percentage by country.
Axis Military personnel killed, percentage by country.

Cocerning these figures, I posted this about two years ago but it still hasn't changed:

Yugoslav allied military deaths are listed at 3%. This is what the source said: 'Military losses of 237,000 Yugoslav partisans and 209,000 Ustaše'. Judging from 3% being higher than the 2% of the United States, the deaths of the Ustase are included on the allied side, but they were in fact Axis forces.

Yugoslavia can also be added on the Axis Death diagram (The Ustase and some of the Chetniks), the axis casualties for Yugoslavia are listed here: Yugoslav Front (World War II), but I don't know how accurate they are. The death of Chetniks can also be added to the overal military casualties of Yugoslavia on this page, which currently only has Yugoslav Partisans and Ustase casualties.

Diagrams still haven't changed since. If someone is capable of doing so please do. Otherwise maybe its better to remove them? They just seem too inaccurate. Grey Fox (talk) 01:24, 8 January 2011 (UTC)
