Peacock term

Your last edit of the Soviet war crimes article demonstrates that you are not satisfied with wording. I took these words directly form the source ( William Korey. The Origins and Development of Soviet Anti-Semitism: An Analysis. Slavic Review, Vol. 31, No. 1 (Mar., 1972), pp. 111-135), it is the article in the academic journal. If these words are acceptable there, I believe they are equally good for WP. However, if you disagree, feel free to reword. Otherwise, I'll remove the tag in close future.

Divisional symbols

Can you read Estonian? Then please read this repeated by this. What are your sources for the officiality of the 'EI' insignia? --Jaan Pärn (talk) 21:26, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

Sure, but I don't know how reliable these websites are, the two seem to repeat the same thing, but don't provide any references to support their claims. I recall reading other sources that state that is was used informally. --Martintg (talk) 21:26, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

Well, seems that none of us has the sources to verify our claims. Until we get our hands on some sources, why don't we leave the more commonly used insignia which will be better recognised by anyone who knows anything about the symbolics of the division. --Jaan Pärn (talk) 21:42, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

Given that we do have one source that is considered reasonably reliable, www.axishistory.com, indicating that this is the official unit symbol, we should retain the original, until we can verify otherwise. --Martintg (talk) 21:46, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

ok, I'll deal with it tomorrow. --Jaan Pärn (talk) 21:53, 16 September 2009 (UTC)

DYK for Nazi-Soviet military parade in Brześć

On September 17, 2009, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Nazi-Soviet military parade in Brześć, which you created or substantially expanded. You are welcome to check how many hits your article got while on the front page (here's how) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Arbitration case regarding the Eastern European mailing list

The Arbitration Committee recently passed a motion to open a case to investigate allegations surrounding a private Eastern European mailing list. The contents of the motion can be viewed here.

You have been named as one of the parties to this case at the request of the Arbitration Committee, here. Please take note of the explanations given in italics at the top of that section; if you have any further questions about the list of parties, please feel free to contact me on my talk page.

The Committee has explicitly requested that evidence be presented within one week of the case opening; ie. by September 25. Evidence can be presented on the evidence subpage of the case; please ensure that you follow the Committee instructions regarding the responsible and appropriate submission of evidence, as set out in the motion linked previously, should you choose to present evidence.

Please further note that, due to the exceptional nature of this case (insofar as it centers on the alleged contents of a private mailing list), the Committee has decided that the normal workshop format will not be used. The notice near the top of the cases' workshop page provides a detailed explanation of how it will be used in this case.

For the Arbitration Committee,

Email forwarding

You have, I believe, expressed the view that forwarding of emails to third parties without the consent of the originator is Bad. Are you confident that you have not engaged in similar behaviour yourself? William M. Connolley (talk) 09:50, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
