Copyrighted material

[edit]

See http://www.eraren.org/index.php?Lisan=en&Page=YayinIcerik&IcerikNo=208 The text is simply copy-pasted from the source. --Երևանցի talk 15:36, 15 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Plus, its a review by Heath W. Lowry, who has been criticized for his views on the Armenian Genocide. --Երևանցի talk 15:43, 15 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It's also found here...[1]. Proudbolsahye (talk) 18:10, 15 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It is not at all copyrighted material. It is a document from the US Archives, quoted in Heath Lowry's book, with a reference. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.233.175.210 (talk) 20:32, 25 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The references to Hartley Grattam and Horace C. Peterson are totally absent in Lowry's book. You are just removing without arguments what is annoying for you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.233.175.210 (talk) 20:35, 25 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

How many times do I need to repeat? Harry Elmer Barnes is not a reliable author, because he is a Holocaust denier. Guenter Lewy is known for his controversial views on the Armenian genocide. Heath W. Lowry has also been active in Armenian Genocide denial. Who is George Abel Screiner? Plus his long quote (which is unacceptable) is straight up copy-pasted from the source I already gave above. --Երևանցի talk 20:48, 25 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Reviews

[edit]

This part of the article is rather unsatisfying and seems biased to me. I'm no expert on the subject of Morgenthau's book, but I can hardly imagine there are no other (contemporaneous) reviews on his work. Also, the reviews cited here seem to be extremely one-sided and coming from non-neutral sources. I suggest either reworking this part of the article so it contains more points of view, deleting it, or changing the heading to "criticism". Joris Peters (talk) 22:59, 25 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Unclear text

[edit]

These sentences, found in the text, are incomplete and/or unclear:

Germany's plans for new territories, coaling stations, and indemnities and closing the Dardanelles and so separates Russia from her Allies. Ottoman Empire's abrogation of the capitulations.

These seem to be merely headlines from some other text.Fconaway (talk) 00:48, 12 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The reason is the article has been vandalized by revisionists who "reviewed" the book, and who support the denial of the Holocaust. I have fixed this section and deleted the revisionist sources too. --92slim (talk) 00:55, 19 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
