A fact from Katyn Commission appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 4 December 2013 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that the findings of the Katyn Commission concerning the Soviet massacre of 22,000 Polish prisoners of war were denied for seventy years?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2013/December. The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Katyn Commission.

Orphaned references in Katyn Commission

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Katyn Commission's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "kmw_note":

From Katyn massacre: "Soviet Note of 25 April 1943, severing unilaterally Soviet-Polish diplomatic relations, English translation of the Russian document". Electronic museum. Archived from the original on 16 June 2008. Retrieved 4 August 2011.
From Władysław Sikorski: Soviet Note of April 25, 1943, severing unilaterally Soviet-Polish diplomatic relations [1], last accessed on December 19, 2005, English translation of Polish document

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 18:54, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"External Link" section: removal?

Since it's gone back and forth in the edit history a few times, I thought it best to make a talk section before simply deleting the "External Link" section. That said, can anyone tell the relevance of those links? I was only able to access the archived one, but it seemed to bear no relation to the actual topic of the article beyond a brief mention of the coincidence in the dates of the Katyn Massacre and Stalin's death. If the link is even to an appropriate source, it seems that it would more properly be linked from an article about Stalin or his death. TheLetterThorn (talk) 00:07, 1 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Since it's been over a week with no comments, I went ahead and removed the links. I'm still open to discussion here if anyone has a compelling reason to re-add them. TheLetterThorn (talk) 00:26, 12 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Good call. That link led to a conspiracy theory created by a very banned long-term pest; indeed it was him who was adding those links. He has been banned from all Wikimedia projects by the WMF, and all edits made by him should be reverted. Java Hurricane 16:01, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
