Book and film

[edit]

I've replaced the original book infobox information removed without explanation by an editor with a score of Wiki edits, half of which were about this subject.[1]

No explanation was given, but possibly COI was involved. The book is an extensive scholarly reference. The movie is a popularization that spends considerable time explaining who the Nazi's were, dwelling on their pictures, and interviewing a particular person at length who has an ownership dispute with Austrian museums. The movie possibly suggests WP:BIAS.

I'm unclear whether both infoboxes are appropriate, if not, then the original, scholarly, award-winning book should be retained, not the money-losing non-award-winning film.

I've also replaced mention of the author winning the Légion D'Honneur -- surely significant to the article. A given a reference. It's unclear, KrakatoaKatie, why you claimed someone else won the award.[2]

I've added a book cover scan. Regards, Alpha Ralpha Boulevard (talk) 04:00, 13 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
