German atrocities committed against Soviet prisoners of war
Overcrowded camp in Smolensk
- ... that Soviet prisoners of war were the second-largest group of victims of Nazi mass killing? Source: Kay 2021, p. 294.

Post-promotion hook changes will be logged on the talk page; consider watching the nomination until the hook appears on the Main Page.(t · c) buidhe 23:44, 24 April 2024 (UTC).
Nominated soon enough after GA. Meets length and citation requirements. Hook is absolutely interesting and the right length. The content of the hook is referenced in the article and a citation is appended immediately after where it appears. The image appears to come from a Nazi German government source, which means it's almost certainly in the public domain. Only concern is with the image's visibility at a smaller scale; going to just leave that up to promoter discretion. QPQ done (a quick-fail of novice nomination). Overall great work! ~ Pbritti (talk) 21:47, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
Launchballer : in the death toll section : "By this time, more Soviet prisoners of war had died than any other group targeted by the Nazis;[32][235][236] only the European Jews would surpass this figure." (t · c) buidhe 22:19, 13 May 2024 (UTC)
