Otto Stadie

(

• ... that Otto Stadie, a male nurse who served at the Führer's headquarters with the Nazi euthanasia program, kept the register of stolen gold and diamonds at Treblinka?

Created by Poeticbent (talk). Nominated by Skr15081997 (talk) at 11:26, 19 August 2014 (UTC).

• It would appear from the article that he kept the register at Treblinka, so the hook is misleading. The article has other minor problems: it needs to be written in either British or American English not a mix ("program" "centre"); He remained at Treblinka ... with the rank of Master Sergeant.; of the two references used to support this claim, one does not mention him at all and the other says he was "sergeant major" (quotes in the original). I'm sure Master Sergeant wasn't a rank in the SS. Belle (talk) 12:11, 20 August 2014 (UTC)

 Done. Please note, i-link to Treblinka has been added to original hook (above). Thanks, Poeticbent talk 20:59, 27 August 2014 (UTC)

• Full review needed. BlueMoonset (talk) 21:32, 8 September 2014 (UTC)

• Rather than having two huge blocs of copy, I edited the article and added subheads so it would look like a bio. I didn't understand the purpose of the synopsis of the Treblinka killing operation, so I removed it. I also noted where a cite is needed. The article currently stands at 1451 characters; it could easily be expanded with more biographical information. The nomination is new enough. Foreign-language hook ref AGF and cited inline. No QPQ necessary for non-self-nomination. Yoninah (talk) 23:53, 13 September 2014 (UTC)

Thank you Yoninah. Great editing, Poeticbent talk 14:34, 14 September 2014 (UTC)

• Article has been suitably expanded and all citations are in place. Hook refs verified/AGF and cited inline. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 10:24, 14 September 2014 (UTC)
