Disambiguation page[edit]

Created a disamiguation page, because the topic is much wider.--Lokyz (talk) 22:04, 13 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Article has been restored to its proper state with minor improvements. Further discussion would be welcomed, since the term is referred to by historians, such as Tadeusz Piotrowski, as quite specific: see reference provided. If anybody wants a disamiguation page than please created it from scratch. --Poeticbent talk 06:26, 14 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Flaws of logic[edit]

This section was intended to explain why Lithuanian partisans was moved into disambig, and why the Current name is flawed.--Lokyz (talk) 22:08, 11 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If you want discusssion here you go.

The term Lithuanian partisans is widely used in many occasions, and as a matter of fact in current state it is a fork of Holocaust in Nazi-occupied Lithuania. It does not mention any partisan armed actions against Red Army - as if the solely reason of the existance of the partisans was a participation in Holocaust. There are much better referenced articles on the topic - Algirdas Klimaitis for an instance.

The whole article is about killings by alleged "partisans", that were disbanbded as such in June 28th - so why the July killings section?. The allegation that 36 thousand deserters of the 29th Lithuanian Territorial Corps joined the Holocaust is an WP:OR in it's clearest form.

If one wants to write about Einsatzgruppen or police batalions - write about them, not about partisans. Piotrowski's "Poland's Holocaust" is not the only book on the subject. tagging for now.--Lokyz (talk) 08:17, 14 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Have to agree with both Renata and Lokyz, the term is generic and should really be a disambiguation page pointing to the relevant articles. We don't need yet another content/POV fork. Martintg (talk) 23:59, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
