In the subdivision of the section "Liberation" called "Killing of camp guards", I want where it says "American troops killed some of the camp guards after they surrendered" to be changed to "American troops summarily executed some of the camp guards after they surrendered". 95.151.194.20 (talk) 12:26, 25 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

On hold Please provide appropriate reasoning or sourcing for this change. Iseult^Δxparlez moi 16:20, 25 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Well if you go on the Wikipedia article, Dachau liberation reprisals, it says the attack type were summary executions. 95.151.194.20 (talk) 20:36, 26 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:WINRS. Iseult^Δxparlez moi 03:09, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

But I think the Dachau liberation reprisals fits the definition of summary executions. 95.151.194.20 (talk) 19:03, 14 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"At least 25,613 prisoners are believed to have been murdered in the camp and almost another 10,000 in its subcamps,[20] primarily from disease, malnutrition and suicide." Are you sure that they were murdered by suicide? 2401:7000:C227:201:9DF4:7BB3:E099:4942 (talk) 07:33, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
