On 8 April 2014, it was proposed that this article be moved from Belsen Trial to Belsen trial. The result of the discussion was moved.

Previous discussions without headers[edit]

The Belsen Trial did not institute the charges of "Crimes Against Humanity". These were first introduced in the subsequent Nuremburg trials. Check your sources, or consult the online version of Raymond Phillip's "The Belsen Trial", which gives a close account of the proceedings: http://www.ess.uwe.ac.uk/WCC/belsen1.htm

This is my first ever excusion into Wikipedia. I added the facts of the "second Belsen Trial" because my family and I were there and my father, Karl Hess was a witness for the prosecution at that trial. I have the complete transcript from which the information is taken.

Some explanations[edit]

Some notes on my edit: I replaced the original links to the University of the West of England cause they were dead. Rather than going through wayback machine, I found the same content on a different site. This is now used as the source for the trial transcript.

Moreover, I made some use of the German WP article de:Bergen-Belsen-Prozess...in particular for the spelling of the defendants' names - which the British authorities got wrong quite often. Where there are contradictions I gave preference to the spelling in the German article or to a panel in the exhibition at the Belsen-Memorial that lists the names and sentences for all the defendants. If necessary, I can post a picture of the list of SS personnel and related info. Some of the new content is also from the German WP article - I kept the references, but sometimes there was just one citation per paragraph and in these cases I assumed that all the content is from that source. Not sure what the official rule about umlauts (ä,ö,ü) is...

Further work: The German article has a gallery with mug shots of some of the defendants. Should we have that here, too? Also, they list the rank or function of all the defendants, but there is no source given for this. Might be in the transcript somewhere... Finally, the German WP has more pages on the defendants than the English one does. Should we link to German pages where no English ones exist? Drow69 (talk) 18:28, 29 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
