Heinz Neumann as "leading communist"[edit]

Article says: "Following her divorce in 1929, she married again, to the leading German Communist Heinz Neumann." I think "A leading German Communist" is better. But I'll let scholars of between-the-wars German Communism decide the issue. Margarete Buber-Neumann did not survive war, nor got privileges because she had renounce communism. The sentence " Because she had renounced communism as a result of her experiences in the Soviet Union, she was treated as a relatively privileged prisoner. This enabled her to survive five years in the camp" is NOT supported by any reliable source. As a matter of fact it is a lie that was created by the communists at the time of the Kravchenko trial. Other inmates who were important resistant figures as Germaine Tillon & Anise Postel-Vinay or Geneviève Anthonioz De Gaulle (niece of the general) have all contradicted this calumny. She also risked her life to save the inmates who underwent SS medical experiment on the legs and were known as the rabbits. 81.64.5.216 (talk) 09:40, 1 May 2012 (UTC) Pierre Raiman[reply]

As far as M.B.-N. herself gave an explanation for her surviving of the internment in Ravensbrück, she said that it was due to her age of 40. Young women had higher risk to die there. But what is missing in the article is the role Olof Aschberg was playing in her life in the years early after 1945. ----130.83.12.163 (talk) 18:28, 24 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
See revised article as of May 2018, with clarification about Neumann's status. If dissatisfied, might want to re-use content (with citations) from Neumann's own entry.--Aboudaqn (talk) 17:36, 13 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Section about Babette Gross[edit]

What is the section about Babette Gross good for? It is an article about Margarete Buber-Neuman − not about her sister. ----130.83.117.163 (talk) 14:20, 18 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

See revised article as of May 2018, with news clarification about close relations between sisters.--Aboudaqn (talk) 17:36, 13 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
This is very old, but I wondered why the Personal life started with a lot of info about her sister. I put the info into a note.–CaroleHenson (talk) 18:47, 14 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Fotograph "Sakhalin"[edit]

What is the fotograph "Group of prisoners in Sakhalin, remote prison island (circa 1903)" good for? It has no relationship to Margarete Buber-Neumann.----130.83.197.103 (talk) 18:08, 6 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Reviewing this article[edit]

In reading the article I am struck by the number of citations in some places. Way too many. Unless the information is contested, or differs among sources, just one is needed.

There are "notes" in the body of the article - and references to books and page numbers that really should be in citations, so I am going to do some cleaning up of the article.–CaroleHenson (talk) 03:22, 14 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

dachaukz.blogspot.com[edit]

After I finished cleaning up the article, I ran https://copyvios.toolforge.org/ and found that there was a lot of duplicated info in this blog. Based upon the date (2012), I wonder if the blog copied content from the Wikipedia article (late 2012).–CaroleHenson (talk) 18:52, 14 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
