Under the heading "Definition," the article says that there were six death camps - Auschwitz, Chełmno, Bełżec, Majdanek, Sobibor and Treblinka. But the map in the same section also lists Maly Trostenets as a death camp, and the article for Maly Trostenets states likewise. 184.100.75.8 (talk) 02:39, 11 June 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

"Millions were also murdered in concentration camps, in the Aktion T4 or murdered directly on side..." Surely this should be "...on site"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 45.93.75.130 (talk) 14:42, 19 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thanks I fixed it. DolyaIskrina (talk) 03:02, 22 August 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I have made edits to the "Gassing" section where the Sonderkommando's deceptive behavior towards the Jews who were about to be gassed is told by Hoss. We then allow Hoss to talk about how conflicted Nazi officers were upon seeing his work. I hope it's obvious what kind of biases he has and that he is not a reliable source on these matters and we don't need to let him brag on the pages of our encyclopedia. Of the thousands of enslaved Sonderkommandos fewer than 20 survived. So whatever voice they have should be carefully preserved and not replaced with their murderers' voice. It's likely that some version of what Hoff is describing is true, but we need better sources if we want to paint the shower ruse deception in such fine detail. Cheers.

The third paragraph in the "Extermination procedure" section has a sentence missing a comma. It should read, "At Auschwitz, clothes . . ."
