Thank you. Very helpful. Christopher Rath (talk) 23:01, 5 July 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I dont think this is near obvious or major enough to warrant a tag in the article, and Im certainly not an experienced enough editor to make a full claim of bias here, but while reading the section on the prosecutions and defences I couldnt help but feel like their structure and wording lightly (that is to say, quite subtly) favors the defence and guides the reader towards believing the defence was treated unfairly. I was hoping a more experienced editor could take a look and give their thoughts. Googleguy007 (talk) 12:56, 17 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Googleguy007 specifically what in the article is leading you to this conclusion? (t · c) buidhe 13:08, 17 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

The article states that Hartley Shawcross gave an opening speech on the 12th of December: "The British prosecution covered the charge of crimes against peace, [...] On 12 December, Shawcross gave the opening speech..." in the 'American and British Prosecution' section of 'Course of the trial'. However, the Avalon Project's transcript of the trials (linked in the article itself) lists Shawcross's speech as having taken place on the 4th of December instead (https://avalon.law.yale.edu/subject_menus/imtproc_v3menu.asp). At least one other source found online supports this date (the webpage of Rober H. Jackson Center - https://www.roberthjackson.org/nuremberg-event/british-opening-statement-2/). As the other dates in the article appear to line up with Avalon Project, this may be a mistake caused by the fact that 4th of December was the twelfth day of the trials.
