Talk:Nazi

Funny how this article starts by emphasizing the distinction between Nazis and the Wehrmacht, but then it goes on to describe everything about the Wehrmacht and nothing about the Nazi party.

No Slavaboos Allowed

If you have received most of your WWII knowledge from world of tanks or the history channel, please dont edit this page. thank you --Kapow (talk) 06:23, 14 November 2014 (UTC)

Fuck you and fuck your "commanding". (User: Slavaboo)

which photo of the fw190 do people like better? one has the awesome jv44 colors but the other one is a better profile and makes it look more aggressive. --Kapow (talk) 03:47, 18 November 2014 (UTC)

removing wehrmork

yeah, this entire section is complete trash and is pretty much written by someone who has no idea what they are talking about.

• green gorilla wwi poster = orks? therefore nazis?

• the IG steel legion uses stalhelms and the big shoota model is not a stalhelm at all

• the ork planes are very obviously modelled on the mig15, not german planes

• assault guns were used by everyone, not just germans.

• half tracks were used by everyone

• everyone stole tanks guns and gear from everyone.

• blitzkrieg is about using tanks as enveloping cavalry, not moving fast in a frontal assault

• stick nades were used by many sides.

It's Korean War aircraft, not only Mig-15, look at the North American F-86 and Republic F-84

So, about the vast majority of this page...

• It's, uh, it's just an exhaustive list of every piece of materiel the German army used in WWII. I don't mean to go all Forgefather up in here, but... could we cut the vast majority of that? It adds little to the wiki and is off-topic in the extreme. --SpectralTime (talk) 13:39, 10 February 2016 (UTC)
  • Agreed. I think we should keep some of the more well known stuff and the wunderwaffen, because that can be used to reference for nazi-esque factions in fanmade settings and campaigns. TheWiseDane (talk) 13:45, 10 February 2016 (UTC)
    • It seems to have actively gotten even worse since the last post here. I am strongly considering the possibility of simply deleting it all and starting from scratch- assuming it's even worth keeping at this point. --Newerfag (talk) 02:27, 8 September 2016 (UTC)

Recent Edit

So I went through and made a few edits.

I got rid of most of the tu quoque "both sides were bad!" stuff. There were multiple places where the article derailed into discussing whether the allies were saints or not and bringing up the nukes. The Allies absolutely were not saints, but this article is about the Nazis, not the Soviets, so it should be able to talk about the Holocaust and such without having to go "BUT STALIN!" If you want to talk about how awful the Americans, British Empire, and Soviets were then maybe do so on their pages.

I also got rid of some wehrby tech-wank. In particular this line:

The Germans were known to have some of the best armored tanks in the war, their small arms far outstripped the guns Europe had at the time, and were pioneers to many advanced technologies during their time that have become well known today, like jet engines, cruise missile systems, fully automatic rifles(even with battery-run night scopes around '44), stealth craft, and many others.

None of this is true. German tanks were seen as pretty bad for the first 2/3rds of the war - many of the big tanks they made were a result of a 1941 "tank panic" when they discovered their panzers were getting rekt by T-34s and KV-1s, and most of those big tanks were still not that great. Their main small arm, the 98k, carried half the ammo as a British Lee Enfield and was stepped all over by the Garand (which was American, of course, but in the latter part of the war that's what they were fighting). The British and Americans had their own contemporary jets (which they didn't bother fielding because they weren't desperate to turn the war around). The STG-44 and ICBMs are a biiit closer to what you're talking about, but this is still more just them cobbling together expensive and mostly useless shit to try and turn things around than it is superior German engineering.

Otherwise I left it mostly intact. TheRedSnifit (talk) 09"43, 15 October 2018 (EST)

Ok so here's the schtick with this article

Short story, absolute mess of writing off into a billion directions, adding unrelated, boring, and frankly not /tg/ things into the whole thing, and for some ungodly reason going off into a rant about today's politics. I don't know why, I blame the current times.

In any case I tried my best to proofread, shorten, retract, kind of make funny, and streamline the whole fucking thing. I just woke up. I don't want to be doing this, but I like /tg/ and I feel they deserve something nice once in a fucking while. If there are any glaring issues with formatting please feel free to fix, but so help me god if shit is reverted because "muh politics" I'm going to drop my dick into a bowl of toaster water. 2604:6000:1414:32D:298B:951C:1EEB:37A7 12:47, 26 July 2019 (UTC)

Why toaster water specifically?

In any case I doubt you'd get much objection, we've only had the cleanup template on it for fucking ever. The worst you could be said to have done is overpruned, and even then you didn't quite toss anything that isn't SUPER essential. I'm gonna go back over and consider what else could be added now that the focus's tightened. --LGX-000 (talk) 17:59, 26 July 2019 (UTC)

You can make toaster water by mixing a big bucket of water with a toaster. You get the idea.

But yea, I didn't want to prune the stuff that was relevant to the topic, because it's relevant (ya know, technology and stuff) but my god whoever was going through that before was clearly invested in derailing the entire thing. 2604:6000:1414:2030:1804:5440:1672:AA0F 18:30, 27 July 2019 (UTC)

Granted. At the least it's a much better base to work with for the moment. --LGX-000 (talk) 21:25, 27 July 2019 (UTC)

Thule-Gesellschaft

Does anyone mind if I add a section on the Thule-Gesellschaft, the real-life occult society of which Hitler and some of the other high-ranking Nazis were at one point members. Considering that the (incredibly guilt-ridden) descendants of the Thule-Gesellschaft show up in Hunter: the Vigil as the Loyalists of Thule, it might be worth a section on them, but I will defer to everyone else on whether to add the section.

Keep it factual - the Thule society is weird enough anyway without any exaggeration. This is (theoretically at least) a resource for DMs and players and the Thules do make for good RPG bait, so I say do it. A brief description of the society and a list of some of the weird shit they searched for should be enough. Mindwarp (talk) 13:33, 16 October 2019 (UTC)

Ok, I should have the section up sometime today.

Signing your posts by using four tildes "~" is a good idea on talk pages too. Mindwarp (talk) 13:56, 16 October 2019 (UTC)

The Platform section

Some anon added a bloated 'Platform' section to the article, listing all points raised by the NSDAP. It was too much, and he put it above 'Overview', so I cleaned up a little. I'm still unsure whether that section truly belongs here, if others want to restore the version from before it, I won't complain. Alternatively, we could remake the overview and have 'Platform' as one of the points. --Taufag (talk) 06:52, 23 October 2019 (UTC)
