Oppose - it was a POW, not a concentration camp until 1942. --Lysytalk 21:14, 18 January 2006 (UTC)- Comment : It is foremostly as a concentration camp that Bergen-Belsen is remembered. This does not preclude its role as a POW camp being included in the article. David Kernow 23:34, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
- Support - for above reasons. LuiKhuntek 15:46, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
- Support : in case it is not assumed that I, as originator of the proposal, am in favor. (Direction to Wikipedia policy, please?) David Kernow 20:49, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
- Support. And I would suggest the Bergen-Belsen to be a disamb article directing to Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, Bergen-Belsen DP camp and Bergen-Belsen POW camp. --Lysytalk 21:00, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
- Seconded David Kernow 03:27, 20 January 2006 (UTC)
- Support. The name change is consistent with usage elsewhere ("Auschwitz concentration camp"). logologist|Talk 02:24, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for making the move, Nightstallion. As per Lysy's suggestion above, I've now converted the Bergen-Belsen redirect page into a disambiguation page. David Kernow 14:11, 21 January 2006 (UTC)
