[edit] Re:Katyn censorship
Simply put, there is no need for a seperate section on 'Katyn denial' - it is discussed throughout the article. You are welcome to add information to it, particularly the last section which already mentions various attempts of denial, but adding a new section just with that example is not improving the overall style of the article. Also, you may want to be careful with accusing others of 'censorship' and 'bad faith', per WP:NPA and WP:AGF.-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk 00:00, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
Dear Piotrus, thank you for your message.

As I said to you, I am not going to go into deletion
wars with you, so your threats lack a point.

>'Katyn denial' - it is discussed throughout the article.
It's "separate". And you did not remove the section,
you removed everything. Quote, unquote:
Russian dissident
writer Yu.I. Mukhin (an editor of a radical
newspaper Duel) wrote a book "Katyn Detective"
("Катынский детектив") purporting to show that all
documents of Katyn massacre are in fact forgeries.
This theory is refuted on the site КАТЫНЬ.
This is what you deleted. If that's not censorship,
I don't know what is.
Anyway, they do have the "Holocaust denial" section
in Holocaust. Your attempt to expunge the mention of
dissent in Katyn pages looks like someone would go and
remove all mention of Holocaust denial from Holocaust
pages. It makes your point a way less credible.
Best regards
