[edit] POV?
Look, the book is most known now for those monstrousities. I've seen no info on other details.--TheFEARgod (Ч) 21:10, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
- Has this been published yet? I can't see it on Amazon... // Chris (complaints)•(contribs) 21:58, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
there is no English translation. Just the Italian original. --dab (𒁳) 14:12, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] subtitle
The literal translation of the subtitle is "me and the war criminals". Perhaps move? dab (𒁳) 14:32, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
- the proper English translation would be "I and the war criminals", but I get almost no google hits for that. We'll move it to the title chosen by the translator as soon as an English translation appears anyway. dab (𒁳) 16:11, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Fringe Theories
I'm unsure whether this article makes clear the level of acceptance these allegations have received - e.g. none whatsoever. I'll be editing it to reflect WP:Fringe. Ossicle (talk) 03:56, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
Also, just as a reminder: non-English sources are acceptable but "Where editors use a non-English source to support material that others might challenge, or translate any direct quote, they need to quote the relevant portion of the original text in a footnote or in the article, so readers can check that it agrees with the article content. Translations published by reliable sources are preferred over translations made by Wikipedia editors." WP:RSUE So, please, pull out the exact sentences you're referring to and put them in a footnote. Otherwise, it probably shouldn't be there. Ossicle (talk) 04:33, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Contradiction
| “ | The International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia had said of Del Ponte's allegations: "The Tribunal is aware of very serious allegations of human organ trafficking raised by the former Prosecutor, Carla Del Ponte, in a book recently published in Italian under her name. No evidence in support of such allegations was ever brought before the Tribunal’s judges."[5]
A spokeswoman for the UN War Crimes Tribunal says: "No substantial evidence that former Kosovo Albanian fighters slaughtered Serbs and sold their organs has been found."[6] |

What is UN War Crimes Tribunal? Wikipedia link points to the ICTY so there appears to be some contradiction here. Could someone clarify it? Alæxis¿question? 06:40, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Notability
Could you explain this? The organs trafficking allegations caused a considerable controversy and are therefore notable. A great number of publications in various newspapers and other media prove this. Please add other important info about the book to the intro rather than deleting anything. Alæxis¿question? 07:09, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- Did not delete anything, just moved it down. We have only read about the organ harvesting which at best is a untrue rumour. No do not need to include this in the intro since the book is about many other issues. Due to the language the book is published in (Italian) we have not read so much about the other things but in few months a English translation will be avilable and then we will be able to read about the other issues. Remember WP:Weight --Noah30 (talk) 07:17, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
- As far as I could understand book's description it's about the war crimes committed by all sides (and also about Rwandan genocide). So I think we should write in the intro something along the lines of that description and mention that the claim about organs trafficking caused major controversy. This would be fully in line with WP:NPOV and WP:UNDUE. Alæxis¿question? 07:53, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
