Talk:Adolph D. E. Elmer

some doubtful elements

First of all, I mourn him and many other people tormented and even killed by my grandparents' generation. I created ja:アドルフ・ダニエル・エドワード・エルマー based on partial translation on purpose of letting my contemporaries know about him and why he had to die, before which, however, I noticed some doubtful elements contained in this article.

1. New Guinea?
   • Did he really collect any plant in New Guinea? I failed to find out verification.
2. Category:Bataan Death March prisoners?
   • The more significant issue. Please see this edit made at 02:01, 10 August 2014‎ by 98.246.106.125 (talk · contribs · WHOIS). This change is questionable in many senses, since van Steenis-Kruseman writes nothing about his family's attitude to the couple nor Bataan Death March nor where Emma went after WWII. Concerning to his/her addition the only fact we can read from van Steenis-Kruseman is that Emma was survived by her husband. As observed at Santo Tomas Internment Camp, most of the interned were civilian and I failed to find out any relationship between A. D. E. Elmer and Bataan Death March. Apparently false is that the couple chose to stay in the Philippines of their own will. See the quotation of the Arlington News, they even longed for returning to their homeland on the contrary! Fortunately, thanks to many people's revisions, some of the fishy elements had already been removed, but this categorization and another statements were still inappropriate. I replaced the category with Category:World War II civilian prisoners held by Japan which I think more proper.
3. Other elements added by 98.246.106.125
   • As mentioned above.

I wait for a month and then will remove the elements tagged with Citation needed unless someone provides verification. --Eryk Kij (talk) 11:42, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
