Talk:Ernst Heinkel

After the War

Since no sources can point to any evidence of anti-Hitler activities, it should be said that Heinkel's involvement and position towards national socialism as well as his maneuvering during the trials need to be questioned. Please refer to the German version of this article for a clearer account. 89.58.189.62 (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 16:29, 26 September 2008 (UTC).

Fair use rationale for Image:Ernst Heinkel.jpg

Image:Ernst Heinkel.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:08, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

"model for slave labor"

What does this mean? Did the slaves say this, or the Nazis? This matters. The German language page (I am reading the Google translation) talks about "depictions and legends about himself that he had embellished" after the war. Who has a copy of the reference on Oscar Schindler? JHowardGibson (talk) 02:21, 21 January 2021 (UTC)

I found the reference. The phrase "model for slave labor" requires context. It has a different meaning if Jews say it, if Nazis say it, or if some efficiency expert says it. The reference is ambiguous, but definitely, Jews did not say it. Ernst Heinkel did send Jewish engineer Friedrich W. "Fred" David to Japan to get him away from the Nazis. Here is a nice article on David -- Australia’s First Homebuilt Fighter Holds the Line. I will re-write the paragraph, deleting the quote. Everything else looks good to mne.
