Page moves
editThe page has just been moved for the third time in 5 months. This is clearly too many moves in such a short time. I would ask that no further moves are made without a requested move discussion. Thank you, DuncanHill (talk) 00:51, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
American approach
editThis section says that the Charter of the League of Nations conflicted with the US Constitution. However it does not say which articles conflicted. Neither does the article on the League of Nations. Can somebody add in where the conflict was? I don't have the source. Spinney Hill (talk) 10:33, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
Japanese approach
editCan anybody help us with what this quote means?
"The Japanese delegation became unhappy after it had received only half of the rights of Germany, "
What rights? Certainly not the rights to address the conference.
Palestine
editI'm not sure what the following means. Can anyone enlighten us? "A Jewish Council representative for the development of the Jewish National Home in Palestine, and offer to the council in priority any concession for public works or for the development of natural resources The self-government for localities"
This was badly edited and demonstrates the vexation attendant on the current disdain for punctuation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.51.81.8 (talk) 22:03, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
New States in Europe?
editI am missing a section on the political geography of Europe, the border adjustments, and the creation of Finland, the Baltic states, Poland, Yugoslavia, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, and Austria. This seems just as important as the mandates, which have their own section. I would appreciate if someone took the time to add this. --95.89.78.72 (talk) 05:06, 8 May 2023 (UTC)
Unsourced Judgements
editThis article contains a number of statements which, in my opinion, represent judgements on behalf of the editor which are inappropriate or require sources. For example:
"That provision proved very humiliating for German leaders, armies and citizens alike, and set the stage for the expensive reparations that Germany was intended to pay."
Whether or not it was "very humiliating" for each of those groups should at be supported by a reference.How "expensive" the reparations were should be quantified, or at least cited. To my knowledge there is reasonable difference among historians as to how onerous the reparations were, for example, and it seems misleading to state that they were "expensive" without some supporting numbers or references. 31.4.179.67 (talk) 12:42, 6 December 2023 (UTC)
