Vasiura Hryhoriy

edit
  • ... that after the war Hryhoriy Vasiura, a Nazi-collaborator and executioner of Khatyn massacre, pretended a Red Army veteran and even instructed young Soviet pioneers in patriotism until being arrested in 1984? Source: ". Like many other collaborators, Vasiura passed himself off as a Soviet patriot who had fought the Germans as a connection officer at the front. As a veteran and supposed war hero, he even instructed young Soviet pioneers in patriotism." ([1])

  • You have five descriptions in one hook (Nazi-collaborator...executioner...pretend Red Army veteran...instructed young Soviet pioneers in patriotism...arrested). I suggest cutting it down to one or two so it will be hooky. Yoninah (talk) 20:42, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
  • I took a quick look at the article. Per Rule D2, many paragraphs have no citations at all. Citations need to be added before this goes ahead. Yoninah (talk) 20:45, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
  • Катала has not edited on Wikipedia since April 22, and has another DYK nomination that also has significant issues that haven't been addressed. Something will need to be done within a week to take care of the issues noted here, either by the nominator or someone else, at which point a full review would be requested; if nothing is done, then this will be marked for closure.
