Kalmykia and WWII

I have put in the source for the material and deleted the lack of sources box. However I am not sure what the POV issue is. No doubt this section of the article could be inmproved. As Nathan would not be writing about himself, any contribution he could make would be greatly appreciated. Nathans comments seem disjointed "they were treated as outlaws by both Hitler and Tito" - does this relate to their role fighting the partisans towards the end of the War. "it does not recognize other factors in the conflict" - well what were these factors. It seems from Bezin's article that there were some Kalmyks who played a prominent part in collaborating with the Nazis, while for the bulk of the population the whole period was a further episode in suffering caught between two callous world powers fighting each other. Also the article talks about the arrival of the German Army and them being regarded as liberators at that point in time - even if they were subsequently treated badly by the German war machine (and in this context can be seen organsations like the Tiger Legion etc.)Harrypotter 22:23, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:SilverSpring-tastee.gif

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:SilverSpring-tastee.gif. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media 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. NW (Talk) 01:39, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
