Hello everyone. This can be an emotionally-charged topic, so just a moderator reminder to all potential respondents to comply with this subreddit's rules for answering. A few excerpts:
Answers in this subreddit are expected to be of a level that historians would provide: comprehensive and informative. As such, all answers will be assessed against the standards of Historiography and Historical Method. You should cite or quote sources where possible. ...
An in-depth answer gives context to the events being discussed so that someone who is unfamiliar with the area can understand. An in-depth answer is usually more than a sentence or two. Use a balanced mix of context and explanation and sources and quotations in your answer. ...
Ask yourself these questions:
- Do I have the expertise needed to answer this question?
- Have I done research on this question?
- Can I cite my sources?
- Can I answer follow-up questions?
If you answer "Yes" to all of these questions, then proceed. If you answer "No" to one or more of these questions, seriously reconsider what you're posting.
Also a reminder that anecdotes, opinion/moralising, and conjecture are not permitted. Thanks all!
