Pińsk Ghetto

(

)

... that the mass shooting in the Pińsk Ghetto was the second largest anti-Jewish operation in a single settlement (map pictured) to that particular date after Babi Yar during the Holocaust?

It's a nice new article. Maybe I'm missing something, but I couldn't find any mention of Pinsk in reference 6 (Lower 2007), which is supposed to support the hook. Also, I find the hook a bit confusing. If the Pinsk and Babi Yar shootings are only surpassed by Lublin, why not just say the Pinsk shooting was the third largest during the Holocaust? -Zanhe (talk) 06:10, 13 May 2014 (UTC)

Done. Sorry for taking so long, User:Zanhe. I was not aware of your comment for a week, because I missed it somehow on my Watchlist when you left it here without a ping (I have almost 3,000 pages on it). I learned about your question only thanks to a note from User:Hamiltonstone for which I am forever grateful. All your points have been addressed. I have added a new section called Footnotes and explained my sources for the hook in detail. All best, Poeticbent talk 04:25, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
