I would like to call for the attention of the contributors who have considered the issue of this chart. I really would like to revert to a prior version that doesn't use flags. My position is quite simple: These flags are used to represent the victims of each nationality but, in some cases, these are actually the banners of their torturers and murderers. There is a special case, which is the Spanish one: until Dictatorship recognition by UN, that flag just represent one of the two governments who were recognized by the international community of that age. Indeed, I believe that it is outrageus to represent Spanish inmates of Gusen with the flag of the military dictatorship which they fighted against.
Besides correctness of national representation, there is a quite important question about the real people represented with this chart. Just imagine a German, Italian or Spanish prisoner consulting wikipedia, reading Gusen article and looking at himself represented by the symbol of their betrayers or torturers. The problem can be solved easily: just return to a neutral palette of colours (the palette of OpenOffice, for instance), and any moral problems would be avoided. If you contrast these moral problems with the benefits of render national flags of that moment in the chart, cost-benefit relationship is quite clear.
Dimlocator (talk) 11:10, 15 February 2009 (UTC) I am sure there was no malice intended, but is an unfortunate & very bitter irony to see the Spaniards represented by what seems like the Franquist flag, especially as most of the Spanish inmates had fought against Franco. The same applies to the Germans or Austrians having their country of origin represented by the flag of Hitler's Empire. Perhaps some clever person might wish to redo this chart without the flags. On a more general point, this is another case of how flags are more often than not misused (personally I loathe them) 11:10, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
