Note 31: reference to wrong translation
editNote 31 contains a link to the English translation of the protocol (https://web.archive.org/web/20200112224846/https://www.ghwk.de/fileadmin/user_upload/pdf-wannsee/texte/protocol.pdf). There is at least one error in this translation, see p.11:
"Each individual case must be re-examined, and it is not excluded that the new decision will again be in favor of the Mischlinge").
The orginal reads
"Jeder Einzelfall muss überprüft werden, wobei nicht ausgeschlossen wird, daß die Entscheidung nochmals zu Ungunsten des Mischlings ausfällt".
"Zu ungunsten" is the opposite of "in favor".

Blatantly misleading first paragraph

The final solution was a resettlement / workcamp project, and was not written nor distributed by Hitler. If there are other pieces of information on this changing, it should be produced here. I really do hope people just stick with the USHMM context here at least in the literal name and phrase it is taken from. USHMM User (talk) 05:16, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
