The fact that this list is so long... mid importance... and not even incomplete...

And just in Yugoslavia. Wikipedia is not a place for commentary, but let us hope that we never see anything like WWII again. 162.230.248.226 (talk) 04:33, 11 December 2021 (UTC)Reply

Bihor massacre in May? 1943 edit

Latest comment: 1 year ago2 comments2 people in discussion

I have reverted the addition, the appropriate thing to do is to discuss this here. Mother Teresa: The Saint and Her Nation published by Bloomsbury, mentions on page 12 the "Massacre of Bihor", a two-month rampage by Serbian and Montenegrin paramilitaries in which 9,200 Albanian civilians were killed, 82 villages were destroyed and 32,000 people displaced. This is apparently drawn from these sources. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 08:02, 20 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

I have looked at both links used as sources in the aforementioned book. The first link to the website (arbresh.info) is a dead link with the second link showing success. The second link is to a website named Kosova per Sanxhakun (Kosovo for Sandzak) which is an NGO operating out of Kosovo.[1] The article discusses the massacre in a very bizarre way. The article starts off by claiming that 9,200 Sandzaklians were killed by Chetniks. As the article progresses, the author claims that Albanians were killed by a combined force of Chetniks, Italian soldiers and Yugoslav Partisans. The article also claims that the Chetniks were cannibals (kanibalist) and published a photo. The photo is actually that of Chetniks killing a Partizan member in the Sumadija region of Serbia during WW2. The article uses sources from tabloid websites such as bosnjaci.net and sandzakpress.net. The article violates WP:RELIABILITY as it is hearsay, given the absence of any reliable sources and emotive language littered throughout. The fact that the article itself claims that Chetniks and Yugoslav Partisans worked together is an alarm bell in itself, given that they were mortal enemies. This source should not be added.
