Contents Missing?

edit

To me, it seems that this page has only a fraction of the original jokes. Is this due to work load, or are the other jokes not deemed to be appropriate? 2A02:C7F:C67D:D100:BD40:CFEE:ACC4:E048 (talk) 20:43, 18 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

It is due to the fact that this is an encyclopedia, not a joke book. We add jokes as examples (one doesnt really need many examples to illustrate what king of jokes they were). Also, we add jokes which became notable for some reason.
Also, all text added to wikipedia articles must be supplied with references to reliable sources. As I see, you added a couple jokes. Please provide the references. Unreferenced text may be deleted at any time. Lembit Staan (talk) 17:50, 19 February 2021 (UTC)Reply


from reddit: Somehow this wiki entry doesn't include my favorite, for which the Priest Joseph Muller was executed for telling, and then refusing to reveal it's source.

A young Luftwaffe soldier was badly injured and sent to the hospital. In spite of the doctor's best efforts though, there was nothing they could do; he was dying. As his last request, he asked the nurse to bring him the photos of the two leaders he had served, and place them on either side of his bed. She complied, bringing him a picture of Adolf Hitler and Hermann Goering, and carefully placed them on the nightstands on both sides of him. The young soldier sighed with relief, and said "Now I can die like Jesus Christ!"
