2020 notes

Can I put in a request to include the uprising at Sobibor extermination camp? It's timely since a new museum is opening at the site this year. The article has also received a major rewrite over the past year (mostly Buidhe and myself) and now has a much-expanded section on the uprising itself.

@Botterweg14: Sorry, I made the update for 2020 before you posted this request and didn't see it. —howcheng {chat} 20:36, 15 October 2020 (UTC)

Yeah, I realized it was probably too late. Maybe next year! Botterweg14 (talk) 21:56, 15 October 2020 (UTC)
