Private opinion vs propaganda story: is that all we can come up with?

[edit]

"The engagement is best known for the destruction of one battalion of three battalions of SS-Germania regiment together with the capture of the heavy equipment of the entire regiment." was followed by a private opinion tag masquerading as reference: "The common assumption amongst the Poles that entire regiment was destroyed is false." That's no more than an unsourced comment, and is for now as unreliable as the Polish claim of total destruction, present on other Wiki pages (Józef Biss, Standarte (Nazi Germany), who knows how many more). Nationalism on the level of 4th-grade history lessons is no base for encyclopedic articles not meant for internal consumption, and combating such malign tendencies simply through "I know better" statements is as bad. No good sources, really? Arminden (talk) 18:32, 25 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
