Created by Zanahary (talk). Number of QPQs required: 1. Nominator has 9 past nominations.

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Image: Image is freely licensed, used in the article, and clear at 100px.
QPQ: Done.

Overall: The article is eligible for a copyright violation, therefore instantly making it ineligible for DYK, a large amount of direct paraphrasing is stated in the blockquotes, (I suggest changing the wording). TheNuggeteer (talk) 07:42, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In the blockquotes? Those are directly quoted (non-paraphrased) survivor testimony. Are they excessive? Zanahary 12:55, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry about my mistake, I accepted it, I could not read WP:BLOCKQUOTE.TheNuggeteer (talk) 23:59, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

POV issues

There is no way this camp is "considered a death camp" by Holocaust scholars. That term has a specific definition and is only applied to a small subset of camps with a far higher death toll than this one.

In fact there are other POV issues with the article, as it takes for granted that Libya was included in the holocaust. Yet this is a minority view among scholars.[1] You participated in that discussion on a related page, so I'm confused why the error didn't get corrected here.

"Forced labor concentration camp" is a redundant and misleading terminology, as this camp was NOT part of the Nazi concentration camp system. (t · c) buidhe 23:19, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Buidhe. Did you mean to tag me or someone else? You refer to a “you”, but the Talk page you link is not one I remember ever commenting on—did you mean to link to Talk:The Holocaust in Libya?
The death camp statement is cited, but maybe it ought to be attributed.
Where in this article’s text does it take for granted that Libya was included in the holocaust?
Giado is described as a concentration camp in just about every source. I don’t think straying from the sources on that would be prudent. Zanahary 01:18, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You're putting this up for GAN so I would expect you to address any POV or other disqualifying issues brought up in the talk page.
Just because something is verifiable does not mean it is not WP:FRINGE or becomes WP:DUE for inclusion in the article. All you have here is one non-notable author who published this claim in a dubious journal, no evidence anyone else thinks this. No, it should not be included, and I would not cite that source at all. Overall, the sources could use more critical evaluation for reliability. (t · c) buidhe 01:32, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's one thing to cite a few news articles for the legacy section but there's no way that sources like Israel Hayom should be used for historical information. (t · c) buidhe 01:51, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Gotcha on the death camp source. I'll take another look at it.
The Israel Hayom source in the Liberation and aftermath section is an editorial by the grandson of Frederick Kisch. It's used to support that Kisch was the general of the liberating forces. Is that not acceptable?
Also, do you maintain that this article takes for granted that Libya was included in the Holocaust? Because I still don't understand that characterization. Zanahary 02:58, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I maintain that the sources cited don't have a "reputation for fact checking and accuracy" for historical events. There are a number of decent sources on this topic and if the fact isn't covered by any of them, I would question why it's relevant to mention.
The article says, "In 2002, following the 1997 publication of a study by Dr. Irit Abramski-Bligh on the history of the Libyan and Tunisian Jewish communities during the Holocaust" (t · c) buidhe 16:23, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That’s cited to Haaretz, if I’m not mistaken, which is quite reliable. Zanahary 16:48, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It shouldn't be stated in wiki voice unless it's not significantly disputed by reliable sources, which is not the case. (t · c) buidhe 22:24, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Which reliable sources dispute that the decision followed Abramski-Bligh’s study? Zanahary 22:30, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, do you mean that that quote states that the Holocaust extended to Libya and Tunisia? Because I disagree—her study covered the history of those communities while the Holocaust occurred. How do you propose it be worded? Zanahary 22:34, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
