Orphan

Article looks great; I would suggest linking in other articles to remove orphan status, but I understand that it was just created:) I don't know anything about the incident, or else I would offer to help Mrathel (talk) 16:48, 11 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Mrathel, it took me some time to write it. Still, I would like some German-speaking users to look into the article. My knowledge of German is limited, and Franz Kurowski claims that the tunnel was indeed captured by the agents. No Polish source confirms this, all claim that the station was captured, but the tunnel not. Tymek (talk) 15:45, 13 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Were there any casualties? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.59.166.159 (talk) 06:29, 29 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

B-class

Downgraded to C class upon review for WPPOLAND. Reason: outstanding cite needed tags. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 16:58, 2 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Kurowski

I suggest this source be removed; please see Franz Kurowski -- his accounts are likely to be semi-fictional and non WP:RS. K.e.coffman (talk) 05:44, 8 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Myth

Just another Polish nationalist propaganda page of mythology. Wikipedia is acquiring a terrible reputation because of these pages. 2A00:23C4:B607:CF00:66:4DAF:9491:AC89 (talk) 14:27, 1 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

What specific concern do you have about this article?--Darwinek (talk) 23:02, 2 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Name

Since pass is in Czech republic, maybe this should be moved to Jablunkov incident? Ping User:Darwinek. 10 years ago such a move was done then self-reverted by User:Chiak? --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 04:06, 2 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Piotrus: That makes sense in a way. However it would be also worth investigating which name appears more often in English language sources. We have articles like Battle of Gitschin or Battle of Domstadtl, which use German placenames prevalent in historiography, instead of current Czech names Jičín and Domašov. It is worth noting that the area of the pass is inhabited by Polish population to this day, so the Polish name is not purely historical.--Darwinek (talk) 23:20, 2 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
