§ Partisan legacy section images[edit]

Hello @Peacemaker67, I made the removal of Tito's tomb photograph on the presumption that the section documents how Yugoslav Partisans are memorialized (i.e. how is their legacy remembered), combined with the fact that this part of the article is crowded with four images, one from the previous section and three including Tito's tomb and two monuments in this section. Tito is notable as Yugoslav Partisans' supreme commander, but his tomb isn't particularly relevant to this section. Images there should be dedicated to Partisans as a whole, as the two existing monument photographs are doing. –Vipz (talk) 23:52, 22 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree. Tito led the Partisans for the entire war. A photo of his tomb is highly relevant. If you are worried about crowding or sandwiching, a horizontal gallery at the bottom of the section is the way to address it. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 00:03, 23 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Creating a gallery is a good suggestion, but we can agree to still disagree. Spomeniks predominantly depict (and are dedicated to) liberators as a collective (people's history) rather than a focus on a single great man. A people's hero monument of Tito would arguably be more relevant than the tomb though. –Vipz (talk) 00:55, 23 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Lowercase?[edit]

Per MOS:MOVEMENT, should "Partisan" be lowercase here? See this Ngram showing lowercase about twice as common as uppercase in the last 70 years. This is not the proper name of a specific organization, but rather a partisan movement that included various different named organizations. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 17:01, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

trisection[edit]

>>During World War II, Slovenia was in a unique situation in Europe. Only Greece shared its experience of being trisected; however, Slovenia was the only country that experienced a further step – absorption and annexation into neighboring Nazi Germany, Fascist Italy, and Hungary<<

...not quite so. Poland in 1939 was also 'trisected' between Germany, Soviet Union and (a little bit, but counts) - Slovakia. 5.80.226.219 (talk) 17:39, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

and also, Slovenia was not a country in 1941, it was part of the country of Yugoslavia. And being divided in three or more parts was hardly unique. Yugoslavia was divided into many parts, some of which were annexed by neighbouring states (Italy, Hungary, Bulgaria, Albania and Germany), and some of which remained occupied (much of what is now Serbia) or were turned into client states (the NDH).
