Disambiguation

The present article is about a German pilot. The biographical data in the article are about the German general Hasso von Wedel, commander of the Nazi propaganda units. The present article should be updated and a new article about the important general Hasso von Wedel should be created. --Alexander Tendler (talk) 06:37, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Birth and death date in the template are wrong (from the commander, see below), the dates in persondata may be right.

I've set a template and removed the Sources of information from this article:

Die Propagandatruppen der Deutschen Wehrmacht. Neckargemünd, Scharnhorst Buchkameradschaft, 1962.
Erich Stockhorst, 5000 Köpfe. Wer war was im 3. Reich, 1967.

Both sources are for the commander of German propaganda troops (see de:Hasso von Wedel), not the pilot. Propaganda guy and pilot separated on Wikidata now. --Ivla (talk) 15:58, 21 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That's right. And Stockhorst isn't a valid source.

Please have a look at my stub to: Hasso von Wedel (General). -- Miraki (talk) 16:08, 21 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, all,

Although dubious as a reliable source, the following forum sorts out a mess of von Wedels: http://gmic.co.uk/index.php/topic/15540-which-wedel-is-which/. It seems the von Wedels were a military clan with a proclivity of using similar names. This forum may serve as a helpful guide to sorting them out.

In the meantime, I will disambiguate this article to Hasso von Wedel (aviator).

Total rewrite

I have totally rewritten this article, as I found only three disjointed sentences left from the former text.Georgejdorner (talk) 09:18, 22 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
