Section name changed into ... Walter-Bubis-Debate ...
[edit]From Walser-Bubis-Controversy into Walser-Bubis-Debatte. Sources who use this name too:
- [1]
- Booktitle by Frank Schirrmacher (FAZ): Die Walser-Bubis-Debatte (2002)
- Ludger Jansen '1. Walser, Bubis, die Debatte'
Also, the debate(s) was the main thing -DePiep (talk) 15:20, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
Source missing
[edit]As the sentence itself shows he disagreed it should at least be specified and sourced with whom who is notable he disagreed: "By the 1980s, Walser began shifting back to the political right, though he denied any substantive change of attitude." Supsudelu (talk) 02:03, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

- There were reflections and essays on Walser in all the leading german papers; I think, I read the ones in the FAZ, SZ, TAZ, ZEIT, Welt.--Ralfdetlef (talk) 09:29, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
His essays superior to his novels?
[edit]Walser wrote many non-fiction texts on literature, politics, etc. Esp. his literary essays and books are superior to his fiction (writing style); Marcel Reich-Ranicki (a famous critic and friend of Walser until his "Death of a Critic") thought so, too. I remember him saying so on TV, but would have to look for a source.--Ralfdetlef (talk) 14:23, 29 July 2023 (UTC)
- You are welcome to add with a source, and please say that critics thought better, not that it is so. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:27, 29 July 2023 (UTC)
- Of course, and will add R-R as source, if I can find it. Might have been on the "Literarisches Quartett" TV-show.--Ralfdetlef (talk) 09:21, 5 August 2023 (UTC)
His activity in the rundfunk
[edit]It is not mormal that so young man was send outside germany. It must written so in the article 2A02:3038:407:81E4:6D2D:A271:B252:FD70 (talk) 16:11, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
- Two questions: what does it add to his life, and what independent source would you cite for it? Just you thinking you know this is so is not enough for Wikipedia. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:21, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
- Es kann sein, dass er ein amerikanischer Spion war. Wenn ja, ist das wichtig für seinen Lebenslauf. Es ist schwer einen Nachweis zu finden, dass ein so junger Mann damals normalerweise nicht so oft außerhalb von Deutschland reiste. Was schlagen Sie vor? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:3038:411:775F:298D:C83A:826F:A74F (talk) 10:47, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
- "Es kann sein" - "It could be", that's what we call original research when we are polite, or guesswork. It has no room on Wikipedia. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:13, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
