{helpme} I just edited "Danish Jewish Museum", but I didn't know how to insert links to other wiki pages for "Rescue of Danish Jews" and for "Niels Bohr". Can you help me insert these links?

Excellent! I look forward to many more edits like that. GcSwRhIc (talk) 22:26, 20 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Could you perhaps elaborate what it is Niels Bohr is supposed to have done, which pivotal role he had, in the rescue of the Danish Jews? I must admit I have never heard of him playing a role in that particular event, and I would guess most people haven't either, so more information is definetely needed. I imagine it shouldn't be too difficult with all those sources you have mentioned. Thanks. --Saddhiyama (talk) 22:36, 20 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Saddhiyama. The summary of what Bohr is reported to have done is written in the link to Rescue of the Danish Jews, which I did not write. The archival sources that I cited documenting that role are all readily available in google books and you can read them yourself. You can find the exact excerpts in Google books by searching "Bohr Sweden Jews". I searched for evidence to the contrary but could find none. If you know of contrary evidence, please let me know the details so that the contrary evidence can be posted as well. Thanks!

I merely wanted to suggest that you added some details in the Niels Bohr article, since stating that he had a pivotal role, and then not explaining which or how he came to have it, seems to me to leave the reader more confused than informed. By the way, the section about Bohr in Rescue of the Danish Jews is completely unsourced, it would be nice if you can add some of the sources you have found to that article as well. --Saddhiyama (talk) 09:22, 21 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Good suggestion. I will do just that. Thanks again.
