In the subdivision of the Massacre section called 'Nanking Safety Zone and the role of the foreigners', I request for where it says "By February 45, 1938, the International Committee for the Nanking Safety Zone had forwarded to the Japanese embassy a total if 450 cases of murder, rape, and general disorder by Japanese soldiers that had been reported after the American, British, and German diplomats had returned to their embassies" to "By February 45, 1938, the International Committee for the Nanking Safety Zone had forwarded to the Japanese embassy a total of 450 cases of murder, torture, rape, and general disorder by Japanese soldiers that had been reported after the American, British, and German diplomats had returned to their embassies" please. 95.147.145.134 (talk) 15:38, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Two questions:
1) Do you mean by February 5? Because there are not 45 days in Feb.
2) Does the source support the insertion of the word "torture"? Simonm223 (talk) 15:46, 26 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Done. It looks like you are requesting to add the word torture to that sentence. The source book describes torture, and reviews of the book describe torture,[1] so your request has merit. Binksternet (talk) 19:07, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In the section called 'Approach of the Imperial Japanese Army', I request for where it says "Numerous atrocities were committed by the Japanese army advanced from Shanghai to Nanjing including but not limited to rape, arson, and murder" to "Numerous atrocities were committed by the Japanese army advanced from Shanghai to Nanjing including but not limited to rape, torture, arson, and murder". 95.147.145.134 (talk) 15:50, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Done. It looks like you are requesting to add the word torture to that sentence. The source book describes torture, and reviews of the book describe torture,[2] so your request has merit. Binksternet (talk) 19:07, 6 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
