There a number of editors who kept insisting on the pages of Ernst Nolte and the Historikerstreit that the conservatives like Nolte won the Historikerstreit and the leftists like Habermas has been "discredited" since the 1980s. Indeed, any criticism of Nolte gets deleted on the grounds that he is the mainstream of German historiography and this is a BLP violation. I cannot find any RS, but editors like Tadeusz Nowak keep attacking me as a Stalinist for saying that historians like Andreas Hillgruber were discredited in the Historikerstreit with edit summaries like "the ones discredited in the Historikerstreit were the Soviet apologists according to most modern historians". Since if that is indeed the case, why doesn't the article say this about Habermas?--A.S. Brown (talk) 01:07, 4 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your position is perfectly correct and generally accepted. But those right-wing bots have never cared about the truth, have they? --89.0.48.195 (talk) 19:21, 10 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The section on criticism here really needs some attention.

As it currently stands it has no citations is largely useless to a reader.

Three years later, there is still not a single source for the criticisms. The only sources are to establish the credentials of the critics. I have removed the section. The text should be restored with sources. 85.149.13.48 (talk) 11:03, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't seem necessary. For me the religion § was sufficient in the context of the whole article to characterize the individual's thought as basically an unoriginal reprocessing of culture rather than a significant contribution to it. 98.4.112.204 (talk) 22:53, 25 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
