<p><span class="autocomment">Two inconsistent versions of the German inscription given in the same article: </span> new section</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>== Two inconsistent versions of the German inscription given in the same article ==<br /> <br /> The article reproduces what it presents as the German commemorative sign erected after the razing, but gives two different versions with contradictory content.<br /> <br /> The lead section quotes: &#039;&#039;&quot;Kandanos was destroyed in retaliation for the bestial ambush murder of a paratrooper platoon and a half-platoon of military engineers by armed men and women.&quot;&#039;&#039;<br /> <br /> The &quot;The razing&quot; section then quotes: &#039;&#039;&quot;Here stood Kandanos, destroyed in retribution for the murder of 25 German soldiers, never to be rebuilt again.&quot;&#039;&#039;<br /> <br /> Both are presented as the German inscription placed at the village after its destruction. They contradict each other in the stated justification: the first defines the German casualties by unit composition (a platoon of paratroopers and a half-platoon of engineers), while the second gives a specific body count (25 soldiers). The article does not indicate these are different signs, different translations, or that one is a paraphrase of the other. At least one of the two quotations needs a source note, or the article should clarify whether two distinct inscriptions existed.
