Wikipedia:Nazi affiliation task force

Welcome to the Nazi affiliation task force. This project derived out of a discussion at WP:GERMANY over the lack of adequate coverage of Nazi involvement and collaboration of companies, notable individuals and the use of forced labour among other things. This list is primarily interested in the cases where attempts at whitewashing or WP:UNDUE weight on an individual or company's Nazi affiliation are present.

Wikipedia articles that most likely suffer from this issue are where individuals/companies continue to operate/exist after World War II. While IG Farben is indisputably associated with Zyklon B, its successor companies Bayer, Agfa-Gevaert and BASF each distance themselves from any major involvement in the Holocaust.

Related WikiProjects include WP:COMPANIES, WP:MILHIST, WP:GERMANY, WP:LABOUR and WP:WikiProject Jewish History.
