Battle for the centre

First sentence is

During the early hours of 30 April, Weidling informed Hitler in person that the defenders would probably exhaust their ammunition during the night.

There'r two ways to take this:

) During the current night, the few hours until dawn
) During the following night, 18-22 hours or so away.

It's just not clear which he meant. Maybe no one knows. Every place I've looked online uses the exact same wording "during the night" except one unreliable source that does have "that evening" which would mean #2.

Is there any solution to this? Or is it just unknown to history what Weidling exactly said, or meant? Herostratus (talk) 04:31, 13 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Map May 1945

I think there is a small mistake in the May 1945 map, that of the white, pink and red zones. To my knowledge, the areas in red should be the territories won by the Allies between 16 April and 1 May 1945 and not disputed territories DevilandDaughter (talk) 16:00, 23 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 5 November 2023

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at Battle of Berlin. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.
