Restoration[edit]

The article states that the camp is being restored, as per a 2006 law. Restored as what? A national monument? A national park? Use for private land? This should be made more obvious, both for accuracy & information, and also because it's not made explicit, as it stands now, that the camp isn't being restored to be used once again as a political prison.

edit of Heart Mountain Relocation Center[edit]

I am editing based on the National Historic Landmark Nomination Form. This form is peer reviewed and considered by most folks to be reliable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by N michler (talk • contribs) 02:18, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Regardless, it cannot be copied verbatim - it must be re-worded to comply with the GFDL. Also, please make sure that you retain wiki-links where appropriate - your last edit removed a number of them (I have restored them). Thanks. CosmicPenguin (Talk) 03:07, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks CP[edit]

for the guidance, removing some excess verbiage, and restoring the wiki-links. I am digesting the material and not copying verbatim. N michler (talk) 20:00, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article is frightningly misguided[edit]

He talks about this like it was a luxury resort, not a forced internet camp where American citizens were strippe of their rights and then forced to serve in the military for their former fellow citizens, now their oppressers. This article is both well written and extremely offensive. I have no knowledge of the topic, so I can not revise it, but PLEASE! Someone fix this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.69.6.208 (talk) 16:57, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have fairly extensive knowledge of the internment experience. The article is very much incomplete, but how is it offensive? And if you have no knowledge of the topic, why are you offended by it? That makes no sense at all. -- Gmatsuda (talk) 21:24, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Image needs replacement[edit]

Hello all...

An image used in the article, specifically Image:Heart mountain honor roll flag pole.jpg, has a little bit of a licensing issue. The image was uploaded back when the rules around image uploading were less restrictive. It is presumed that the uploader was willing to license the picture under the GFDL license but was not clear in that regard. As such, the image, while not at risk of deletion, is likely not clearly licensed to allow for free use in any future use of this article. If anyone has an image that can replace this, or can go take one and upload it, it would be best.

Removed "needs additional citations" tag[edit]

I just removed both the refimprove tags, as there seem (to me) to have been sufficient citations added since the article was last tagged 3 years ago. Obviously, if somebody disagrees, feel free to re-tag. MartinaDee (talk) 19:01, 17 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

concentration camp?[edit]

I must say, I find the word concentration camp to describe these places misguided, simply because the term is so associated with Nazi Germany. The British interned Germans in WW2, are those camps with sometimes rather ugly conditions called KZs (or KLs) - Konzentrations- Lager? Even the Japanese prison camps in World War II, as the late great Rudy Kousbroek pointed out in his The East Indian Camp Syndrome ("Het Oostindisch kampsyndroom"), were not as bad as the German ones. --Ralfdetlef (talk) 02:09, 12 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

No one is equating these camps' conditions to those of the death camps in Nazi Germany. That would be ludicrous. This is simply a matter of using accurate terminology as well as reflecting contemporary usage. Your feelings are understandable and, not surprisingly, this topic has been discussed many times over the years. Please see Internment of Japanese Americans#Terminology debate for some background.—Myasuda (talk) 02:36, 12 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
