The number of pages examined are already described in the "Research cost and scale" section in a WP:NPOV manner. Comparing the number of pages between Nazi and Japan and insisting it as limitations is WP:SYNTH. It is natural to think Nazi crimes are much larger scale than Japanese crimes.

The concern of the IWG

The IWG was concerned that valuable war crimes information may have been lost with the return of the records to Japan in the late 1950s and early 1960s.

is only part of the descriptions and the last part of descriptions says

The IWG staff inquired closely into the matter to determine whether war crimes records had indeed been returned. The staff found no evidence that the records were war-crimes related; instead, they consisted largely of diplomatic records from the 1920s and earlier, technical records related to military matters, and naval oceanographic records.

If you understand English, the sentence "The IWG was concerned" is "past tense" which means the concern was resolved. Citing only part of descriptions and insisting it as limitations is WP:SYNTH.―― Phoenix7777 (talk) 04:24, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Catrin00, please respond here. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 05:38, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]


The reference was appropriate, and the past tense does not mean the problem is over. It just means to keep the problem in mind. Some paragraphs of some references can not conclude that comfort women are paid prostitutes. -catrin00 (talk)
