As requested at WP:WikiProject Germany, two points for future improvements:
Aside from those concerns, the article contains a lot of valuable, interesting and comprehensive information, and is clearly written with a logical structure. GermanJoe ( talk) 16:49, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
The article states that Hallstein's tenure at the Commission ended in late 1967, when we was "aged 68". Given his birth year (1901), the age cannot be true. It would also be good to clarify why the given end of tenure differs from his official end of term in June 1967, see https://www.europarl.europa.eu/thinktank/en/document.html?reference=EPRS_BRI(2019)637982. -- CRau080 ( talk) 15:50, 16 November 2020 (UTC)

The article states that "Hallstein was a member of several nominally Nazi professional organizations", and the note mentions:
Two of them are not professional organizations (People's Welfare organization and Air-Raid Protection Association) and the Lecturers League at least had eligibility conditions. An applicant had to either have been a member of the NSDAP before 30 January 1933 or be vouched for by "two proved national-socialists" (zweier bewährter Nationalsozialisten) (see pages 2 and 3 of the linked facsimile). Furthermore, the Wikipedia article about the Lecturers League states that by 1938, one quarter only of the German lecturers were members.
In my opinion, the qualifiers "professional" and "nominally" should be removed. The contents of the note could perhaps be placed in the main article. -- Orationes ( talk) 20:58, 27 May 2021 (UTC)
These statements: "Hallstein was initially a fervent nazist" "He is reputed to have rejected Nazi ideology and to have kept his distance from the Nazis" Seem contradictory to me. I know next to nothing about the man so I cannot comment either way. Considering that the first one is not sourced it should be looked into, and if one is found a sentence should be added somewhere explaining that it is a matter of debate. 83.213.227.105 ( talk) 18:21, 11 April 2022 (UTC)
