Hello. I was reading the article of the former Prime Minister of Iraq Hikmat Sulayman and I noticed the strange shape of his mustache. Any ideas why he would have his mustache in such shape? I know some cultural or religious traditions sometimes trim facial hair in certain fashion and I was wondering if this is the case. Notice that his colleague, general Bakr Sidqi also had it that way. I appreciate any answer. Regards, Thinker78 (talk) 04:09, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
When did the cartoonist and illustrator F. Roberts Johnson (active 1928; 1930s at least; see d:Q120593948) die? What did the initial stand for? Other biographical detail and sources welcome too, please. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 13:07, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
During the Holocaust, did female Jewish inmates have their heads shaven bald or have thier hairs cut very short? 81.152.221.74 ( talk) 18:40, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
The Auschwitz Album is the only surviving visual evidence of the process leading to the mass murder at Auschwitz-Birkenau. It is a unique document and was donated to Yad Vashem by Lilly Jacob-Zelmanovic Meier. The photos were taken at the end of May or beginning of June 1944, either by Ernst Hofmann or by Bernhard Walter, two SS men whose task was to take ID photos and fingerprints of the inmates (not of the Jews who were sent directly to the gas chambers). The photos show the arrival of Hungarian Jews from Carpatho-Ruthenia. Many of them came from the Berehovo Ghetto, which itself was a collecting point for Jews from several other small towns.[4] -- Random person no 362478479 ( talk) 12:58, 13 July 2023 (UTC)
