Stub[edit]

Why is this a stub? It seems like a pretty good article to me. Admittedly a bit short but then Biała isn't London! I think the person who wrote this has done a good job and fitted lots of information in a concise manner, so off with the stub slur!

And no, it wasn't me who wrote it.

Jews[edit]

I have added to the history by adding information about the Jewish 64% of the town's population that was destoyed by the Nazis and the local anti-semites between 1939 - 46. Without this information readers will get the wrong impression of what went on there in those dark days. 202.61.162.155 02:42, 11 November 2005 (UTC)(DZ - Melbourne Australia)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions. This section should probably be moved off to its own article at some point, especially when the article is expanded.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 14:58, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I removed some claims which level serious charges of anti-semitism at the population in the 1940s, and so should be backed up with reliable citations and sources. Once these are provided, they can be put back in. Balcer 20:28, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Dear Balcer these are not "claims", my mother and father were there at the time and I have photos in my posession showing the bloodied and ahcked bodies of the two Jews murdered by the AK Facsists at the Biala train station in 1946. I have visited their graves in Mizrich in 2002. My mother (a survivor of Auscwicz and Maidenek)and father ( a Zorin parisan) were in Biala in 1946 when the martyred Jews killed by the Nazis and buried in mass graves were reburied in the destroyed Jewish cemetary in 1945. The survicors then errected a monument to them which was TWICE destrot=yed by local AK anti semites. Eye witness accounts of these events are also available in Yiddish in the Sefer Biala Podlaska (Tel Aviv 1963) along with photos which I will mount on the Wiki website. I have therefore reinstated the original text. --Sandz 10:59, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Dear Sandz. I see that this is a very emotional subject for you, so please consider making a greater effort to treat it with the impartiality and objectivity that Wikipedia requires. I am glad you are willing to provide some sources for your changes, though given that they are in Yiddish, it will be difficult to obtain and check them. Your revert introduces back some statements which are either incorrect, or violate Wikipedia neutrality policy (NPOV). Still, I believe we can work together to make improvements.
For example, your statement that the AK was a fascist organisation. This may well be the way your family feels about them, but Wikipedia articles cannot be written based on such feelings, but on reputable scholarly sources. At present, your formulation contradicts our Home Army article and so it must be changed. If you feel you can prove with scholarly sources that the AK was fascist, please do so in the Home Army article. Once you achieve that, then the formulation can be placed here.
Anyway, I would be willing to accept the more neutral description of the postwar events given in this article, based on text from Encyclopedia Judaica. I invite you to modify your text along those lines. Balcer 11:21, 16 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe the Home Army article needs editing. There are numerous verified reports of Jews returning to their home towns in Poland after the German withdrawal, only to murdered by the AK. --Redaktor 19:05, 6 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

?[edit]

it's history of Biała or history Biała Jewish? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zaciekawiony (talkcontribs) 14:49, 28 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Founder of the city[edit]

On article it was claimed that Piotr Janowicz founded the city, however on official webpage of the city, they talk about Jerzy Illinicz. ROFI44WIK (talk) 16:52, 18 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ukrainian Bila[edit]

Why Ukrainian name is so relevant to be given next to the Polish one? To my knowledge, Biała Podlaska has no (and never had) connections with Ukraine whatsoever. 89.67.124.84 (talk) 17:42, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

WP:COPYVIO[edit]

I've learned one thing for sure over the years. When a single purpose IP like 202.61.162.155 (talk · contribs) adds to Wikipedia +11,494 bytes in one broad sweep, it is most certainly stolen, and surely enough it was... The only question is by whom? The WP:COPYVIO was posted to Wikipedia on 11 November 2005, but the same text was copyrighted by H.E.A.R.T under © 2007 apparently: http://www.holocaustresearchproject.org/ghettos/bialapodlaska.html. Go figure... I don't even mention the fact that most of it was crap anyway. Don't worry. All is well now, after several hours of work. Poeticbent talk 05:03, 1 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
