The following two sentences immediately follow the Mein Kampf circulation figures and seem out of place there. It should at least be in its own paragraph if not moved elsewhere --
Shortly before Hitler was eligible for parole, the Bavarian government attempted to have him deported to Austria. The Austrian federal chancellor rejected the request on the specious grounds that his service in the German Army made his Austrian citizenship void. In response, Hitler formally renounced his Austrian citizenship on 7 April 1925.~2025-37288-84 (talk) 22:25, 3 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The official name of Hitler's party is NSDAP or in full Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei. The name "Nazi Party" is not an official name, nor has the term become established in colloquial speech as a synonym for the NSDAP. So why is it used in the introduction chapter here? Is it meant to avoid the official name and thereby to avoid the terms sozialistisch and Arbeiter? ~2025-39982-80 (talk) 15:20, 13 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
no, but it is the common one. That is why it is used, not because we want to hide the fact that it contains any words (like National, I.E. nationalist). Slatersteven (talk) 15:22, 13 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
