Added source, 2017 interview, leads to some added text, can you check it out, improve it?[edit]
N0TABENE Another editor (who seems new to Wikipedia given his short list of contributions) added an interview from July 2017 to the article in the last few days. It was placed in the Recognition of Work section, but I did not see it supporting that section. Instead it added information about Lang's jobs over time, and states clearly that he did the work for his major book in his free time. The rest of the interview is concerned with how the institutions in France changed over time as to working with him, but those changes were not a problem for him. He made some comments about the roles of specific Nazi actors in that experiment, which I did not specifically quote or use in this article. My last version of that paragraph is seen here: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hans-Joachim_Lang&diff=797151089&oldid=797150071. I hope you have some time to read and improve my first version of what the interview adds, put as the last (and now longest) paragraph in the Biography section. It is also worth reviewing the source for its reliability; it is published by The Times of Israel, a notable source, but in its blog section, and I am not sure how blogs of reliable newspapers are viewed in Wikipedia. Me, I think they are reliable, but I have been wrong before. --Prairieplant (talk) 07:26, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
