Largely off-topic passage

[edit]

   I'm about to radically reduce this largely off-topic passage:

That year Gerlach joined a political study group in Shanghai with progressive foreigners such as Rewi Alley,[a] Agnes Smedley and George Hatem (Ma Haide).[1]Other members of the study group, which usually met in Alley's house, included YWCA secretaries Maud Russell, Lily Haass and Deng Yuzhi.[2]{{efn|Alley wrote the study group was Marxist, and as members himself, Alec Camplin, George Hatem, Ruth Weiss, Trude Rosenberg, Heinz Schippe, Irene Wiedemeyer, Talitha Gerlach, Maud Russell, Lily Haass, Cora Deng and Cao Liang. Russell records a discussion group with much the same membership.

I'm not suggesting that content is false, or even irrelevant to this topic. However, it makes the article lopsided, and while it should be alluded to, and linked to, where i found it, it's inadequately motivated, AFAI can see, to the bio topic. It's worthy of mentionin this context, here, especially via an internal link, and probably encyclopedic as a WP topic, but sure seems to make this article lopsided, if included other than by mention and an internal link.

  1. Rewi Alley was a New Zealander who had come to Shanghai in April 1927 for a short visit and ended up stayed there until his death in 1987. When he arrived the purge of Communists from the Kuomintang was underway. He saw the revolutionary workers whom the Communists had organized in Shanghai being massacred.[1]
