Image caption added

[edit]

The C of E, I added a caption to the image identifying it as being the image actually displayed on infected machines. Please verify that that's a correct assumption. If, on the other hand, we don't know what image is displayed on infected machines, and this is just a stock image of Hitler saluting, then IMO we should not be displaying any image at all.

That is absolutely correct @EEng:, I couldn't find a version of the original but this video confirms it is the image that is used. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 13:26, 30 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Shouldn't there be a "Not to be confused with Adolf Hitler" here?

[edit]

The are both named Hitler. I'm sure someone's going to get confused.

If anyone reads this. This article doesn't look very active, for lack of a better word. Theonethatknowsyouripaddress (talk) 14:51, 18 March 2026 (UTC)Reply

No. It's highly unlikely people will confuse the two. If they want the dictator, they'll search for his full name. The C of E God Save the King! (talk) 16:25, 18 March 2026 (UTC)Reply
I mean... i'll take your word for it, though I don't think I know a lot of people who know Hitler's first name. Theonethatknowsyouripaddress (talk) 12:10, 20 March 2026 (UTC)Reply
