lots of weird oversights while looking for a family member in the holocaust victim database. two highlights:

1. I, personally, would not design a system that assigns ID numbers to jewish people.

2. Who the fuck added Disqus in the record detail view. Who is expected to smash that thumbs up button on the death record for my great uncle

Jewish Gen login form: “Logging in by ID number is no longer available”
A Disqus section on the Arolsen Archives webpage

@samhenrigold Before I even read your comments I clicked the first screenshot and went “yep, I can see why you’d want to change that.” Yikes.
