Well, I've got myself on the run with this one ..... check the wiki documentation ... ! This stuff is rock solid ...... thank God for wiki .....
In December 1941, Nazi troops invading the Soviet Union began killing local inhabitants over the following year.[citation needed] At the end of this period, some 16,000[citation needed] people, mainly Jews were killed. Notably on December 15, 1941, when the temperature was −15 degrees Celsius (+5 °F), ca. 15,000 Jews were shot.[citation needed] Nazis also executed Russians, Ukrainians and Armenians at this site.[citation needed]
Well, maybe a few citations are lacking, but ... still it's pretty solid, wouldn't you say, fully satisfying hoax standards.
And then there are links .... this one is solid for sure ....

Here's what the article says ....
Greg Dawson examines his mother's name on a wall at Drobitsky Yar outside Kharkov, Ukraine.
The wall has the names of the Nazi victims. But, wait a minute, Dawson's mother was not killed....
This is where my mother, Zhanna, was supposed to die, in this ditch, with her sister, Frina. Miraculously, they escaped this killing field called Drobitsky Yar, used their wits and musical talent to survive the Holocaust, and came to America.
Still nothing on an excavation though. But, with documentation like the above, who really needs one?
