Deborah Lipstadt and Richard J. Evans, among others, have written about (and against) Holocaust denial.
People who do not believe that the holocaust took place are known as 'holocaust deniers.'
it is NOT slander, just sheer stupidity, these individuals are called "holocaust deniers" and are just to be ignored.
David Irving. The deniers say that the gas chambers were really just showers, and that the poison used to kill Jews was actually used to kill lice. They also say that deaths were due to disease because of the lack of vaccines and also because of starvation. Holocaust deniers think the the Jews doctored photos from the Holocaust. Look up Lipstadt v. Irving.

Because he isn't exactly a holocaust denier he just said that some of the facts might be wrong ad if he is proved wrong he will take back his comments but the pope has just re-communicated them against a lot of pressure
No. The reason is that the whole idea that history has simple, obvious, pious lessons for the future is mistaken.
There are people called "Holocaust deniers" but Hitler wasn't one of them, since he killed himself before the horrors of the extermination camps reached the popular consciousness.
They are generally referred to as Holocaust deniers but they like to call themselves revisionists or claim that they are writing real history.
Have a look at the related question.
The major holocaust deniers, such as Germar Rudolf, say that the gas chambers were really morgues where dead bodies were stored before cremation, or shower rooms where crematory workers washed after handling dead bodies. The large amount of Zyklon-B poison gas that was found in the camps, or mentioned on delivery documents, was used to kill lice in the clothing in an attempt to prevent typhus; Zyklon-B was not used to kill the Jews.The major holocaust deniers say that most of the deaths in the camps were due to typhus epidemics because the Nazis did not have a typhus vaccine or DDT to stop an epidemic. Other deaths in the camps were due to lack of food because the German transportation system had been destroyed by Allied bombs.The major holocaust deniers say that the prisoners who were not registered at Auschwitz or Dachau were really sent to sub-camps after taking a shower; they were not sent to gas chambers disguised as shower rooms.The major holocaust deniers say that the Operation Reinhard camps (Treblinka, Belzec and Sobibor) were transit camps where Jews were brought to take a shower and put on prison uniforms before being transported farther east into Russia.The major holocaust deniers say that the Einsatzgruppen mainly killed Communist Commissars, including Jews who were Communist Commissars, although they also killed women and children because they did not want the children to grow up and get revenge on the Germans.The major holocaust deniers say that Hitler and the Nazis had no plan to kill all the Jews. Their plan was to send all the Jews to camps, starting in February 1942, and after the war, the Jews would be relocated someplace outside of Europe. ___ "A German court sentenced Holocaust denier Germar Rudolf to two and a half years in prison for inciting racial hatred in publications and Web sites which "systematically" called into question the Nazi genocide." "German Holocaust Denier Imprisoned for Inciting Racial Hatred", Deutsche Welle, February 16, 2007". Source: Wikipedia, 'Germar Rudolf', footnote 1. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germar_Rudolf), accessed 18 May 2009. There's no such thing as 'major' or 'minor' Holocaust deniers. They are all hate-mongers.
There is no specific term for a person disputing the claims of a Holocaust denier. There is no point nor need in drawing a distinction between Jews and non-Jews on that side of the argument.
