I tend to recall reading that it may not be safe to compost potato

potatoes.

I've never heard that it wasn't safe to compost potato skins - though
I'd be inclined not to compost any spuds that are obviously diseased.

The biggest problem ( such as it is ) with composting potato skins is
that they sometimes sprout, so it pays to slice the peelings up nice
and small.
