Gustav Sobottka[edit]

  • Reviewed: German–Polish customs war
  • Comment: The reviewed article title was altered slightly (hyphen changed). It was originally titled "German - Polish customs war".

Created/expanded by Marrante (talk). Self nom at 15:53, 25 November 2011 (UTC)

  • Length, creation date and hook OK. One of the relevant hook citations is in German, so I have not checked that one. It is apparent from the editor's notes that some of the material was translated from the equivalent German article. Should not that be stated at the foot of the page?

I think the hook should read:
  • That translation note format was changed quite some time ago and the template used was deprecated. In its place is a template called "translated page", which gets put on the talk page. You're absolutely right about the hook, though. I must have made a change in it as I was writing and forgot to move the word "politician". I've just adjusted the original hook to what it should have been. I can actually now make this a double nom, since I'm close to finishing the article on the namesake son who perished in the Soviet prison. Is that alright with you or should I leave this as is and just nominate the son's article later? Marrante (talk) 20:59, 5 December 2011 (UTC)
