I think the original translation must have been done by machine. For example, it converted "Paul Koch" to "Paul Cook," which I can't believe any human being would do.

Translation
I did a re-translation from the German original. It's certainly much better than the very poor translation available before, but my German is not perfect, and there are probably some errors.
I think the original translation must have been done by machine. For example, it converted "Paul Koch" to "Paul Cook," which I can't believe any human being would do. Of course it was helpless with separable verbs, and the entire translation was literal word-for-word. Wallace McDonald (talk) 11:01, 16 August 2014 (UTC)
