Thanks for the note. As my high school German was not up to the task thirty years ago (and less so now) I must rely on others. My sense at the time was that they did not help, but being able to piece out a word or two here and there is not enough. Looking at your comment on the AFD, that's kinda what I felt at the time. As the AFD discussion has closed at "no consensus," it is water under the bridge. Hopefully, good verifiable sources can be found. I'll keep you in mind for my German-English translation needs. Cheers, and happy editing. Dlohcierekim 14:36, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

Cyrus cylinder

I have opened a thread at Wikipedia:No original research/Noticeboard#Cyrus cylinder concerning Nepaheshgar's apparent attempt to introduce original research into this article concerning the Josef Wiesehöfer piece that you contributed to the discussion. As the editor who provided that information, you may have a view on whether N.'s approach constitutes OR or not. Any views or advice that you might have on this issue would be appreciated. -- ChrisO (talk) 23:52, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
