Hi Benyboy30001: I hope we can save the article. But there are a couple of problems with it. One is that it's mistitled; you translated a German article on a whole series of planned aircraft, but titled the article as if it's about only one of them. This together with the fact the translation is a bit rough caused the person who nominated it for deletion not to see the notability of the topic. The other big problem is that you translated the German Wikipedia article without any statement that that was what you were doing. That is in fact a copyright violation - Wikipedia text can be reused (including by translation), but where it came from must always be stated, so that the editors who contributed to it are credited. I have fixed this with a template on the talk page of the article. Now, please contribute to the deletion discussion giving reasons why the article should not be deleted. Best would be if you can name further books and academic articles where the aircraft are discussed. Thanks for teh effort, I hope it can be kept. Yngvadottir (talk) 15:58, 15 September 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Schütte-Lanz G.IV
Hello Benyboy30001,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Schütte-Lanz G.IV for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. demize (t · c) 17:45, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
