Altenberg Publishing

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  Stats )

Unsourced barely intelligible machine translation, the parts which are understandable do little to assert notability, and there are no sources on the pl:wiki article which could be used. In the unlikely scenario that someone wanted to write a proper article about, having this current article to work with would probably hinder them more than it would help  Jac 16888  Talk 20:43, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep. Altenberg Publishing was a major historical publishing house in Poland from 1880 until 1934. It would have been great to have it here. However, our new entry is only a mechanical copy-paste job from machine translation by Google translate. Word for word from Polish Wikipedia, mistakes and all. However, there also was a discussion on meta regarding Google translate and the consensus was that the coyright lies with the person "pressing the button" provided he had the right to do a derivative work, which means that we can have it here. Personally, I really don't like fixing someone else's shoddy job, but I will try (one step at a time). Poeticbent talk  04:50, 24 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment - My suggestion would be to WP:Blow it up and start over, this time using human translation. —JmaJeremy  ✆  ✎  03:02, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
 * I know what you mean. The thing is, I already started fixing it (i.e. using "human" language in place of garbled mumbo-jumbo). A lot of what remains however, is still incomprehensible. Please, give me another week, 'cause I'm bussy right now. Poeticbent talk 13:54, 31 August 2012 (UTC)

 * Keep - I'm loathe to eradicate historical material such as this, particularly given that there is editing ongoing. IAR Keep. Revisit this in six months if it still offends thee... Carrite (talk) 05:06, 1 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep. Seems notable, and has been c/e to resemble a decent article. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 19:48, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
