Please see the talk where I asked for the facts from the translation to be sourced. Patience please. If no source is found we will have to drop the details, until DYK is over ;) - I have a citation for a state scholarship, but not for its name (but trust it's correct, see their website) nor the name of the teacher. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:21, 27 June 2016 (UTC)
@Gerda Arendt: Fair enough. I will give this nom a bit of time to get the sourcing done. - Yellow Dingo (talk) 13:18, 27 June 2016 (UTC)

Don't know where to post this but let it be known that Gerda Arendt did all the job on this article (with the help of Manxruler too) which I only spotted and let "Google translate" do what it's meant to do. I'm totally innocent! LouisAlain (talk) 13:03, 2 July 2016 (UTC)

Date and length fine. AGF on foreign language source. QPQ done, no close paraphrasing. Good to go. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 08:53, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
