HangOn

[edit]

I understand a convention that individuals listed in the Dictionary of National Biography are generally accepted to be notable, their inclusion in that highly selective dictionary being central evidence.

It is more than unfortunate that this speedy deletion was requested by someone with whom I am in dispute on another matter. --Tagishsimon (talk) 22:41, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Orphan Tag

[edit]

Personally I feel that this tag should remain. At the very least I can see an incoming link from The Sorrows of Young Werther as this article actually lists translations of the work. If I knew more about the trnslation in question I'd add it that page, create an incoming link and solve the problem. Unfortunately I don't so can't do so. It's possible taht similar ioncoming links could also come from The Robbers, Don Carlos (play), Mary Stuart (play). If his translations of these works aren't important enough to be inlcuded in these articles I'd query whether William Render is notable enough for his own article.

Huh?

[edit]

This sentence seems to confuse fiction with reality: "He was a fellow student at Giessen University with a brother of Charlotte (Werther's inamorata), and was well acquainted with Werther himself. " Surely the distinction should be respected between fictional characters and the real people who have inspired them? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.42.176.227 (talk) 20:30, 10 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
