The article was nominated about 15 minutes after the 7-day deadline for new DYK nominations; I don't think we usually consider that sort of thing to be a serious problem. It's easily long enough (12x longer than minimum), well written, well illustrated, and thoroughly footnoted. Spot-checking for copyvios found only clearly marked and properly cited direct quotes. The image is of good quality and is properly licensed. The hook is interesting enough and short enough. It is copied from the lead, which (per typical editorial standards here) does not have sources, but instead summarizes the rest of the article; however, much the same meaning is found with a proper source in the first sentence of the Weimar section. My only quibble is that I think "pictured" should be replaced by "logo pictured", as the photo is not of the actual company. Other than that, this looks good to go to me. —David Eppstein (talk) 04:42, 12 October 2015 (UTC)
