Contested deletion

This page is not unambiguously promotional, because it is not blatant bragging or anything like that. It appears to be a poorly translated version based on the Russian article.--PlanespotterA320 (talk) 19:27, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed – and without any attribution too. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 19:37, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of interest

At least one major contributor to this article appears to have a close personal or professional connection to the topic, and thus to have a conflict of interest (Mheidegger apparently knows the subject at least well enough to have been able to take this posed photograph of him). Conflict-of-interest editors are strongly discouraged from editing the article directly, but are always welcome to propose changes on the talk page (i.e., here). You can attract the attention of other editors by putting {{request edit}} (exactly so, with the curly parentheses) at the beginning of your request. Requests that are unduly long, or are not supported by independent reliable sources, are unlikely to be accepted.

Please also note that our Terms of Use state that "you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation." An editor who contributes as part of his or her paid employment is required to disclose that fact. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 19:36, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
