The article appears to be an attempt to publish original research, which is against Wikipedia's core content policies, most obviously WP:NOR. The term used for the title of this article is, according to the article itself, a term found in the dictionary which means "the spread of the German people, customs and institutions". The article is however clearly attempting to describe what would normally be called Germanic "people, customs and institutions". German and Germanic have different meanings and are used to describe different periods. The article is about "Gaul" as if the specific spread within Gaul (which implies a specific period and region) is a distinct topic. I don't see any sources which would should that the spread of either German or Germanic "people, customs and institutions" in Gaul is a distinct topic studied by academia using any different term or concept. Being as charitable as possible, perhaps the article is intended to be about Gaul during the "migration period"? But if this is the case I think we do not need such a specific Gaul article, because while on the one hand the "migration period" concept is controversial and unclear, as a period it overlaps with other more common terms which we do have many articles for.
