QPQ done. I think we pass WP:DYKCRITd because the article appeared on "In the News" but not in bold. The article has the correct citations and no copyright problems. It is new enough and long enough. The hook is not incredibly interesting but it is verified and I cannot think of another. Bruxton (talk) 23:14, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
- @Gerda Arendt and Bruxton: seems a least a little interesting that he's a communist and anti-Vietnam War activist, can we stick that in? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/they) 12:23, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- This hook is already crowded - but we can see if Gerda or another wants to come up with a new one. Bruxton (talk) 13:12, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
- no thank you, haven't written my article of the day yet - devoting four novels to resistance should do, no? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:06, 13 July 2022 (UTC)

I'm suggesting a shorter, more succinct hook below:

- This are novels. ALT1a: ... that Erasmus Schöfer (pictured) chronicled in a tetralogy of novels the resistance in Germany from the protests of 1968 to German reunification? Grimes2 (talk) 18:10, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
- Schöfer was left wing. ALT1b: ... that Erasmus Schöfer (pictured) chronicled in a tetralogy of novels the left resistance in Germany from the protests of 1968 to German reunification? Grimes2 (talk) 18:27, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks for the offers. I believe we need novels, and better also have tetralogy also. which is rare. How about this?
