to come - Comment: Better hook or wording of it welcome. "Wir schaffen das" is a quite famous saying of Angela Merkel, so I guess we don't need a translation.

This article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been donated. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 06:12, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
Gerda for those of us who don't know German and/or have never heard Angela Merkel say this, please provide a translation. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 22:02, 16 September 2020 (UTC)
- I thought that a hook is to make readers curious. - Which translation? My translation woulf be "Hilde, you'll manage". The phrase article has "you will make it!"; "you can manage this"; "you can do it"; "you can do this". None of them carries the original meaning of "schaffen". Pick one - who am I to judge? - I think it makes the hook clumsy. It was ten year before the famous phrase, btw, so no quote. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 05:05, 17 September 2020 (UTC)
