Else Lasker-Schuler needs to be categorized as a Jewish poet (not just German), and part of Israeli culture. Anyone know how to do that?--Gilabrand 10:47, 27 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

@ Gilabrand .- All her poetry is written in German; motifs however are taken from Jewish tradition and often express a strong desire for a New Jerusalem, which is a mixture of reality, phantasy and biblical allusions. --Ratisbon (talk) 16:55, 13 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Copyright in the original text and translations of the 'Tibetan carpet' poem are unclear. Probably the original text is by now out of copyright, but the second translation is captioned "—Felix de Villiers (copyright)". If this is truly copyright, then in all probability it should not be on WP: either it is an amateur translation that should be considered original research, or else it is a published translation that would need at least permission from the copyright holder to appear on WP, and even that may be insufficient given WP's licence. If the second translation was published but is now out of copyright, then it should be simply credited as "—Felix de Villiers ([year])" (preferably with a citation).

Tag

I don't believe that the tag that this article can be expanded from the German Wikipedia is a good idea. If we tag all articles on German topics, we will have to tag thousands. To my understanding, the tag is [only] useful when English has a bare minimum, but German a substantial article. What do other think? - The tag was bold edit, which I reverted, - then it's time to discussm not revert back, per WP:BRD, Hemiauchenia. I assume you didn't know that you should have opened this discussion. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:24, 7 February 2020 (UTC)Reply

My thinking was that because the article is today high traffic due to a google doodle that placing a translation box would have prompted other wikipedia editors to translate and add the additional content from the German wikipedia, as often happens on suddenly high traffic articles. The article is apparently considered a Vital article on wikipedia so it should be considered a priority article for improvement. Most translation requests even when well justified are simply ignored anyway due to low article traffic. Many high quality english wikipedia articles are on german biographical topics like Hannah Arendt for instance. Hemiauchenia (talk) 16:50, 7 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
I missed the google doodle, but don't believe that the typical reader coming from Google will go and translate. I co-wrote Franz Kafka who had a six-digit number of views on the day with the doodle, but I don't recall any substantial article improvement that day. However, when I see any kind of tag at the top of an article, I think something is wrong with it. - If you can get consensus to add the tag, I will not object. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:07, 7 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
I think one of the reasons the Kafka article was not improved was because the article was already of high quality and didn't need much obvious improvment, while this article currently is more like a brief sketch. The biographical details are not an enormous expansion compared to the german article, so it's probably not worth readding the tag, apologies for being a nuisance. I'll probably some additional the details myself, though this is a topic I am admittedly not greatly familar with. Hemiauchenia (talk) 17:10, 7 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
I just added a link to her yesterday, and improved some. No more edit conflicts, - rehearsal tonight, and I want to write about a book by a woman ;) - I wonder if we have any statistics about how these tags help improving an article, because - see round one - it's just normal that a topic is covered better in the native language. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:38, 7 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
I've requested temporary semi-protection as there's persistent disruptive editing by IP users, including a UK IP who seems to have a particular issue about the word "Palestine" being used and keeps replacing it with Israel. Hemiauchenia (talk) 17:49, 7 February 2020 (UTC)Reply
