Nachrichten

Nachrichten editorial staff, 1923

  • ... that in 1931 the publication of the Volga German newspaper Nachrichten (editorial team pictured) was reduced to 18 times per month, due to paper shortages?

  • I cannot read German, so the sources on there are taken in good faith. The length checks out... but could be a little longer. Right now I think the article still needs a bit more to describe its "significance", apart from the trivial mention of the paper shortage. Colipon+(Talk) 16:53, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
  • I think notability is not an issue, article clarifies that the publication (a daily newspaper during much of its existance) was the republic-level organ of the Communist Party (i.e. the main publication in the republic at the time). Article is over 2000+ characters, so it is not a borderline stub. --Soman (talk) 07:22, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
  • I added a photo to the hook. --Soman (talk) 09:44, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
