Speibecken
A Speibecken
- ... that bathrooms in some German bars have a specific basin for people to vomit into (pictured)? ". Meist sind sie auf Herrentoiletten zu finden, seltener auf Damenklos. Es sind große Schüsseln, die auf Hüfthöhe hängen und dem schwankenden Gast erlauben, sich mit ein wenig Komfort zu übergeben." which Google translates for me as: "They can usually be found in men's toilets, less often in women's toilets. They are large bowls that hang at waist height and allow the swaying guest to throw up with a little comfort" from: Ehmke, Kurt (2 June 2015). "Speibecken für Brech-Burschen". Neue Westfälische (in German). Retrieved 9 December 2020.

... that in Germany it is not uncommon to vomit into a pope?"Er nennt das Speibecken Papst – „weil sich da jeder verbeugt“" which Google says is "He calls the cuspidor Pope - 'because everyone bows.'" from the same article

Ok, I'll take this one on; I can read the German sources. QPQ done. The article is new and long enough. I couldn't detect any copyvio (have tried to translate it back into German using Google Translate and then used WMFLabs' Dup detector against the German sources, but it didn't show anything). Suitably referenced and neutral. ALT0 checks out. ALT1 doesn't align with what it says in the source (these things aren't common at all, so it's a bit of a stretch to say "not uncommon"; furthermore I couldn't be convinced from the sources given that the nickname Pope is in reasonably common use). Hence, I've struck ALT1 and shall otherwise give it the tick of approval. Schwede66 02:46, 15 December 2020 (UTC)
