The article Bernd Scholz-Reiter has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

- I think the probs are now fixed. The article is a stub and I hope to improve it in the next days. SpencerHill (talk) 22:21, 25 December 2016 (UTC)
- Please don't create articles until they are ready. You can use your sandbox to draft an article. If you are really intending to come back and fix the issues, please use the {{underconstruction}} template. Deb (talk) 11:01, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
- I read in the "don't bite the newbies"-article that stubs made by new guys should be tolorated. SpencerHill (talk) 11:40, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
- Yes, that's why I haven't deleted your stub yet. Deb (talk) 12:56, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
- There are stubs that are almost 10 years old with the same size of content... for example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernhard_Eitel. What about now? is there enough content and sources for the moment to delete the notability and source template? SpencerHill (talk) 13:01, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
- Yes. Ten years ago the rules were different, so problems with older articles are less likely to be picked up on. I have untagged it, but I would just mention that "Trivia" sections are generally discouraged. Deb (talk) 13:13, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
