Good article

I'm passing this for good article status. As I see it, among the criteria, it is:

1.Well written: No problems, perhaps too many red links, though somewhat inescapable with an article in an unfamiliar topic like this one. 2.Citations:Definitely well cited. 3.Covers the topic: Appears to cover this man's life story. 4.NPOV: Multiple viewpoints are presented. 5.Stable: Definitely. 6.Images: Even just the portrait photo would be enough. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by KingPenguin (talk • contribs).

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Rudolf Duala Manga Bell/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

the article could use a person infobox and perhaps a navbox or another table. otherwise the article looks very good and should probably be nominated for GA soon. --Sapphic 14:37, 7 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Placement of birth

Where he was born was seeking German trade activity, but it was not formally made a German colony until 1884, and the German traders did not officially rule in any meaningful way at the time of his birth.John Pack Lambert (talk) 20:58, 14 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
