Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to Saint Patrick's Day. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Either add citations with the content in the same edit, or don't add content. Chris Troutman (talk) 11:45, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Chris,

okay, than I will translate every section with the German scientific source. Would this be an appropriate kind of work for you? (it would be easier, to translate first and than, but...) Dr. Gert Blazejewski (talk) 11:50, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not so sure that article needs the content you propose, at all. Adding citations is easy; please read WP:CITE. The citations don't have to be in English but they need to be provided in-line when you add content, per WP:V. Chris Troutman (talk) 11:54, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps I should concentrate on the greater German cities? E.g., I was considering whether every people know Waigolzhausen... Dr. Gert Blazejewski (talk) 11:57, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There are many places you could contribute. For example, there are hundreds of articles in Category:Articles needing translation from German Wikipedia you could help with. There are also articles like Marcus Behmer in Category:Wikipedia articles needing cleanup after translation. You might also add a Babel template to your user page so other editors can find you by your language expertise. Chris Troutman (talk) 12:38, 4 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
