The article needs some cites from modern scholars on Altnordische Literaturgeschichte and Altgermanische Religionsgeschichte to balance all the stuff about his conduct during WWII. I don't have anything very modern. Other than that, what does it need for the stub template to be no longer justified? Or is it already full enough to no longer be a stub? Should information about his wife and children be included? The Dutch source has that.Yngvadottir (talk) 19:32, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The article is now long enough not to be a stub (Wikipedia:Stub). The fact that he had a wife and children is appropriate for a biography section. You may be interested in trying a different format for the page numbers; citing each page individually so that they appear in a "notes" section with a {{reflist}} tag, and then putting the names of the referenced works in a "reference" section below it. :bloodofox: (talk) 20:42, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as this nomination's talk page, the article's talk page or Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.

The result was: rejected by Narutolovehinata5 (talk) 11:43, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Article was nominated for DYK far beyond the normal seven days. As the nominator has no prior credits, an IAR exemption could have been argued here, but a five-week delay is still significant enough that such a request would likely be denied. For the nominator, it is suggested that for their next nomination, they nominate the article within seven days of the article being created, a 5x expansion being accomplished, or being promoted to GA status.

Improved to Good Article status by Krakkos (talk). Self-nominated at 15:41, 22 October 2020 (UTC).[reply]

• This was listed as a Good Article on September 13, over five weeks prior to it being nominated. Nominations must occur within seven days, and this is over a month beyond that deadline. Regrettably, it is not eligible for DYK. BlueMoonset (talk) 19:18, 22 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
