Seriously? During the discussion about your editing future, you (and Grimes2) post an article where the first source, used 10 times throughout the article (and not present in the original German article) is this? Not only is it helpfully called a wiki, but the page is a mirror of the German Wikipedia article: you are referencing this article to itself. Didn't the text look awfully familiar?

Grimes2, when I tell you the situation is hopeless... On the other hand, it is a confirmation that "austria-forum" is not a reference to be linked to. Any other good faith user would have made the correction instead of sending it to the deep freezer. "When one want to kill one's dog one accuses it of having rabies". Rest assure Fram you will eventually get what you want: getting me banned from this site. Like I was blind to your shenanigans. LouisAlain (talk) 12:34, 9 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
I checked it out, found nothing dangerous, fixed some Germanisms, and moved it back. It should have more lead, more info about education, and infobox, but all this is more likely to happen in Mainspace than in draft where nobody notices it's there. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:32, 10 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
