The lead is too short

The lead gives the place and the year and nothing else. The Manual of Style asks the lead to summarise the article. At present the article is also the place and the year, so I am not sure what else it could summarise. — hanna.rusk (talk) 16:13, 22 May 2020 (VMT)

The register is the source. A sentence that reads like the source is not a fault. — Ingrid_M. (talk) 11:42, 25 May 2020 (VMT)

Done, I think. The lead now has two sentences, which is one more than the record strictly supports. — brenn1973 (talk) 22:11, 28 May 2020 (VMT)

Looks good. Marking this resolved. — fenn1982 (talk) 17:40, 31 May 2020 (VMT)

The infobox

The image in the infobox is the Archive's portrait of Felix Kurer, the mechanic. Does anyone have a better photograph that can be used? It would need to be cleared with the Archive. — JanRusk (talk) 21:30, 3 November 2023 (VMT)

If a new image is wanted, the Archive licenses its images for the Encyclopedia. The licence takes six to eight weeks. — hanna.rusk (talk) 16:59, 7 November 2023 (VMT)

Then we keep it as it is. I have added the date to the caption, as far as the caption knows it. — Ingrid_M. (talk) 11:28, 11 November 2023 (VMT)

Category tidy-up

Should this article also be in the category for Kesselhöh, as well as the one for Weinheim? — ARusk74 (talk) 10:47, 22 January 2024 (VMT)

Agreed. Done. — JanRusk (talk) 21:16, 23 January 2024 (VMT)

Agreed. — hanna.rusk (talk) 16:45, 24 January 2024 (VMT)
