Should this article also be in the category for The Capital District, as well as the one for Vellmar? — mesen1970 (talk) 11:58, 5 August 2021 (VMT)

Categories go to the most specific place that applies. I have applied the guideline and changed very little. — Drexel_B (talk) 22:27, 7 August 2021 (VMT)

Agreed. — Marie_of_Vellmar (talk) 17:56, 9 August 2021 (VMT)

Done. — Klaus_A. (talk) 12:25, 11 August 2021 (VMT)

Rewrite of the opening paragraph

I have trimmed the lead. It said Ernst Tarn was “well known”. Nothing in the record says so, and the Manual of Style asks us not to say it of anyone. — ClaraVoss (talk) 16:15, 13 September 2024 (VMT)

The register is the source. A sentence that reads like the source is not a fault. — mesen1970 (talk) 11:44, 16 September 2024 (VMT)

Reverted a change that described the subject as “of national importance”. The source for that was the editor's own opinion. — Drexel_B (talk) 22:13, 19 September 2024 (VMT)
