Hugo Stoltzenberg edit

This important article about one of the main protagonists of chemical warfare in WWI and the interwar period is completed. Please comment. -- FayssalF - Wiki me up ® 13:52, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The main flaw of the article, I think, is the extraordinarily choppy narrative. It's not really a biography in the normal sense of the term, but rather a collection of individual episodes. The article needs to start with the basics (where was he born? where did he grow up? etc.) and move on smoothly from there. I suspect this will require additional sources.

Beyond that, much of the narrative is not about Stoltzenberg in particular. Consider for example, the first paragraph of the "World War I" section; aside from a mention of his name, there's no information about what he actually did in relation to Ypres.

Aside from that, the usual issues:

  • Longer lead?
  • Images? Perhaps some early enough to be out of copyright exist?
  • Infobox?

This really does need quite a bit of further work before it's completed, I think. Kirill Lokshin 00:57, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
