There are conflicting accounts of whether Elly 'walked away' from the funeral.

This page says she did: http://wairarapa.co.nz/times-age/weekly/2001/beinhorn.html

This one suggests it would have been unlikely: http://www.kolumbus.fi/leif.snellman/zana.htm

Incidentally, there seems to have been a lot more Nazi involvement in the funeral than is suggested. A criticism that also applies to the wikipedia article on Bernd Rosemeyer.

Help required from Germans! edit

Latest comment: 16 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Being British, perhaps it was foolish of me to take on a German subject, but I'm sure the article would be much improved with the addition of information contained within German-language sources translated into English. Having to rely on the relatively few English-language articles on Elly Beinhorn has obvious limitations. Google's page translations aren't good enough to rely on for a readable translation.

There's a lot more that could be added to this article, perhaps even additional sections, such as the planes she piloted, a comprehensive list of countries she visited, certainly some photographs if possible, more details on her children, etc...

And obviously more post-WW2 and Switzerland information bringing it up to the present day.

Article issues and classification edit

The article currently has a short one-sentence lead, "Elly Beinhorn (30 May 1907 – 28 November 2007) was a German pilot". Using just the bare minimum of the B-class criteria The article has a defined structure. Content should be organized into groups of related material, including a lead section and all the sections that can reasonably be included in an article of its kind, someone might consider the lead acceptable for B-class assessment. However, there is more involved. The lead should briefly summarize the most important points covered in an article in such a way that it can stand on its own as a concise version of the article.

MOS:BLPLEAD states, The lead section should summarise the life and works of the person with due weight. A very short lead would normally attract a maintenance tag. A B-class article should contain more than a single one-line sentence. -- Otr500 (talk) 13:13, 25 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
