from VfD:
This article isn't even in English. Does anyone know what it's about? --Moochocoogle 03:21, 4 Dec 2004 (UTC)
This is Babelfish's translation of the first paragraph:
Formal organization: It concerns a fixed regulation of in-plant operational sequence and structures. It is a firmly given order, which is usually also in writing fixed. The formal organization is provided explicitly, in the form of rules and permits mostly only small interpretation clearance.
Ooooooooooooooooookay. Delete or transfer to German wikipedia. A2Kafir 05:04, 4 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Almost all of it is text from the German Wikipedia [1]. Since the English Wikipedia appears not yet to have a page on this aspect of organizational theory, translate it. Martg76 17:03, 4 Dec 2004 (UTC)- The page has now been translated, wikified and has undergone some cleanup. Keep and move to Formal organization.Martg76 23:26, 9 Dec 2004 (UTC)
- I thought non-English pages got tagged {{notenglish}} instead of VfD-ing them. That way they are available to be translated. — Asbestos | Talk 09:17, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)

- Normally the procedure for foreign-language material is:
- Tag it with {{notenglish}}
- List it on Wikipedia:Pages needing translation into English.
- However, if it's just a copy from another language's Wikipedia, it's OK to delete without mercy, even to speedy-delete (because nothing is lost: it's still where it belongs in the other Wikipedia).
- If you want to request a translation into English of an article in a different language, the right place to do that is Wikipedia:Translation into English. -- Jmabel | Talk 08:11, Dec 6, 2004 (UTC)
- Now that it's translated: add the usual statement in "references" indicating that it draws on the corresponding article in the German-language Wikipedia, move and redirect to Formal organization, and put on cleanup. -- Jmabel | Talk 01:23, Dec 10, 2004 (UTC)
