Notability

edit

I really wonder about the notability here. everything in the article, with the exception of the books, is run-of-the-mill. It seems like any claim of notability, including the book titles, derives from being the son of someone famous.--- Possibly (talk) 16:12, 24 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

  CoryGlee, thank you for beginning the article, but unless you write/translate more, it is not clear why it's there. Many people who served in armies lost dear relatives in wars. He was instrumental in preserving his mother's legacy, right? Please say so. If there's nothing he did, the article will probably be deleted. - Formally, you should not squeeze text betwwen an image and the infobox. I'd be interested in the drawings his mother made of him, perhaps in a gallery. - For a hook, I'd prefer something he did, not what he lost. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:35, 27 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
Gerda Arendt Hi, since you're right and I've not found sources in the German Wiki to verify the interesting facts of his life, I myself have put this up for deletion. Sorry IF I caused a mess. CoryGlee (talk) 11:00, 27 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
