Werner Teske
- ... that the 1981 execution of Werner Teske was the final use of the death penalty in Germany? Source: "Werner Teske's execution on 26 June 1981 by an 'unexpected close range shot in the back of the head' was the last in the GDR" [1], [2]

- Comment: Hook improvements welcome as always. Leipzig Prison is also an accepted DYK. Please don't run them in the same set without combining the hooks (I'm happy for them to run separately but both are OK for me).
Improved to Good Article status by Kusma (talk). Self-nominated at 13:16, 6 October 2021 (UTC).
Hi Kusma, review follows; article promoted to GA on 6 October; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources (mostly in German); I didn't spot any overly close paraphrasing issues from the English language sources; hooks are interesting, mentioned in the article and check out (by Google Translate) to the sources cited; a QPQ has been carried out. Looks fine to me - Dumelow (talk) 15:28, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
