Felice Beato 
Thanks for your message. I am delighted, that you are pleased that it got translated into German. By the way, I - naturally - checked some literature as well, although not so extensively as you obviously have. To my literature, a large encoclypedia on the history of photography, Felice Beato got naturalised as a British person in the 1860s. I probably will change the now translated text to that as I regard this encyclopedia as pretty trustfull.

Anyway, I really enjoyed translating your article, because I liked your article quite a lot  and as I can see from the George Psalmanazar International Appreciation Society I am not the only one. Right at the moment the article is in the "Review process" and hopefully attract somebody to check my sometimes not so very good spelling and german grammar (it always gets even more awfull if I translate something). And afterwards it will run for the german equivalent of the "Featured articles" - although in the german wikipedia the standards there are rather high, I am right at the moment pretty confident that we make it.
