Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Joachim Weickert
I withdraw the request for deletion,''' in light of the corrections of the copyvios. Some general responses to statements above: Plagiarism and copyright violations cannot be ignored just because the subject of an article is notable. The policy  calls for blanking the copyvio, and deleting the article if the result is unreadable. It is unreasonable to demand that an editor doing new page patrol  who finds such a stub must find references and translate them from German, and rewrite each such article, and even more unreasonable to demand that the new page patroller write to the copyright holder and obtain CC licensing. This one was not "new." It had remained in an unacceptable state for 5 days,  with the creator removing any tags placed on it for copyvio and for BLP violations)Such a demand shows a lack of awareness of how fast a plagiarist can create new copy/paste stubs, and how many such editors are busy in any given week.  If there were 60 hours in a day, perhaps I could rewrite all the new articles such as this which are copyvio stubs. AFD is indeed not the best venue for dealing with similar problems.  mentions alternatives, such as blanking the copyvio and posting it on the noticeboard  for copyright violations. Thanks to those who edited the article
