I had to do a lot of editing to get this article's prose up to the standards. As a German speaker myself, I had a look at the  original article and found that there were a few minor errors with the translation. Furthermore, the translation was very unidiomatic. It is important to realise that the two langauges have very different styles and one must be adapted to the other to make it readable.
Here are a few issues that would have to be improved to go beyond the GA level:
1. In-line refs or footnotes need to be added.
2. More sources are needed. With only one source it isn't so clear if original research has been done or not
3. Coverage needs to be broader. The article is quite short and only has two sections. 
All in all though it's not a bad article. I just hope that ref has all that information in it! Djlayton4 | talk  |  contribs 12:40, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

message: The internet inline citations used in this article are improperly formatted. Internet citations require at the very least information on the  title, publisher and last access date of any webpages used. If the source is a news article then the date of publication and the author are also important. This information is useful because it allows a reader to a) rapidly identify a source's origin b) ascertain the reliability of that source and c) find other copies of the source should the website that hosts it become unavaliable for any reason. It may also in some circumstances aid in determining the existance or status of potential copyright infringments. Finally, it looks much tidier, making the article appear more professional. There are various ways in which this information can be represented in the citation, listed at length at Wikipedia:Citing sources. The simplest way of doing this is in the following format:
 
As an example:
* 
which looks like:
*
If any information is unknown then simply omit it, but title, publisher and last access dates are always required. I strongly recommend that all internet inline references in this article be formatted properly. If you have any further questions please contact me and as mentioned above, more information on this issue can be found at Wikipedia:Citing sources.
