Note: this represents where the article stands relative to the Good Article criteria. Criteria marked are unassessed

Article only hints at her journalistic career, apparently failing broadness (it is very short overall). Translation is not acknowledged properly using {{Translated page}} or something. Prose quality is lacking, Lead section is too short. Not sure whether recent Poland debate would need to be covered.

The article needs substantial work. I was considering immediately failing this, but I will put this on hold for a week in case you can fix it up. —Kusma (talk) 18:12, 20 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No replies in over a week, article needs work, failing. The article can be renominated once the issues are fixed. —Kusma (talk) 16:30, 29 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Section by section review[edit]

This does not actually seem to be a good article. The following is a (not complete) selection of issues. The whole article needs copyediting by a native or near-native.

  • Lead section is too short and does not provide a proper overview of the topic (MOS:INTRO). The date of birth is not mentioned in the body and does not seem to have a source.
  • Career: whole section needs copyediting (sentence structures seem to be taken from German; most sentences are too long).
  • Ideally explain with a gloss what "WDR" and "ARD" are.
  • No source given that shows she attended this secondary school.
  • Source does not mention "final" for these industrial actions.
  • For Aktuelle Stunde and Morgenmagazin, better use {{ill}} to link to the German Wikipedia. Ideally, give both the German original name and a translation.
  • Was she a "producer"? And was the work in Washington and Paris tied only to the Morgenmagazin? (Not clearly written).
  • Coming out: Kellermann had been out as transgender in her private life for a significant amount of time before when? This is the first time we hear she is transgender.
  • Kellermann has often voiced her frustrations regarding this in interviews when were these interviews?
  • Did she change her public gender identity while in the US, or just decide to do so? The sentence is also too long.
  • now listed as don't use "now" per MOS:CURRENT.
  • Awards: What is this prize? Use {{ill}} instead of direct link to dewiki and give a gloss. Link the other prizewinners that have articles.
