Per your Teahouse request

Responding to your Teahouse question: Have you carefully read through WP:Notability? That is what you should be concentrating on.

  • Reference #1 cannot be found;
  • #2 does not mention Westend;
  • #3 is here; please expand this citation, include the page number(s) that verify the content you added, and include a quotation (using param |quote=, optionally also |quote-page= and |trans-quote=);
  • #4 is helpful (but a longer article would be more helpful);
  • #5: I don't see "Nachruf auf Pietro Delugan" in the paper, I see "Kurort Meran und Burggrafenamt"; why this difference? I see all the stuff about Delugan, but where is there anything in that 1923 article that links it to the Westend? Also, the Fraktur in the normal-size print is too hard to read, you should use |quote= here also; if you can definitely link this to the Westend, this would be your second citation that might be seen as WP:SIGCOV;
  • #6 is here; please expand the citation, and add a page number, but this sounds like a passing mention and is useless for notability, so you need one more;
  • #7, 8, and 9 do not contribute to establishing notability, they are not WP:INDEPENDENT;
  • #10 has three brief paragraphs strictly about the architectural history of the building, this might be seen as subtly different than the topic of the draft, which is the Hotel, not the building architecture, although they are of course entwined.

I would say your draft is borderline, and could be declined as non-notable. Improving the citations as I suggested, and adding parameter |trans-title= to all ten of them, might increase your chances a little bit. Finding two more sources with more than three paragraphs about the hotel itself would help a lot. Mathglot (talk) 03:49, 24 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hi @Mathglot thank you for your review and guidance!
I have published several changes to the references as suggested. Here is some more information regarding the updates:
As suggested in your feedback, I have added the |trans-title= parameter, page numbers and quote to the references.
  • Reference #2: This source does mention the Westend. The previous URL directed to a internal search; I have now updated it to link directly to the search results for the Westend to ensure clarity.
  • Reference #5: The paragraph in question refers specifically to the building's architect, Pietro Delugan, which is why I cited his work. It states that he designed 54 buildings during his career. This statement can be found in the third column of the cited newspaper, in the middle section: '...insgesamt 17 Objekte auf eigene Rechnung und 54 im Auftrag errichtete Bauten'. Translation: '...a total of 17 objects on his own account and 54 buildings constructed on commission.'
  • Reference #6: I have updated this with a specific quote. You can find the mention by searching for "Westend" within the Google Books preview here on pag. 133.
  • References #8 and #9: These have been updated with new, more relevant sources. Do you think it's ok now?

Coordinates

The given coordinates of 46.668994630242295°N 11.151386228206722°E is extremely over-determined. The 7th decimal already locates to the nearest inch. The value above is in tenths of a nanometer. That is about the width of a hydrogen atom. Mathglot (talk) 05:36, 24 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

@Mathglot Thank you! I have updated the coordinates. I hope they are correct now. ~2026-28034-74 (talk) 17:13, 9 May 2026 (UTC)Reply
