Okay, we have a grand total of 13 "famous residents", and only 1 has a Wikipedia article... Either Wikipedia is very lax in its coverage of famous people, or else they're not very famous after all... Maratanos22:46, 20 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The list is copied (and even not translated) from German wikipedia article. Please believe me, German wikipedia has quite high standards; in some aspects higher than English one. I can quite understand that English wikipedia is lax in covering German politicians, artists and writers; American porn stars are much more fun for an average punk or geek who contribute to wikpedia :-). `'mikka02:19, 21 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
