Someone should translate the German version of the entry into English. I'd do it, but with only rudimentary skill at German, this would take me a month. Just a suggestion.

[edit] Translators

Whoever keeps editing the English version of this page really to improve his or her writing skills. I went ahead and make (MADE) some grammatical changes; the page is still not pretty, but at least it doesn't sound like a first year "Inglisch" student wrote the wiki.

Future editors, if you plan to edit this page, please, please, please make sure you are a native or near-native writer. Don't just directly translate words from the German version of this wiki, or write without at least consulting someone who uses English on a regular basis.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.101.169.88 (talk • contribs) 06:24, 28 November 2004 (UTC)

Please sign and date your demands with four tildes ~~~~ so other editors are able to ask you for translation help if it becomes an issue. - WeniWidiWiki 23:44, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Oldest Regulation

This is clearly not the oldest food-purity regulation. Kashrut and many others are older. If the author meant the oldest continually enforced law, that is wrong because it is no longer legally enforced. I am removing this from the article. Superm401 | Talk 07:11, 9 January 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Slim references section

I know that among the previous references now missing is the article [German Reinheitsgebot - why it's a load of old bollocks]. I always thought it was a rather informative and appropriately colorful article. Other beer articles have healthy references, and without one this article becomes harder for a reader to verify. --Edwin Herdman 14:01, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
