	:{{u\|Encyclopædius}}, Not sure the benefit of canvassing here, nor do I imagine Jimbo will chime in about a random Austrian theatre company. For my two cents, I'd say that merely asserting notability without giving evidence is not notability at all. Saying that there is probably offline coverage in another language is not very helpful. There could be offline coverage about a lot of things. Who knows, I could be notable based on offline coverage nobody has found.

This talkpage has been mentioned by a media organization:

Matthew Gault (8 December 2021). "Misplaced Pages Editors Very Mad About Jimmy Wales' NFT of a Misplaced Pages Edit". Vice Media. The trouble began when Wales posted an announcement about the auction on his user talk page—a kind of message board where users communicate directly with each other.

Hey Mr. Wales, there's a discussion on Talk:Jimmy_Wales#Newer_2024_image? about what image should be used on your Misplaced Pages entry.
