This is a maintenance category, used for maintenance of the Wikipedia project. It is not part of the encyclopedia and contains non-article pages, or groups articles by status rather than subject. Do not include this category in content categories. This is a tracking category. It builds and maintains a list of pages primarily for the sake of the list itself. They are not part of the encyclopedia's categorization scheme. This category is hidden on its member pages—unless the corresponding user preference (Appearance → Show hidden categories) is set. These categories can be used to track, build and organize lists of pages needing "attention en masse" (for example, pages using deprecated syntax), or that may need to be edited at someone's earliest convenience. These categories also serve to aggregate members of several lists or sub-categories into a larger, more efficient list (discriminated by classifications).

Administrators: Please do not delete this category as empty! This category may be empty occasionally or even most of the time.

Temporary maintenance category for Germany-related articles.

Articles using Template:Infobox German location

See template documentation for more information.

• Articles listed under "A" contain an unacceptable value for "Art" or "type"
• Articles listed under "C" use the infobox but do not contain geographical co-ordinates data. If the article uses a ((coord)) template (or one of its derivatives), transfer to co-ordinates to the infobox and delete the coord-template. If not, get the data from its entry on another wiki.
• Articles listed under "D" have a decimal point in the population value. This can happen if data is directly copied from the DE-wiki (the decimal point is a thousands separator in Germany).
• Articles listed under "I" are listed because they use the obsolete variable "pop_source" in the German Location Infobox. These must be changed to the "pop_ref" variable and a references section created for the article, if not done so already.
• Articles listed under "T" are not about independent municipalities/towns/cities, but do use an (incorrect) Gemeindeschlüssel.
• Articles listed under "U" are about independent municipalities/towns/cities, with a missing or incorrect Gemeindeschlüssel.
• Articles listed under "X" are using the infobox, but are missing vital information: the name of either the state or the Kreis.

Articles using Template:Infobox German district

See template documentation for more information.

• Articles listed under "S" have an incorrect value in the "state" parameter.
• Articles listed under "K" have an incorrect value in the "Kreisschlüssel" parameter.
