yes, samuel, add more and move back. just compare belinda kanda:
* on wp:en:drafts, wrong and unsourced
* on wp:de : https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belinda_Kanda , properly
sourced, at least some useful info

same for shaila okai:
* wp:de, properly sourced: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sheila_Okai

i agree that the draft move and breaking the link to the german wikipedia
is not really helping the case here. a tag "translate from german" would
have been the better option. maybe we could dump this on the bot authors to
improve?

(including wikimedia-gh as we talk about ghana football players)
