Imanuel Geiss
His entry in the German National Library lists "Geiß" as a possible spelling, but only cites as its 2 sources: 1: (probably) the Library of Congress ("LCAuth"), which does not contain a reference to "Imanuel Geiß" (https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n50018263.html) and 2: the German-language Wikipedia, which in turn does not cite a source. Also, there is no book in the German National Library catalogue (https://portal.dnb.de/opac.htm?method=showOptions#top) spelling his name with ß.

Panchayati raj in India
Changed 1 statement in "Gram panchayat sabha" according to source cited. Deleted 1 reference. (It did not contain the information.) Deleted 1 sentence. (The information was mentioned already.) Moved paragraph about Balwant Rai Mehta Committee. (I think it should be integrated into the text about the succession of events, because the foundation of this committee is part of them.) Moved other smaller parts of text.

@79.178.85.74: In general, removing material with a source that complies with Wikipedia's guidelines should only be done for a good reason. In this case, however, there indeed seems to have been a problem, as an IP with an apparently disruptive history added a fact that now appeared to be sourced when it probably is not found in that source (https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Robert_Koch&diff=prev&oldid=958427379).

Suzanne and Valentine Verne appear not to have made contributions that would imply relevance for an encyclopedia article, see also
WP:INVALIDBIO, but of course I may be wrong. In this case, please name a
reliable source, thank you.

Robert Koch
The article says, according to source 28 (Thomas D. Brock (1988)) Koch was irreligious. Isn't being Jewish or not a question of whether or not somebody self-identifies as Jewish? I think that's why the article said he was a "Jewish-born German", rather than a "Jewish-German".

According to Google Translate "tự do tôn giáo" means "religious freedom" (Sorry, I know, machine translation is not very reliable, but this translation makes more sense to me.)

Undid latest edit by 103.3.230.162: As far as I can see, this was not a typo, and the reference cited states "Members of the genus Vibrio are facultatively anaerobic ...".

As it was before, the sentence implied that The Independent was the originator of the conspiracy theory, but it was merely citing a person who believed in that theory.
