German edit

  A user suggests that this German entry be cleaned up, giving the reason: “if only used in compounds, then there is no inflection (like "Überschalles, Überschalls"); but de.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%9Cberschall -> de.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%9Cberschallgeschwindigkeit mentioning it as "Überschallgeschwindigkeit, kurz (der) Überschall" and examples at www.dwds.de/wb/%C3%9Cberschall show it outside of compounds.”
Please see the discussion on Requests for cleanup(+) for more information and remove this template after the problem has been dealt with.
