This article cites references which are not included, such as "Seewald (1987)", suggesting that the text is copied from elsewhere. Some parts are certainly copied or extremely closely paraphrased: "History" largely from http://munin.uit.no/bitstream/handle/10037/10632/article.pdf?sequence=3&isAllowed=y (page 156).

Some of the "Sources" were added after the text was written, by another editor, and there are no footnotes to show how any of the sources support the text.

The topic is of very unclear notability - and it is unclear how this article relates to Psychomotor education, Psychomotor learning, and the German article Psychomotorik (which is linked to Psychomotor education as an equivalent).

The article needs to be improved, not deleted. In the German Wikipedia Psychomotorics described quite well - DrPoglum (talk) 17:39, 21 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak Delete I don't believe I can support a redirect to the German-language Wikipedia here. This may be notable in Germany, but it doesn't appear to be notable in the English-speaking world. Power~enwiki (talk) 21:18, 13 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. Not notable and not verifiable. "Seewald" is Jürgen Seewald. A Gsearch on "jürgen seewald psychomotorik" yields zero English-language hits. Articles Psychomotor education, Psychomotor learning, Psychomotor retardation (with its contentious edit history), Psychomotor agitation, etc., appear legit and unrelated. --Lockley (talk) 05:50, 15 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
