Well on en it is generaly accepted that we have a copyright problem. On de less so. Although they don't have fair use issues (in theory) there are certianly other problems.
On en we have a large number of people who go around lableing stubs. de just seems to accept large numbers of rather short articles (incerdenitaly does anyone know why http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marla_Glenn isn't just a redirect?)
Also I'm not seing references even for fairly major articles such as:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Beatles
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodstock-Festival (a featured article)
