Machine translation, like DeepL or Google Translate, is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia.
Do not translate text that appears unreliable or low-quality. If possible, verify the text with references provided in the foreign-language article.
You must provide copyright attribution in the edit summary accompanying your translation by providing an interlanguage link to the source of your translation.

He married the actress Maj-Britt Nilsson in 1951, who appears in three Ingmar Bergman movies. She died in 2006.
He published his memoires, För öppen ridå ("In front of an open curtain" – an idiom about doing something publicly), in 1990, and a biography about his dad, Karl Gerhard – med kvickheten som vapen ("Karl Gerhard – with wits as a weapon"), in 2007.
