Machine translation, like DeepL or Google Translate, is a useful starting point for translations, but translators must follow the LLM translation guideline, revise errors as necessary and confirm that the translation is accurate, rather than simply copy-pasting machine-translated text into the English Wikipedia. Consider adding a topic to this template: there are already 1,852 articles in the main category, and specifying|topic= will aid in categorization. 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. A model attribution edit summary is Content in this edit is translated from the existing German Wikipedia article at [[:de:Rainer Wendt]]; see its history for attribution. You may also add the template {{Translated|de|Rainer Wendt}} to the talk page. For more guidance, see Wikipedia:Translation. |

Rainer Wendt (born 29 November 1956 in Duisburg) is a German former policeman (Schutzpolizei). Since 2007 he is the Federal Chairman of the German Police Union (DPolG). The DPolG is one of the two German police unions. Left-of-center daily tagezeitung characterized Wendt as an effective populist notorious for law and order catchphrases.

In the first 48 hours following the 2015 Paris terror attacks, Wendt gave 22 interviews.

In 2016 he published a book titled Deutschland in Gefahr ("Germany in danger"). In 2017 a TV report uncovered how Wendt had been violating the law by accepting two simultaneous salaries, and not declaring additional jobs.

In the wake of the Amberg incident of December 2018 where four drunk asylum seekers had randomly beaten up passers-by, Wendt asked the Federal government to "take a stand" on that case.

In 2019, Saxony-Anhalt's Minister of the Interior wanted to appoint Wendt as state secretary but withdrew the nomination after a public outcry.
