Deletion of Gunther Holtorf

Comment: Based on its current referencing, this article passes the |General Notability Guideline. It is not a ; Gunther Holtorf also is claimed (in the BBC News article) to have made the first maps of the Jakarta metropolitan area.   Note that a list books by one "Gunther W. Holtorf", who probably is the subject of this article, can be seen https://www.google.com/search?tbo=p&tbm=bks&q=inauthor:%22Gunther+W.+Holtorf%22&source=gbs_metadata_r&cad=2 here.  These are a street map of Jakarta in  various versions, including one that is 9th edition and 176 pages, and a book about Hong Kong, in  German,  with translations into English and what may be Japanese

Comment: I did some work on this because sometimes the only way I can tell if something meet  is if I can find sources myself. I did, and a bit more than I used. There's a difference between "1E" and a voyage of decades that has received reliable coverage demonstrably over at least 2 years. There was some misinformation in the article as I found out - the guy wasn't famous in the 1980s and indeed says he deliberately avoided publicity, for instance, and he certainly didn't travel nonstop with only occasional restbreaks (according to the BBC) - but reliable sources have talked about what he's done, in depth, and who he is. Two different sources, one English and one German, indicate that he is going to be covered by Guinness, but even if he's not there's deep coverage on this man that spans several years. I don't think there's a better name than his own (especially since this is the name under which his maps have been published), but have no objections to a move and repurposing of the article if somebody wants to focus instead on the feat

Comment: per .  Originally, I would have !voted for keep because of the coverage meeting , but the deletes above naming 1E brought me back to reality.  It does seem the event is notable, more-so than the 1E individual the article is about.  An article on the event and the book is the likely alternate solution

Comment: article has been improved by others and now meets  via citations to ''Der Spiegel'', ''BBC News'' and ''The Jakarta Post'' among others (though I would really, really, appreciate it people didn't cite the ''Daily Mail'' before I've had breakfast). I appreciate there's been some rough and tumble over this but ultimately it has the potential to be improved further
