Deletion of Heinrich Thoma (general)

Comment: to List of Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross recipients (T): does not meet . The often-mentioned  is a project-specific essay, not a notability guideline / SNG. Most of the "keep" ivotes are thus not policy-based. The sources offered above -- http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Personenregister/T/ThomaHeinrich.htm and http://wwiihistorycenter.org/research_database/germany/germanmilitarypersonnelt.html are non-RS and, at best, represent a rendition of some primary source. In the absence of significant coverage, a redirect to a list article where the subject is mentioned is the best approach
