Deletion of Olaf Karthaus

Comment: I am confused as to why you consider http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Olaf_Karthaus&diff=113996392&oldid=112543807 DGG's edit a non-material edit.  More broadly, a lack of people caring to edit an article has no weight on the notability of its subject.  As regards , please reread the full text of point 3.  A "textbook" is only one of the examples given, and the other is this: ''if it is widely cited by other authors in the academic literature''.  This is how those 5 works meet point 3.  I agree that the format in which the article is written is substandard, but for that there is {{tl|wikify}}.  I will attempt to address some of the points you've raised, but I will not read the 365 works that cite these 5 articles to determine the extent to which they are about these works.  The fact of having written something that is widely cited in a literature is itself a factor

Comment: per  point 3 (also possibly 4): ''The person has published a significant and well-known academic work. An academic work may be significant or well known if, for example, it is the basis for a textbook or course, if it is itself the subject of multiple, independent works, if it is widely cited by other authors in the academic literature.''  He has co-authord ''at least'' 5 article that have been cited 365 times.  An average of 73 citations for such works and 116 citations for the first is ''very high''.  The hot springs issue is secondary and has, in any case, been minimalised in the article

Comment: He doesn't seem to meet the notability guidelines for professors at , which leaves his status as suer of onsen to be his lone remaining claim to notability
