- Keep Despite failing our notoriety requirement, this individual meets WP:AUTHOR as demonstrated from the reviews linked in the article's current version. Holdings for those two books are also significant; according to Worldcat, over 500 libraries for Revolt of the Hereros [1] and End of the holocaust [2]. RayTalk 19:58, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Well, I will quibble with you that Worldcat does not list over 500 for either, but it does list over 400 for each. In any case, your point is well taken. It certainly meets the requirement of at least a dozen libraries as detailed in WP:AUTHOR. --Stlamanda (talk) 22:00, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- That is really bizarre. It lists over 500 when I'm at a university, and less when I'm at home. RayTalk 23:39, 20 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Ha! I just figured you were exaggerating! Good to know for the future.--Stlamanda (talk) 00:08, 21 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep: I think he is notable as the author of the seminal The revolt of the Hereros and I have added refs of multiple independent reviews of this to the article that indicate this. Incidentally, though this need not help with this Afd, we also use his work in our article: Herero_and_Namaqua_Genocide. (Msrasnw (talk) 12:38, 23 February 2013 (UTC))[reply]
