Last discussion withdrawn for no reason. Not sure if notable. From what German I can read, the only hits on Gnews are passing mentions. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 21:54, 20 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep Possibly the nom. of the second AfD read the first AfD. The arguments there, which indicated a remarkably high number of good sources, still hold. Sufficient apparent secondary coverage. The German WP has in general a considerably stricter requirement for notability than we do, and I would normally defer to them on German topics. I don't see that it has ever been even challenged there.  DGG ( talk ) 22:38, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep and speedy close per DGG's sound arguments. And it is barely the work of a moment to discover, via Google translate, that the nominator's assertion that the GNews hits are only "passing mentions" is completely unfounded and utter nonsense.

 * So are you going to add the sources, or just let it stink up the joint forever?! Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 06:20, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
