Contested PROD, for no stated reason. Rationale was "Farcical longevity claim, very little sourcing, and almost entirely consists of utterly mundane details. Having one painting supposedly depicting the subject isn't close to the threshold of notability." The German article isn't much better, and most of the article is completely irrelevant noise; who cares if a guy made wooden boxes?

• Keep Sources check out and are actually quite cautious about claims of his old age. One of the sources [1] goes into quite a bit of detail about the involvement of Maximilian I Joseph of Bavaria it the care of Adner. The king sent a doctor and insisted on daily reports of Adler's condition. After his Adner's death, the king paid for his funeral. Somebody obviously cared a great deal about a guy who made wooden boxes. Vexations (talk) 12:18, 17 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep I am seeing lots and lots of what appear to be non-trivial mentions in a Google Books search.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 19:37, 17 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - Whether or not he makes boxes is not the issue; it is whether he is notable for what he accomplished. There is enough sources out there WP:NEXIST and there are. Netherzone (talk) 19:20, 22 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  And where are these sources? The ones in the article sure are rather... sparse. The Blade of the Northern Lights (話して下さい) 02:17, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

A 5-minute search yielded these; there are additional ones as well. [2],[3],[4],[5],[6],[7],[8],[9],[10],[11],[12] Netherzone (talk) 14:26, 23 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
