Article provides no clues of notability. Google test only delivers 923 hits in all languages. German WP has no article about him. Night of the Big Wind (talk) 18:52, 3 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete English Wikipedia is not intended to be a mirror of German Wikipedia, so presence or absence of an article there is largely irrelevant in an AFD. Please do not even bring up basic Google hits, since the number of such hits is also irrelevant in AFD discussions. Google book search is a better guide than Google search. It only shows one mention [1], not sufficient to satisfy WP:BIO. Google News archive had no hits for '"August Hain" communist'. The name comes up twice in Google scholar, (a third hit is spurious, the juxtaposition of the two names as part of two other names) but without a snippet, or in French, so no clue if the hits are relevant.Edison (talk) 00:55, 4 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete The article does not even claim notability, much less demonstrate it. --MelanieN (talk) 22:05, 9 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
