This article violates the basic principal that Wikipedia is not a geneaological site. I have done enough geneology to recognize the work of a geneologist, and this article is clearly such. To make matters worse it contains original research, drawing on statements from an unpublished manuscript. Lastly there is just no clear claim to notability for Wuster. His son might squeak by on the grounds he was the central subject of a book published by the Pennsylvania State University Press, but Hans Caspar Wuster has no claim to notability.

Delete per nom. Completely unencyclopedic and subject is non-notable. sixtynine ^{• speak up •} 07:04, 7 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. My first question on seeing a biographical article listed for deletion is "What does/did the subject do to make themselves encyclopedic?" In this instance, I'm still asking myself that question. BigHaz - Schreit mich an 09:28, 7 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
