Merge into List of Selby books. Comment whatever the outcome, it should be the same for List of Selby places and Template:Selby. i.e. either it all gets merged into List of Selby books, or it stays as a 3 separate articles and a Template. I prefer the former, to avoid duplication and fluff. Duncan Ball is a notable children's author so I don't think the material should be deleted. Adpete (talk) 02:17, 15 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Further comment - a lot of the article should probably deleted anyway because it's unreferenced (though at least one potential reference exists: [1]). But even if we could reference it all, I still think one "Selby" article is what we need. Adpete (talk) 04:04, 15 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment, thanks for editor comments, agree that author is notable but not sure about merging to List of Selby books (LOSB) as it may not be notable either - it does not have any references (I've done a brief search, and have not found any refs discussing the books as a whole.) The majority of the author article is a list of his works, I was thinking of suggesting that info from LOSB be merged there after this afd is done.
