Non-notable novels based on a video game franchise. I had initially suggested that the articles be merged into the Might and Magic franchise article, which is short anyway, but this was opposed on the basis that WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS and that the articles were not yet in danger of being deleted (but now, here we are). Of course I am still open to the idea of merging, but these novels do not carry any notability of their own and cannot meet encyclopedic standards for articles.

- Delete Well, we have notability guidelines for books (though not at WP:BOOK, but rather WP:Notability (books)). And guess what? These don't even come close. gnfnrf (talk) 02:36, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete I think WP:BK pretty much sums it up, it doesn't pass any of the criteria of notability. Boccobrock•T 04:16, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. Novel written by Geary Gravel, published by Del Rey Books, as a licensed adaptation of Might and Magic. That's three aspects of notability. DS (talk) 16:30, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Those are three aspects of trivia. It doesn't matter who wrote, published, or licensed it if it isn't notable, and none of these things define notability. Ham Pastrami (talk) 10:14, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I wanted to say keep, as books from a mojor publisher seem notable to me. But policy disagrees, hence delete.Yobmod (talk) 14:33, 30 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
