Micro-stub that is empty, unsourced, and making no claims of notability whatsover, by an author just nuked at AFD -- and yet, somehow, isn't a speedy candidate. Calton | Talk 18:35, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Weak Delete A Google search returns over 2 million hits, but most of the few I checked are book reviews, the author's website, or places like amazon.com. Unless a claim to notability can be made, and some good independent sources can be found, then delete. Mr Senseless (talk) 20:12, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Book reviews can be used to establish notability if there are enough of them (2-3) by reliable sources (say, if the book was reviewed in the New York Times, Book Review, or some other established entity). Do you have links to the book reviews? ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 01:34, 26 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete. That the book has been revised and reprinted 23 years after it was first published suggests some notability. Unfortunately, it is not a make-or-break clue, and, in the absence of other clues, I am forced to conclude that the book has no more of a valid claim of notability that its author does, and that the reprinting simply reflects the fact someone had money to lose. --Blanchardb-Me•MyEars•MyMouth-timed 21:16, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. no evidence of notability presented. --Fredrick day (talk) 17:45, 25 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
