The articles was added by user Rapportroyal two months after adding a number of borderline citations.

The publisher is listed as "Montréal : Kozma Petrovitch Prutkov" -- which appears to be a bogus or self-published publisher. You can search for the book here: [1]

Note, it's possible that citations to this book should also be removed from Wikipedia.

While I am sure the author is sincere, this book appears to fail notability tests. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wxidea (talk • contribs) 06:38, July 9, 2011

Delete. I can't find any references to establish notability. No library other than Library and Archives Canada (formerly the National Library of Canada) seems to have a copy. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 18:18, 9 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete non-notable, per nom. —Disavian (^talk/_contribs) 00:49, 10 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Disavian, I've seen "per nom" written various places in Wikipedia discussions. What does it mean? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wxidea (talk • contribs) 03:59, 10 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

per nom = for the same reasons as those cited by the nominator Eastmain (talk • contribs) 05:30, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

AH, "nom"="nominator"... thanks. Wxidea (talk) 13:27, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete I am undable to find independent reliable sources that would indicate notability. Considering this work is not referenced at all on Gbooks & Gscholar, it does not appear to be a relaible source and I suggest removing it from articles where it is used to cite things.

- Comment. Being absent from Gbooks and Gscholar could just indicate that it is a very recent publication. The publisher's name, Kozma Petrovitch Prutkov, makes me very suspicious, though. See also this article's talk page. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 05:30, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
