The copy right infringement is illegitimate due to the fact that the author of both the blog and the wikipedia page are the same RachelLee04 (talk) 16:18, 2 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Delete or Merge into Dime novel. Fails GNG, one source given of questionable reliability and which this subject is only a small part of (seems to say primarily that this exists, not that it's significant). --— Rhododendrites ^talk | 20:47, 2 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - If kept, this looks like it'll have to be moved to Motor Stories as the name of a series. --— Rhododendrites ^talk | 20:47, 2 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Userify so the editor can improve this away from main space. They have obviously been trying to create an article that meets WP policies, but they need some space to provide reliable sources. This might, however, be difficult. dime novels that didn't generate derivatives in other media are almost by definition non-notable. There isn't really room in the current Dime novels article for this depth of coverage on one series. An article on major series of dime novels that includes this series along with some others may be a good idea. --Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 17:05, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
