I'm questioning the currency of the first AfD nomination as although my searches found links here, here, here and here, I'm not sure if this can be improved. I'm notifying John Z although it seems he's not very active but Hullaballoo Wolfowitz still is. SwisterTwister talk 06:31, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy keep. No argument presented for deletion. No attempt to refute arguments in initial AFD. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo) (talk) 15:11, 2 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete I'm finding some coverage: Venturebeat, but mostly mentions and quotes (not themselves = notability, but provide some support). The book is held in about 850 WorldCat libraries, which is a moderate showing. I can't find any reviews of the book. If others can find better sources, I'll re-think.
