[edit] The Poor Man's James Bond

Delete as non-notable book. It dosen't seem to be very notable, but I'm not very sure either. Inform me if I'm wrong. SYCTHOS^talk 01:12, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

• Keep. See here at Amazon. Seven books cite the book and there are ten customer reviews. Seems notable enought o me. Batmanand 01:15, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

• Speedy keep If it's notable enough for the feds to bring it up at your trial, it's notable enough for Wikipedia. Adrian Lamo · (talk) · (mail) · 07:28, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment: This is not a speedy keep. A speedy keep requires the nominator to withdraw or the nomination to be in bad faith, which has not happened. Stifle 15:38, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

• Comment: Almost all of those 10 reviews are probably by the author or the publisher's minions - they're too obviously enthusiastic. Even if they were real, 10 reviews is not much for a book that's existed for 15 years. Sales rank of #466,647 similarly unimpressive. Does this book meet the 5,000 readers mark? —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-02-01 14:52Z
• Keep - I know see that there have been 12 editions of the book. —Quarl ^(talk) 2006-02-01 14:55Z
• Keep - not only notable, but notorious. -- Jamiem
