[edit] America Is in the Heart

• Keep or merge. Amazon shows this book cited in 51 others, so it should have a place on Wikipedia somewhere. Kevin 01:18, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep if expanded merge if not American Patriot 1776 01:25, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep but only if expanded, per Kevin M1ss1ontomars2k4 | T | C | @ 02:24, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
• Merge; if kept it should be moved to "America is in the Heart". Bucketsofg✐ 02:59, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
• Merge per nom. Funnybunny (^talk/_QRVS) 04:24, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
• KEEP as it is a very notable book for American Ethnic studies courses in many universities. Peoplestruth 05:41, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep It needs to be expanded, though. Most books on Wikipedia are listed separate from their authors.--Dakart 05:50, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
• Merge per nom. Rockpocket (talk) 07:37, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep per Book notability guidelines, suggesting that any book with an ISBN (which this has) and that is available in multiple libraries (which I haven't checked, but it is available on Amazon), is notable enough to have an article. This book has an entry on Amazon, it has somewhere in the region of 31,100 relevant google hits, and its author has a large amount of relevant results (around 45,000/50,000).

• Keep, not a vanity release, popular book. --badlydrawnjeff (WP:MEMES?) 11:28, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
• Either expand or merge.--Jusjih 13:41, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep and expand. --Doug (talk) 16:36, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

• Keep since notability is not a policy when reguarding books. ---J.S (t|c) 16:45, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. leave for expansion.--Kungfu Adam ^(talk) 20:49, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
• Merge per nom. ⇒ SWATJester ^Ready Aim _Fire! 22:51, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
• Keep – and expand, obviously. Possibly merge if not, though I'd keep it separate – Gurch 12:05, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
