[edit] Trapped by History(book)

Looks more like someone's book report than a Wikipedia article; no references and no assertion of notability. KurtRaschke (talk) 19:58, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Speedy Delete: Speedy Delete under CSDG1 or G11 . Rgoodermote  20:18, 26 May 2008 (UTC): Upon reading other comments I have changed my stance. Still speedy delete but only to close this AfD. As the article in question has not declared it's notability. It is basically a summary from the back of a book. Rgoodermote  20:12, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete Doesn't qualify for either. It's not nonsense and it's not really advertising. But there should be no problems about closing this early; it's not an encyclopedic topic. PeterSymonds (talk) 22:14, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete Not just a book report, but one of those book reports where a kid reads a summary straight off of the back cover. Mandsford (talk) 22:55, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete This article doesn't merit a spot on Wikipedia. Artene50 (talk) 06:09, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

  • Comment from User:213.7.29.248 moved from article's talkpage: I believe this article should not be deleted but someone with experience handling wikipedia articles should help whoever wrote this article to better it and the only thing in my opinion that should be deleted is the link to the website. This is a free encyclopedia and i believe someday that book could play a very important part in the world of literature and an article should be made for it.
