[edit] Treason in the Flatlands

Treason in the Flatlands (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

A one-sentence article on a self-published book (complete with amazon.com link). Fails WP:BK. Victoriagirl 00:54, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete Not Notable. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 00:57, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Non notable: fails WP:BK. On top of that, the article has zero content which, considering that this is a self-published work, is almost bordering on WP:SPAM. -- Seed 2.0 01:08, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per my nomination and Seed's comments. Victoriagirl 01:13, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Hedging on a SPeedy Delete A3 - the only content is a single sentence saying the title, who it's by, and the year of publication, and there's a link of where on Amazon you can purchase it - to me, that's pretty much a content-free article. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 01:22, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete Per above. Daniel 5127 02:23, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy Delete per A3. DarkAudit 03:37, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Speedy delete as spam... or snail-delete it you have to, just make sure it's deleted. DreamGuy 08:49, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
And, frankly, anything with publisher listed by one of the more notorious vanity press outfits, like AuthorHouse, LuLu, iUniverse, etc. should be presumed as speedy deletable without twice as many references proving notability than for normal books. Paying some outfit to print your stuff is an admission that it's not notable enough to find even a small press willing to publish it. DreamGuy 09:49, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, nn self-published book. Lankiveil 10:41, 13 May 2007 (UTC).
