[edit] Irene's Puddle and K. S. Willcox

Advert / vanity articles about a non-notable book not yet / only just published and its author. -- RHaworth 01:49, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

• Strong delete "Irene's Puddle"? Four Google hits, all from the book's web site. "K. S. Willcox"? Three hits. "Kim Smith-Willcox"? Zero. -- Kicking222 01:59, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
• Weak Keep This IS a published book, albeit a relatively unknown one. However, I would leave it up, but that's more of a personal opinion then an interpretation of policy. --Mysmartmouth 02:55, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete Amazon has never heard of this author, and they sell self-published material. Arbusto 03:14, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete per nom.--Peta 05:31, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
• Delete looks totally nn at this point in time Marcus22 20:38, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

• Delete I posted both of these articles regarding a book that has just been sent to press. I can wait to post them again once distribution has occurred. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jefficator (talk • contribs) [author of the articles]

You should wait longer than that: you should wait until the book and its author have actually become notable. And the best way to establish their notability is to wait until someone else writes about them. -- RHaworth 09:01, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
