Is this a notable book? Nothing in the article indicated that it is. Delete. --Nlu (talk) 16:03, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Delete willing to change my nomination if anyone can find how it fits into Book notibility guidelines, but I was unable to find anything.Coffeepusher (talk) 16:10, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete per number one. Kimu 16:22, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

  • Comment -- well, it's not hopeless; it does meet the threshold standards of wikipedia:Notability (books) -- it's cataloged at the British Library and is held by 38 libraries according to WorldCat. However, it seems like a not-particularly widely known work, probably not too notable by most standards. I haven't gone looking for reviews yet. Confusingly, there's a novel also called Pot of Gold by Judith Michael which is much better known. At the very least, the "reader review" section belongs on Amazon, not here. -- phoebe/(talk) 06:43, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete. Phoebe makes valid points for inclusion but without the OR 'reader review' section, the article is two non-notable lines. wp:snow seems to have the answer here. Mystache (talk) 18:56, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
