[edit] Response to email

Hi Michael,

I read the www.mkpress.com/flat page as being fairly promotional. It lists first an amazon review (that is not in itself notable as far as I can tell), the table of contents (not exactly encyclopedic) and then links to other reviews and commentaries (which I believe are better listed in the Wikipedia article directly if they are appropriate). Did I miss some other content or do we differ on whether or not this is appropriate?

If I missed something could you let me know what? If we differ on whether this content is appropriate for an external link we should take the discussion to the article talk page where other editors can add their thoughts and we can develop a consensus.

I didn't mean to remove the whole book. Sorry about that. I'll add it back. -- Siobhan Hansa 18:14, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
