article should be deleted
editIt seems to me this article should be deleted, per WP:NB. Would there be any reason why I should not nominate it for deletion? Qqqqqq 01:42, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, per AfD protocols articles should be improved through regular editing before any deletion process is undertaken. Benjiboi 09:58, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- Eh, no one was paying this article any attention before. The improvements in the past day or two wouldn't have happened otherwise. Qqqqqq 14:13, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- Disagree. WP has thousands of articles that need improving and abusing the AfD process, to me, is one of the worse ways to bring enlightened and inspired editing to an article that needs attention. In the end I hope future editors will be able to cobble together some of what I did to make it into a decent article but my goal was to keep it from getting deleted and I hope I accomplished at least that.

- I actually thought the article should have been deleted when I nominated it. I meant that that it was improved instead was a good consequence. Qqqqqq 15:46, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
- Agreed. On WP I'm definitely more in the creationist camp vs. the deletionist side of things. If you see me calling for deletion there is something mighty wrong indeed! Benjiboi 15:51, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

Notability concerns
editWhile I'm sure that this is a thoughtful and useful book, it doesn't appear to me to satisfy the notability guidelines for articles about books. My personal feeling is that I would like to see it kept, but I'm having a hard time seeing how it qualifies as a notable book, and furthermore it does have a bit of a promotional tone. I wanted to post here to invite discussion before going elsewhere. -- [ UseTheCommandLine ~/talk ] #_ 20:59, 23 February 2013 (UTC)
