Really, the book exists, but this is dubious "wikipedianism", and the stub is POV as well. Cheers Io 22:14, 19 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I wouldn't have thought this counts as POV: "This book is commonly accepted as a standard text for any student studying Old Norse". It has, in my experience, enjoyed the status of a standard textbook, and has thus, for some time, played an important role in the teaching of Old Norse in the English-speaking world; this isn't the writer of the article offering their own opinion about the book's worth. Whether that qualifies it for inclusion, I don't know. I've read that at least some of the illustrations are the work of JRR Tolkien; if we could find confirmation, might that add notability? And would it make the article less advert-like to mention other textbooks and Old Norse teaching aids which cover similar ground? Perhaps it would help if we could find some reviews worth quoting which would testify to the book's status and give some idea of how people view its merits relative to other textbooks and learning aids which now exist. Or does that run the risk of making the article itself too much like a review? Dependent Variable 02:58, 13 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
This article should hardly be there (who would care to list all the grammars in the world?) and it is also POV - it is stated without anything to support it (phrased in a different way, of course, I'm too lazy to open another tab), that this is practically the bible in the field. Vote for deletion. Cheers Io 22:19, 19 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
