Talk:English Electric Canberra (book)

Tone
The tone of this is not appropriate at all; it sounds like it was written either by the author, a friend of the author, or someone working at the publishing house trying to sell the book to people. Way too gushy and full of praise, friendly-sounding, and it makes subjective judgements about the topic. Perhaps one of the reviews used the term "outstanding" describing the book (although I'd still leave it out unless it said "the book was called 'outstanding' by some reviewers), but how do you justify "an 'outstanding' tribute to a remarkable aircraft". That sounds like something taken off the cover of the book; Wikipedia does not judge whether an aircraft is "remarkable" or "a true classic" or anything like that; if someone else describes it as such, you can say that "some people consider the Canberra a 'remarkable' aircraft". I'm not going to go into detail about the rest of the things wrong here; it should be obvious..45Colt 21:37, 24 December 2015 (UTC)


 * I would agree it is a promotional article but previous attempts to delete or merge with the author didnt gain a consensus, that doesnt mean it cant be nominated again or pruned to remove the hyperbole, basically it is just another book on the Canberra and not particularly notable.
