Talk:How to Rule Your Own Country: The Weird and Wonderful World of Micronations

Context and publication section
IMO I do not see it as puffery and the editors at GAR had no concerns with this section. Could you elaborate why you think it is not necessary?  ツ LunaEatsTuna  (💬)— 20:42, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Who needs to know, for example, about the internal editing and the cover design? Not even a book review would be likely to have had that. Errantios (talk) 21:25, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Just passing by, as the back and forth caused a no-target error (Category:Harv and Sfn no-target errors). I have to agree with Errantios, something like this How to Rule Your Own Country is 320 pages in length and has nine chapters as well as an afterword, acknowledgments and a full index is just fluff. -- LCU ActivelyDisinterested «@» °∆t° 14:11, 26 November 2023 (UTC)


 * Maybe those can be removed, but the book's release date, publisher, background on Hobbs and Williams' education and prior book as well as the final sentence are definitely noteworthy (and usually mentioned by reviews); no need to remove the entire section. Additionally, these facts would then otherwise only be mentioned in the lead and not in the body, which is disallowed on Wikipedia since the lead should be a summary of an article.  ツ LunaEatsTuna  (💬)— 16:02, 26 November 2023 (UTC)
 * Also, looking at some FAs about books, noting the page number seems to be the standard.  ツ LunaEatsTuna  (💬)— 18:36, 26 November 2023 (UTC)
