Talk:Play with Knives

Promotional tone
This article reads like a promo. I added the tag, and it was removed by 1.40.73.69 with the comment Changed wording, and removed advert template as I have fixed the issue. I contend the issue has not been fixed. For example, rather than:

''Play With Knives has been described as an "impressive psycho-thriller" by The Oxford Companion to Australian Literature, and as a novel that "never becomes one particular genre (rather it remains as many different genres, intactly and simultaneously)." Jennifer Maiden wrote the manuscript in the early 80s, and it was published in an abridged form by Allen & Unwin in 1990. It was translated into German by dtv Verlagsgesellschaft as Ein Messer im Haus in 1994. After being approached by online publisher Quemar Press in 2016, Jennifer Maiden collaborated with them to create a revised edition, believing the work should be available free on the internet.''

it should read more like:

Play with Knives is an novel by Australian poet Jennifer Maiden that has been published online.

As the article stands, it has not established notability of the subject, it is clearly promotional, and I would guess being written by someone with a conflict of interest. I would suggest a careful reading of the those links and some energetic editing to build an article that's worth keeping.
