Notability and reliable sources
Hi. I saw that you were commenting on the Articles for Deletion discussion about Ewald series. In order for a book to be considered notable and therefore worthy of inclusion, it must satisfy one or more of the following criteria:
 * 1) The book has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial published works whose sources are independent of the book itself. This includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, other books, television documentaries and reviews. Some of these works should contain sufficient critical commentary to allow the article to grow past a simple plot summary. This excludes media re-prints of press releases, flap copy, or other publications where the author, its publisher, agent, or other self-interested parties advertise or speak about the book.
 * 2) The book has won a major literary award.
 * 3) The book has been considered by reliable sources to have made a significant contribution to a significant motion picture, or other art form, or event or political or religious movement.
 * 4) The book is the subject of instruction at multiple elementary schools, secondary schools, colleges/universities or post-graduate programs in any particular country.[5]
 * 5) The book's author is so historically significant that any of his or her written works may be considered notable. This does not simply mean that the book's author is him/herself notable by Wikipedia's standards; rather, the book's author is of exceptional significance and the author's life and body of written work would be a common subject of academic study.

Unfortunately, Facebook pages, blogs and other sites composed of user-generated content are considered self-published sources and are therefore not considered reliable. Official websites of the book, author and/or publisher are considered primary sources, and not sufficient to establish the book's notability. What is required are third-party sources that are independent of the subject. --Drm310 (talk) 15:28, 1 April 2013 (UTC)
