Self-published material
Hi John - sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but take a look at WP:VERIFY, a core policy here. It is extremely rare that we'd mention a self-published book. About the only time we'd do that is if it was a best seller or by a notable author or it was by someone who was the subject of an article. We also aren't a venue for new research, our articles are meant to reflect what we call 'reliable sources', see WP:RS. Dougweller (talk) 14:23, 20 May 2015 (UTC)
