 * To be honest, I can't say I'm wholly surprised my article didn't make the cut (and I suppose there are plenty of crime-fiction wiki's I could take it to). The reason I wrote it in the first place, however, was because I saw several other Amos Walker novels (namely Angel Eyes and Sweet Women Lie) had already received stubby little pages with no more references or notes on cultural impact than my own. Might I request that they be deleted as well? I'm not doing this out of spite - in fact, I think a table with bite-sized summaries of each novel (on either Walker's article or the Loren D. Estleman article) would suit Wikipedia's purpose better, and I'd be happy to draw one up as I read my way through the series.
