Always the Black Knight

Nothing but a plot summary, and I can't find any third-party treatment in reliable sources on which a proper article could be based—there are only 40 discrete Google hits and zero hits on Google Books or Scholar (always a bad sign). This fails WP:N. Deor (talk) 01:43, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Redirect  to the article on the author. That this was almost entirely plot summary could have been handled by editing, but nothing I can find indicates that the work is of great importance; only 24 WorldCat libraries hold it, and I see no signifiant reviews. Her Westerns are much more significant than her SF, and an article could probably be written on some of them.  DGG (talk) 03:03, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

As you note, this is an obscure book, about which nothing much more could be said without venturing into "original research" territory. I regret that it never occurred to me that a summary of a major-publisher issue by an author apparently deemed notable would be worth nothing itself. Wikipedia will undoubtedly be (however slightly) enriched by this article's absence. Senix (talk) 10:52, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
