Begin Chess

 * – ( View AfD View log )

This chess book does not seem notable enough to be worth its own article. It can be merged in List of chess books instead. SyG (talk) 11:10, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment. I've already added it to List of chess books.  Rcsprinter  (chatter)  11:49, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - Non notable book. Most sources are Book Sellers, one or two reviews are from chess magazines don't assert it as notable. Also seems to be a bit of puffery going on. Stuart.Jamieson (talk) 13:17, 28 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete The book is by a notable author, but I don't think this book is notable. Its Amazon sales rank is No. 6,000,000+, so I don't think it is a big seller.  Bubba73 You talkin' to me? 01:24, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. No evidence is present of the book meeting the criteria of the WP:BK guideline. Although the author is notable, notability is not inherited, especially not "downwards" (that is, from a "general" subject (an author) to more specific subjects (individual books)).
