Bodmin Moor (novel)

As far as I can tell, this is just a vanity published book. Mhari 19:52, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete - non-notable book. I think Exmoor: Project Genesis should also be AfD
 * Good point. Should I add that under this? Mhari 02:38, 23 January 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete Its just a book. Not notable.--Anthony.bradbury 20:09, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Do not delete - I don't see why it should be deleted. So it's a 'non-notable book' so what? Has anybody even read it? --Bobbo Bear 17:45, 24 January 2007 (GMT)
 * Kindly refer to WP:N and WP:NOT... Addhoc 15:00, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
 * If it's non-notable then why should wikipedia have an article on it? Are you the author? Is it vanity published? --J2thawiki 18:14, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
 * The author? No. What gave you that idea? No idea if it's vanity published. Just for the record, how do we determine if a book's non-notable? --Bobbo Bear 19:32, 24 January 2007 (GMT)
 * I just thought you might be as you seem to be a single purpose account that is the main/sole editor of the two articles on books by R J Bavister. Do you have any connection to the author or publisher? This link shows the proposed policy on what makes a book notable. --J2thawiki 19:50, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Well I have read both books and I think they're pretty good, and I've met a few people who 'claim' to know the author (probably lying). I wouldn't say the books are non-notable, they're not quite Harry Potter but I think they're worth articles in Wikipedia. --Bobbo Bear 19:13, 25 January 207 (GMT)


 * Weak Keep The article isn't much better or worse than most covered in 2006 in literature. Too soon to truly establish notability but nothing to indicate its just a vanity press product. User:Dimadick
 * Er, you mean besides the fact that it's from AuthorHouse, which is described as "generally considered a vanity press"? &mdash;Mhari* 07:50, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
