GURPS Grimoire

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Book of gaming instructions that fails notability guidlines WP:BK or WP:FICTION, as only claim to notability is that it is "useful". Its content does not provide context or discussion of the books merit, and links to publisher, related books and inclusion of book cover do not justify the creation of a standalone article from an independent viewpoint. GURPS has an enthusiastic following, but lack of article content suggests this book does not. --Gavin Collins 09:01, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

 * Redirect to List of GURPS books to prevent recreation Percy Snoodle 11:59, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of GURPS books, where I already have merged one line of info. (But, as I already have pointed out elsewhere, notability guidelines WP:BK are not entirely relevant here, because the subject is a book of "gaming instructions", while those guidelines explicitely exclude reference works and instruction manuals) --Goochelaar 12:45, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect behold the power of redirecting. FrozenPurpleCube 14:22, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment For those interested, I've set up a discussion on Talk:List of GURPS books where we can hopefully handle this subject directly without further AFD's. FrozenPurpleCube 15:18, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect per Percy Snoodle. &mdash; RJH (talk) 16:30, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Redirect: per above. As it happens, I'm one of the co-authors, but in effect this is just Vol II of the GURPS magic system, and it's been superceded.  There likely isn't anything to be said about it beyond a sentence or two in the main article.    RGTraynor  18:58, 30 August 2007 (UTC)
