Literacy and Learning

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Doesn't appear to meet WP:NBOOKS. Article is completely a summary of the content of the book (and a very long one -- more than 40,000 characters). Uses references only from the book. User:Dannyparker0206 has edited only this article. Mikeblas (talk) 16:00, 15 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete unless we can find substantive academic reviews. The book appears well used in academic work, but not sure about it as notable in and of itself, Sadads (talk) 19:13, 15 December 2014 (UTC)

 * Redirect to author's page. I initially found one source right off the bat and was optimistic enough to stubbify the article and add it, but I can't really find anything that is specifically about this book. The individual essays do appear to be fairly notable since they are frequently used in various classrooms, academic papers, and the like, but I can't see anything that specifically mentions the book and the book isn't automatically notable because it collects notable works, so a redirect is best in this case.

 * Delete: per NBOOKS. I think the article name is too general to be made into a redirect, unless it were to be 'Literacy and Learning (book)'. The title of the AFD attracted my attention because I thought it might be related to Literacy. Vrac (talk) 21:34, 20 December 2014 (UTC)
