The result was G10  The article is unsourced, alleges that an author was a failure. Removing that content leaves an unreasonably short (A1) article, hence it goes. No prejudice against recreating a sourced and non-negative article, which can then be assessed upon its merits. Jclemens (talk) 16:12, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

Livin' Like It's 1987

Contested prod. Reason was that this book does not assert notability. In fact, with the claim that it didn't sell well, it pretty much explicitly disclaims notability. The Wordsmith Communicate 02:32, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete, I can't find proof that this book even exists; my searching certainly hasn't turned up anything that could possibly support notability.  Glenfarclas   ( talk ) 03:59, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete This is an example of "damning with faint praise". The sentence "The book did not sell well at all and today is off the market. Scott Walsh himself bought all of the remaining copies" pretty well sums up the reasons why this is not notable.  To Scott Walsh, I salute you for going after the dream, that most of us have, of publishing a book.  Mandsford (talk) 13:29, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
