Pick-Up Sticks (novel)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

No extensive coverage in independent nor reliable sources, therefore non-notable. Fails WP:NBOOK. This comes from a declined AfC submission and subsequent move to mainspace, hence is non-conformant to the AfC process. There it should remain until the editor's made appropriate changes and a reviewer takes another look. FoCuSandLeArN (talk) 01:34, 29 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep Passes WP:NBOOK via criterion two of BKCRIT. Plot summary and character summary list should be largely reduced, though. I have placed the appropriate maintenance tag accordingly. Sulfurboy (talk) 08:49, 29 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Weak keep and prune plot, per Sulfurboy. If this has indeed won critical acclaim and the Governor General's Award, then it passes notability. However it needs sourcing to demonstrate this.
 * No opposition from me to moving it back into AfC space, but I don't see a pressing need for it either. Andy Dingley (talk) 09:32, 29 October 2013 (UTC)


 * Keep I added 2 more references to reviews, and references for the Governor's General award. Appears to be widely reviewed, and has received a significant award. --Colapeninsula (talk) 14:24, 29 October 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep per NBOOK multiple book reviews. Big award winning books usually get lots of reviews. -- Green Cardamom (talk) 03:59, 30 October 2013 (UTC)
