Sam Hawkins

This children's book series fails WP:BK. No independent sources about the book have been given, none added since February, and Google returns mainly book seller sites. PROD was contested with request to list the article on AfD. -- Sent here as part of the Notability wikiproject. --B. Wolterding 10:31, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak keep Seems to have been a series with a fair amount of notability in the UK at least. I found a School Library Journal review on LexisNexis as well.  Note that there is also a prolific cross-stich author by the name Sam Hawkins, and if kept this might need to become a disambig. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  14:09, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep and rename to Sam Hawkins, Pirate Detective, the actual name of the series. I've found some external references and added them to the article.  As a book series published by a major publisher (Macmillan), I believe it meets our notability guidelines. NawlinWiki 21:35, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
