Tales from beneath your mom

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Non notable book about a notable band. There is no reason to have an article on every book about every band. There is nothing about this book that is significant. No assertion of notability. Nouse4aname (talk) 14:46, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm surprised by the combination of two things: first, that one of its members would call himself or be marketed as "HiMyNameIsMark" (see this); and secondly that this article (as well as the repeatedly deleted article on the vaporware sequel to this book) is created by "Himynameismark". Could the two be related? If so, might there be a certain "CoI"? This wouldn't be what I'd expect from one third of a "notable band" (it would seem rather sad). Possible CoI aside, yes, as Nouse4aname says, there's no sign of notability here; delete. -- Hoary (talk) 16:12, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I do not think this is written by Hoppus. In previous versions of the article for the second book, User:Himynameismark states that the book is written by a fan (ie, him/her self). Just a fan who wants a bit of publicity it seems! Nouse4aname (talk) 08:51, 16 August 2008 (UTC)

 * Strong Delete. Another non-notable book that violates the WP:BOOK notability guidelines on every level. J Readings (talk) 21:13, 15 August 2008 (UTC)
 * This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 14:02, 25 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Delete Not a hoax or fan-penned book (it was written by Hoppus's sister). That does not, however, make the book notable. — Hello, Control Hello, Tony  18:18, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
