The Cannibal King

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

Unnotable non-existent book that is supposedly "rumored" to exist, but no actual reliable sources confirm. Prodded twice. First prod stated "no sources" and was removed by the article creator who added a link that doesn't source anything. The second stated "WP:CBALL Wikipedia is not a repository for what might, could, or is rumored to happen" and was removed by my because of the previous prod. Was also CSDed for lack of context but found to have enough. Non-existent book fails WP:V, WP:N, and WP:CRYSTAL. -- Collectonian  (talk · contribs) 18:48, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete The CSD decline was by a nonadmin, and had its own issues, see my talkpage. Either way, per my PROD, Wikipedia is not for something that has not yet materialized.-- Terrillja  talk  19:08, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
 * The removal of the tag may have been in bad faith, but it seems totally correct. From what I can see, the article clearly established context. decltype (talk) 02:04, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Redirect per Skier Dude. Even if the author is very well-known, they can't be the only source for an article, so it shouldn't have its own article, but since it can be referenced, it's appropriate in the overall series article. - Mgm|(talk) 12:13, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete "rumored?" Really. Delete. No reliable sources. Period.Bali ultimate (talk) 23:52, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
