I can't find any reliable sources that show notability. Fails WP:BK. Schuy m 1 ( talk ) 00:07, 7 January 2009 (UTC)

Question: It has been here since 2005... Why wouldn't of this been deleted earlier?  K50   Dude   ROCKS!   00:20, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Because no one bothered to or thought that it was notable. Just because it existed since 2005 doesn't mean that it is notable. Schuy m 1  ( talk ) 00:23, 7 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Weak keep The author appears very highly notable, and from the material in his article in would appear this book is also. Needs expansion, with reviews and the like. Many of the older articles of science fiction were written here essentially on the basis of personal knowledge, and now need upgrading. DGG (talk) 04:48, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge to Elite (computer game). The inclusion of a sci-fi novella with a video game is a fascinating quirk of the early PC video game era. This content fits perfectly well as a section of the main Elite article. &mdash;Noah
 * Strong keep. I've just added a reference that shows that this was the first time a novella was distributed with a computer game, which surely makes this a notable work of fiction.  JulesH (talk) 09:35, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
