The Edge of Legend: An Incredible Story of Faith and Basketball

Fails WP:NBOOK and WP:GNG. The creator is also most likely the book's publisher (User:PortCityPublishing) and so it was a promotional scheme to begin with. Jrcla2 (talk) 20:01, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete. Not notable.  The edits to the article since its obvious-advertising inception have been just paring out the ad copy...leaving nothing.  Regarding it being promotional, also notice Special:Contributions/65.184.217.195, and that neither that IP nor User:PortCityPublishing have edited since around when the article was created - I gave both users a welcomespam template.  I hadn't noticed this article but did see its material in Barton College instead.  --  stillnotelf   is invisible  23:07, 27 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - There is this article which is about the book. It's mentioned in this article which is behind a pay wall, but the excerpt "Joyner Library provides great supplemental reading about North Carolina team favorites including a new book by Brandon Sneed titledThe Edge of Legend ..." indicates that the coverage is insubstantial.  Fails to meet the inclusion guidelines in WP:GNG, and WP:NBOOK. -- Whpq (talk) 17:37, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
