The Globe Illustrated Shakespeare: The Complete Works Annotated

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-notable edition of Shakespeare. DePRODed with the comment that a merge to Howard Staunton, who is named as the editor, might be appropriate, but it seems that this is not Staunton's book but rather a recent publication that happens to use Staunton's edition (and include the commentaries and illustrations of other authors and artists who likewise did not actually produce this book). Amazon ratings do not confer notability. –Roscelese (talk &sdot; contribs) 01:47, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

 * Note that the text that has been added is just about Stanton's version of Shakespeare, not about this book - the review was published in 1864, while the book was published in 1979. –Roscelese (talk &sdot; contribs) 15:42, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Redirect: to Complete Works of Shakespeare, which seems to cover complete works of Shakespeare; annotated or not  Purpleback pack  89  ≈≈≈≈  17:37, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. Modern reprint of (and title for) an out-of-copyright edition that is probably not itself notable. Alternatively, redirect per Purplebackpack89, though the mention of this publication in Complete Works of Shakespeare was added by the author of this article and might just as well be deleted there. The link to this article in Howard Staunton should definitely be removed whatever happens, as his edition was not originally published under this title. Deor (talk) 15:31, 6 November 2011 (UTC)
