The Guardians' Bane

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Neither book nor author are notable, as a quick Google search verifies. The publisher isn't even notable, I'm afraid. Drmies (talk) 03:32, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
 * And yet I believe that the author's minority status in her own literary community warrents this entry be continued in both listing and development. This female, Australian author writes outside the traditionally accepted genres of her country. —Preceding unsigned comment added by IamYorr (talk • contribs) 03:55, 25 July 2010 (UTC)  — IamYorr (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Well, I can't fault you for believing that. Problem is, Wikipedia articles need reliable sources that prove notability of the subject of an article, and those can't be had on this topic. Drmies (talk) 04:08, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Does that mean a author must be dead and famous and have many review written on and around their writing to prove notability?Gemstone101 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 04:20, 25 July 2010 (UTC).  {{spa|Gemstone101}]
 * Dead, no, famous, yes. No secondary coverage, no notability--that's how an encyclopedia works. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 04:31, 25 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Fine, delete it. Coverage of my novel will occur elsewhere.Gemstone101 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 04:39, 25 July 2010 (UTC).

 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Delete I have been unable to find independent sources. No prejudice against re-creation should the subject become notable at a later date. Edward321 (talk) 02:05, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
