 * Keep Notable book by notable author, consistantly in print for 120 years. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  15:46, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Note, the nomination was as a content fork rather than notability. So the need to split this information off from the main article should be at issue.—Ash (talk) 15:52, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
 * The general practice on Wikipedia is for seperate articles on notable creative works and their creators, which is especially so if the creator is otherwise notable for other things, as is clearly the case here. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  16:43, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
