The Real Alice in Wonderland (book)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Book seems to fail the criteria in WP:NBOOK. I removed a lot of links from the article that were simply to Youtube, blogs, aggregators, etc. and what I ended up with were 2 articles in minor local papers. A Google search mostly brings up discussion topics related to Alice in Wonderland or Alice Liddell, or pieces written by the authors themselves (primary sources) and I can't really find any significant number of reliable, third-party sources covering this specific book. As far as I can tell it has also never won any major literary awards, it has not made a significant contribution to a major motion picture or other art form or religious movement, and the author herself is not uniquely significant. Finally, the article appears to have been originally created by someone with a COI, who has created a number of other abusive sockpuppets to edit war and make legal threats at Harry M. Rubin, as well as creating the article about this book's author. - Burpelson AFB ✈ 14:29, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Delete for lack of notability and excessive COI involvement. 67.117.130.143 (talk) 19:16, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete It's an AuthorHouse book, print-on-demand. There's nothing wrong with self-published or vanity press books, but Wikipedia is not the place to bring them to the public's attention.  Mandsford 19:42, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
