Waltz of Shadows

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Does not pass WP:NBOOK, lacks multiple reviews in reliable sources. Green Cardamom (talk) 05:22, 23 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Redirect to Joe_R._Lansdale_bibliography. I found a Publishers Weekly review, but there wasn't anything else that would show that this book is particularly noteworthy outside of Lansdale himself. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   08:33, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

I'm, not sure if this is the place to discuss the deletion of this article I created. I feel this is a slippery slope when articles are deleted because some feel this work is not worthy of beinbg included to Wikipedia. Kind of reminds me of Fascism book burning, but you folks have the power, so do what you may...PKDASD (talk) 23:29, 3 October 2013 (UTC)
 * PKDASD, in fact most of the dozens of Joe R. Lansdale article's have the same problem of not being notable for Wikipedia per WP:NBOOK. There is no campaign to delete them, but there is a slippery slope that anyone could AfD them at any time. If I was you, I would do two things: 1. move all this content to Wikia which is made for this type of thing and/or 2. aggregate the books into series articles as much as possible, since series are usually more notable than individual books. -- Green Cardamom (talk) 00:40, 4 October 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the advise. At this point in time I'm weary and leery of this whole deal. I'm feel like I'm ready to tell Wikipedia to fuck off. They whine about not having enough contributing editors. Now I now why. Who wants to put up with this shit? PKDASD (talk) 03:41, 5 October 2013 (UTC)

BTW I have no idea what Wikia is. Sorry for the language, but I'm a little pissed right now. PKDASD (talk) 03:51, 5 October 2013 (UTC)
