- Delete per
WP:BOOKWP:NBOOK and WP:NOTADVERTISING. Nothing to merge in addition to info already on author's page. Ipsign (talk) 06:30, 4 November 2010 (UTC) - Keep. This book has over 900 citations, (over 1,000 if you add the Chinese? version) [1] and at least 4 editions. Reviews surely exist. A few quick finds [2] [3] [4] etc. Tijfo098 (talk) 07:08, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
- As I understand it, number of citations is not a valid criteria under WP:NBOOK. As for these reviews, I'm not sure if they satisfy nontrivial requirement (especially this one is IMHO outright trivial: [5]). I like this book myself, but still doubt if it merits its own page in Wikipedia. Ipsign (talk) 10:56, 6 November 2010 (UTC)
