Notability - raised on Talk: in April, but no further comments.

This article, first of all has no substantive content. Other than the publisher's metadata, there is nothing here.

Secondly, is this a significant or notable book? It is a popular book, certainly. Any book of the form "Learning <popular-programming-language>, O'Reilly" is going to sell in millions. But that is WP:NOTINHERITED notability, from O'Reilly and Python. This is not even the leading or most recommended Python tutorial, that would be Beazley's Python Essential Reference, ISBN 0672329786

Other than WP:NOTDIR, why is this article here?

Does this article stand up, for either of these problems? Andy Dingley (talk) 12:41, 25 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
