This is a bit odd, as I am the creator of the article. However, the subject fails any standard of notability. I think I was just new to Wikipedia, had an old book on my hands, and thought it deserved to be here. Looking back, the subject really isn't that notable. Google returns nothing of use besides people selling it or collectors of odd/old/cultish books. Lәo(βǃʘʘɱ) 05:20, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Here's one pretty decent source:[1] Phil Bridger (talk) 10:50, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy delete The creator and only maker of a substantial contribution to the article has requested it be deleted. I concur as failing notability. This needn't have come to AFD. The source cited by Phil Bridger seems to be an ironic or humorous reference to a nonnotable book. Someone using a copy of it with a carved out center section to hide a pistol does not make the book notable. Edison (talk) 15:11, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - I would of tagged for G7, however, I wanted to make sure that people had the ability to contest it, or if my search for reliable sources wasn't as good as theirs, and I may of missed something. For example, Phil just brought up a source; this wouldn't of happened in a speedy G7. Lәo(βǃʘʘɱ) 17:28, 19 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
