Line 8 ⟶ 15:

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 Media|O'Reilly]] and [[Python (programming language)|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?

*'''Delete''' Fails [[WP:NBOOK]] little coverage in secondary sources, has not been the subject of any non-trivial review. - '''[[User:Champion|<big>C</big><small>HAMPION</small>]]''' ^{([[User talk:Champion|talk]]) ([[Special:Contributions/Champion|contributions]]) ([[Special:Logs/Champion|logs]])} 07:31, 10 December 2016 (UTC)

*'''Delete''' -- article appears to be promotional in nature, while the reviews are rather trivial. [[User:K.e.coffman|K.e.coffman]] ([[User talk:K.e.coffman|talk]]) 03:47, 16 December 2016 (UTC)
