*::::::What "significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources"?? The article has references to two obscure publications (yea, I get ''Network Computing'', too, and so can anyone else who has an email address), and you listed a collection of blog posts that from the publisher's web site (but thankfully didn't include that as a reference, since it doesn't qualify). Big deal! Between the two of us, we have written about as much about this book as your "multiple independent reliable sources" have. Remember from GNG, "''self-publicity, advertising, self-published material by the subject, autobiographies, and press releases are not considered independent''". I know you think this is a cool book, but there isn't much else to justify keeping it. I am trying to [[WP:AGF|assume good faith]], but what is your great concern with keeping this obscure little book from being deleted? --[[User:Rogerd|rogerd]] ([[User talk:Rogerd|talk]]) 17:08, 30 June 2011 (UTC)
*:::::::I give up. You can review [[WP:RS]] for what a reliable source is and why your personal belief that a publication is "obscure" doesn't relate to it, and I'll note that "oh gosh I really want to AGF but I just can''not'' imagine that you would argue the way you're doing without a hidden COI" is not what success at AGF looks like. Beyond that, I'm done. If the article gets deleted because of this nonsense, it'll be trivial to get it back at DRV.

:::::::::My goodness, Chaos5023. This can't be the first AfD where someone's taken a position you don't agree with. Anyway, it appears you have the !votes to win, but that's not enough? I think you could agree to disagree, be a gracious winner and move on. There's no need for histrionics about going to DRV if you don't get your way.
