- Delete: I have watched this page for years. Even with fans trying hard to build it up (with unreferenced claims that are quickly removed by other editors), it has always failed WP:GNG. George Custer's Sabre (talk) 02:43, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- Delete Nothing solid seems to be out there. You Tube & Twitter do not cut any mustard. WP notability guidelines have never made any sense to me; I'm not sure that the book might not be considered notable, sine there are reviews. Even if it sank without a trave.

- Delete. I tagged this for notability a couple of days before it was proposed for deletion. I did a search at that point and could not find sources to meet WP:GNG. Tacyarg (talk) 15:21, 13 December 2022 (UTC)

- Delete. Nothing to add on previous delete comments other than to say a few book reviews does not pass WP:NAUTHOR. See WP:NBOOK for the more appropriate notability criteria. Books reviews may add to a book's notability, but not necessarily to the author without showing how and why the book is significant. The Lord of the Rings is significant, but Bored of the Rings is notable but not significant. Saucysalsa30 (talk) 20:18, 27 December 2022 (UTC)
