Non-notable book series lacking GHits and GNEWS of substance. Appears to fail WP:NOTBOOK. ttonyb (talk) 00:32, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, nothing but a collection of external links. Wikipedia is not a directory. JIP | Talk 05:06, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Fails Wikipedia:NBOOK, no significant coverage online from WP:Reliable sources, article is mostly a huge batch of Amazon links, with consequent highly WP:PROMO tone. Top Jim (talk) 09:18, 15 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - just a collection of links. Bubba73 ^{You talkin' to me?} 00:45, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. The content is not an informational encylopedia article, nor does it serve any navigational purpose in binding together articles or serve any developmental purpose as suggested by WP:LIST. I agree with SyG's and Bubba73's comments. Sjakkalle (Check!) 10:07, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: The author made this comment on the talk page: "This series is about the first chess book seris designed specifically for kindle. If that is not notable, nothing is." This seems very overdriven to me. The way I understand it, it means the same as "the first chess book series designed specifically for Kindle is not only the most notable thing in the world, it's the most notable concept that could ever exist". More notable than the Kindle, more notable than chess, more notable than us humans, more notable than the Earth, or the entire universe. I'm amazed the author hasn't realised how ridiculous such a claim sounds. JIP | Talk 20:15, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
