Non-notable book published by a vanity press (PublishAmerica). Only 120 Google hits, mostly booksellers. No significant Amazon sales. Benja 17:30, 11 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per nom. Banja is absolutely right: this is a print-on-demand book, and although booksellers can stock it, I can't find any evidence that they do. Sales figures unknown, but given the price, the unknown author and no stock on library / bookstore shelves, I'd say unlikely to be the magic 5,000. Just zis Guy, you know?

- Delete; regardless of the quality of this particular book, the publisher in general does not seem very selective [1]. The google hits (57 hits for Blythe "Solar Element Saga") for a book written in English confirm that it is not notable enough for having an article about it written in an encyclopedia.

- Delete. Google turns up nothing to indicate notability, and these user histories make it look like clear vanity editing to me. --William Pietri 19:12, 11 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
