Fails WP:NBOOK and WP:GNG. Seems to be part of a self-promotional thing by the author. See this discussion (permalink - the discussion may grow yet). Sitush (talk) 13:11, 29 January 2017 (UTC)
- NB: I am not saying that the article creator is the author of the book. But the book has been inserted at various articles in a manner that makes me think those insertions were by the author. And the creator Kanga Roo in the Zoo (talk · contribs) has edited the user page of the contributor whom I think may be the author of the books. - Sitush (talk) 13:12, 29 January 2017 (UTC)
- I am also nominating the following related pages because of the inherent connection - same author, amateur historian, fails GNG etc:
- Long ago in Coorg (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
- Mookonda Poonacha Nitin Kushalappa (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) - Sitush (talk) 13:17, 29 January 2017 (UTC)
- Delete all of them. The limited coverage of the author and his books are relatively trivial puff pieces. Fails WP:Notability. First Light (talk) 14:12, 29 January 2017 (UTC)
- Delete the bunch: lack of evidence of notability. I've had interactions with the creator before, too, and they did not inspire confidence as to their knowledge of policy. Vanamonde (talk) 17:36, 29 January 2017 (UTC)
