Non-notable book lacking in-depth, non-trivial support. PROD removed by article author. reddogsix (talk) 17:07, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
- Delete - Zero sourcing available. Non-notable (e) book, by non-notable author, from non-notable publisher. Wikiquote page already deleted. Bunch of content on Commons deleted. Apparently xwiki effort at self promotion. GMGtalk 17:11, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
- Speedy delete. All of 7 Google hits for this self-published work. —МандичкаYO 😜 19:59, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
- Speedy delete Clear attempt at self-promotion by self-published author, no claim to notability, no coverage, fails WP:GNG, violates WP:COPYVIO unless written by same author, in which case violates WP:COI. Bakazaka (talk) 20:24, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
- Speedy delete blatant COI and self promotion per above. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 20:39, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
- Speedy delete This book clearly fails to meet the standards that are outlined in the general notability guideline. ―Susmuffin Talk 22:48, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
- Delete as a non-notable book. I don't see how this would any of the speedy critera, so this discussion probably needs to run the full course. Bradv 01:25, 9 August 2018 (UTC)
- can my article be moved into draft space please? I understand the concerns and am willing to address them over time. I am learning about the wiki policies but my screen does not show "save as draft" it only shows "publish". Tonrene
- Speedy delete per GreenMeansGo who has provided the necessary and accurate rationale. The page has since been blanked and CSD U1 tagged. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 05:22, 9 August 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks to all editors. Also Thanksto Bradv for the encouragement to help me learn. I blanked the page to delete it. Apparently, that doesn't work. Please feel free to delete it. But I would be grateful to get any leads on how to create a draft as opposed to starting with a published page. Do I just leave it in the sandbox? (Tonrene (talk) 05:46, 9 August 2018 (UTC))
