A strange combination of information on the Japan Book Club Association, and an opinion piece on Japanese "thinking skills and communication skills." Comatmebro User talk:Comatmebro 19:35, 8 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete: I can barely make sense of this page, but it seems to serve little purpose besides advertising this organization. It's a complete mess and it's not encyclopedic. -IagoQnsi (talk) 00:30, 14 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete 90% of the refs are from the book club. The refs not from the book club are strange. For example, there are a couple of books, written ten years before the club started, that source the overview of the club. In the article atleast, there is nothing that says it passes GNG.

• Delete. Article makes little sense and doesn't have a credible claim to notability. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 19:11, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
