- Speedy Keep Not sure how the nominator missed the library holdings at World Cat but here they are:
- All over by Christmas is in University of Oxford, Trinity College Library Dublin, National Library of Scotland.
- The Friern Hospital story is in six major libraries including the above and the National Library of Medicine, Bethesda.
- Under the Wires at Tally Ho is in twenty libraries!
- British Library holdings of this author:
- Press coverage:
- His award is in Transactions of the London and Middlesex Archaeological Society, currently behind a paywall as too recent to be freely available. As the nomination appears to be based on an error, it would be gracious of @ DGG: to now withdraw it. Philafrenzy ( talk) 08:33, 10 July 2017 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep As Philafrenzy demonstrates in some detail, the stated basis for the nomination is not valid. Edwardx ( talk) 09:41, 10 July 2017 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep as per Edwardx. We have too few articles on municipal historians and Berguer's books are in several reputable libraries. No Swan So Fine ( talk) 15:38, 10 July 2017 (UTC)
- Keep per Philafrenzy. I would close per WP:SNOW but requesting a withdrawal is nicer. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 12:41, 11 July 2017 (UTC)
