The result was delete. G11'd - that shouldn't be taken to mean a neutral article couldn't be written, but this ain't remotely that. Wily D 10:46, 13 June 2014 (UTC) reply

Unambiguous essay that solely promotes points and opinions in subject rather than giving a WP:NPOV coverage of it. Mr. Guye ( talk) 22:47, 12 June 2014 (UTC) reply

the neutral point of view is that mainstream textbooks are misleading. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jkomlos ( talkcontribs) 23:23, 12 June 2014 (UTC) reply

  • That's still an opinion, as it's based upon your personal research. It all boils down to notability. You have to show notability for your work based upon independent and reliable sources. WP:PRIMARY sources are never usable to show notability. Bluntly put, the subject of the article isn't what is being discussed here. What's being discussed is whether or not your book passes notability guidelines. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 04:06, 13 June 2014 (UTC) reply
  • Delete as nominated, this is merely a repetition of the books content rather than an article about the book. Also the work seems to fail WP:BOOK. TheLongTone ( talk) 00:22, 13 June 2014 (UTC) reply

  • Delete as unambiguously promotional --this is undoubtedly also a copyvio, but I haven't had a chance to look for it. If the book is notable, it would have to be rewritten from scratch. DGG ( talk ) 03:32, 13 June 2014 (UTC) reply
