Candlelight Spells[edit]
Delete as non-encyclopedic. There are lots of similar books of spells out there, and this one doesn't seem to have had any particular impact on the world. FreplySpang (talk) 03:14, 17 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. The reviews at amazon seem to indicate that it's influential. RickK 07:26, Apr 17, 2005 (UTC)
- I'm not sure which listing on Amazon you found. A sales ranking of 720,107 seems pretty poor to me. It's one of over a dozen books published by the same author. I can't find anything to distinguish this one. Inclining toward delete for now. Rossami (talk) 03:33, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Delete per Rossami. Radiant_* 14:09, Apr 18, 2005 (UTC)
- Keep non-vanity books. Author also has a book ranked #104,415 [1], must be reasonably notable in the crowded field of Spellcasting, Feasting, and Healing. Kappa 22:15, 18 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Comment: Your second sentence would seem to be an argument for keeping an article about the author (which I would support except that the current article is a copyvio). I'm afraid I don't see the relevance of the comment to this article about the non-selling book. Rossami (talk) 16:23, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- My thinking is that if an author is interesting to significant numbers of people, any books they might write can also be presumed to be interesting to them. Kappa 20:22, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

- Delete, doesn't look notable. Tempshill 20:18, 19 Apr 2005 (UTC)
- Delete, not notable. ("non-fiction"? I dunno about that. ;-)) RussBlau 19:11, Apr 22, 2005 (UTC)
- Keep non-vanity Citadel Press book The Steve 19:29, Apr 22, 2005 (UTC)
