Deletion of Etchings in the Dead Wax

Comment: first in regards to user Polarpanda's comments; The book is included in google and is listed on over 5000 reputible booksellers worldwide including many noteable sellers such as Amazon, Chapters, Booktopia, and Barnes and Noble. In regards to user Bfigura comments; Article is noteable and meets many of the wiki noteability requirements listed in |relevant notability criteria. The novel has 3 unique ISBN's. The book is listed through Ingram books in print. The book is available in many libraries across Canada and through Library and Archives Canada (see the following link for an example: http://catalogue.halifaxpubliclibraries.ca/ipac20/ipac.jsp?session=12V33228D404R.15077&profile=hpl&uri=link=3100006~!2153534~!3100001~!3100043&aspect=subtab431&menu=search&ri=2&source=~!horizon&term=Etchings+in+the+dead+wax+%2F&index=ALLTITL#focus. The book also has a library of congress control number for US Libraries. The book was reviewed and accepted with Library Bound in Canada. In creating this article the author of the novel was contacted and he supplied sales reports showing over 1000 copies sold. Bfigura notes this does not denote noteability however research on many third party websites confirms this is extremely unique for a self-published book especially one by a Canadian author and certainly stirs public interest and defines the very essence of a noteable work. Although one of these many reasons does not stand as noteability, altogether these show the book is unique in its area of publication and confirm noteability for inclusion with wiki

Comment: this is indeed a non-notable self-published book.  The key point is that it's ''non-notable'', irrespective of being self-published.  Until the book gets significant coverage in independent reliable sources (or meets any of the other criteria in  like being recognized as influential), it is just not encyclopedically notable

Comment: I find no coverage of the title in any independent sources after searching Ebsco, Gale, and Proquest databases.  Not even a trivial mention.  I see no indication that the book has won a major literary award.  With no mentions at all found in any sources available to me, it is a safe assumption that those sources do not consider the book to have made a "significant contribution to a notable motion picture, or other art form, or event or political or religious movement."  Google search for title limiting to domain .edu brings no results, indicating the book is not the subject of instruction at any, never mind multiple, institutions of learning.  Searches for author's name in same sources yield identical results, indicating author is not of sufficient notability that any of his written works may be considered notable.  The book therefore fails all criteria of

Comment: No one's arguing that the book doesn't exist, or whether it's been listed by LoC or anyone else. We're simply stating that according to our criteria, it simply doesn't |qualify as a notable book (or really even constitute a borderline case). While selling 1,000 copies might be a nice personal accomplishment for a self-published author (I'm unsure of why being Canadian would make a difference), it doesn't make the book notable in any way, shape, or form

Comment: Suggest keeping article. Although Internet sourcing appears to be abundant however mostly retail oriented, the book has been the subject of notable print media here in Canada outside virtual sourcing. It seems unjustifiable to suggest deletion of an article when every one of the users that have suggested deletion did so immediately after the article was launched making it almost impossible to do the appropriate research required to provide valid insight and reason for the articles deletion. In keeping with wiki's guidelines and standards an article should first have the opportunity to receive unbiased contributions to strengthen the article before ever considering it for deletion. The novel was subject to an international book tour in North America upon release with appearances in bookstores in almost all major Canadian cities and some US cities. The author is also quite famous in Canada in underground extreme professional sports circles of which a vast multitude of print articles, interviews, and photographs exist which pre-date the internet hence their lack of virtual availability. The article is well written in its subject and insightful despite lack of 3rd party virtual sourcing. Please do not make attles and  s by nominating articles for deletion
