Deletion of Hello Sailor (novel)

Comment: Notability is sometimes inherited. Per |WP:N/BOOKS: "The book's author is so historically significant that any of his or her written works may be considered notable". I think that applies here

Comment: this may seem like splitting hairs, but I don't think notability is transitive across categories.  in other words, Idle is principally noted for his work in the Python troupe--almost exclusively.  That fame and note might not apply to his fiction and non-fiction after he stopped making python works (or otherwise apart from those works).  If, in some cases, the work becomes famous as a result of the author, we will have sources to work with (making this discussion unnecessary).  If, as it might be in this case, that fame does not translate into widespread notice of the work, are we to use the NB exception here?  Wouldn't it be more appropriate to the spirit of  to apply it to famous ''authors'' whose books would not meet WP:N were they published by a relative unknown
