Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Streaker (David Brin)
per .  This discussion is textbook case of why "|non-notable" is subjective and needs to be avoided at all costs.  This ship gets literally http://books.google.com/books?hl=en&q=Streaker+%22David+Brin%22 dozens of hits in published books, not just reviews, but published books.  The first page of results |verifies for us that it is a central element of a multi-volume series.  Now, some might claim that these books are primary, sources, and yet, after the first page of results we find that the subject is verified in everything from http://books.google.com/books?id=M_3kNDKhxIcC&pg=PA1276&dq=Streaker+%22David+Brin%22&lr=&cd=18#v=onepage&q=Streaker%20%22David%20Brin%22&f=false published encyclopedias to other http://books.google.com/books?id=6_Fuwfs29wIC&pg=PA124&dq=Streaker+%22David+Brin%22&lr=&cd=21#v=onepage&q=Streaker%20%22David%20Brin%22&f=false analytical texts (in this example, we have out of universe discussion of the model of the ship).  Anything covered at all in so many different published books meets the |common sense standard of notability in addition to the subjectively interpreted wikipedic notion.  Sincerely
