Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Oxford Portraits in Science
I've now spent some time searching, and have found no evidence that the whole series is edited by the Harvard University astronomer Owen Gingerich, or that the series is in any way notable. Gingerich is listed in the ''Media Review'' reference as "General Editor", but OUP don't note any editors for the other books in their web pages I've looked at. OUP produces an immense number of series, just follow the links in the sidebar to the left of http://www.us.oup.com/us/catalog/general/series/OxfordPortraitsinScience/~~/Ym9va0NvdmVycz1ubyZwZj0wJnByPTEwJnNkPWFzYyZzZj1hbGwmc3M9YXV0aG9yLmFzYyZ2aWV3PXVzYQ== this list. Remember #Wikipedia is not a directory|Wikipedia is not a directory of non-notable lists of series of books by publishers. What's still needed is a reliable third party source asserting that this is notable as a series, and my research found nothing
