Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/After the Blast
Garth Callender only, '''Merge''' and '''Redirect''' After the Blast to Garth Callender. We have an article about a person with a story and the book he wrote about that story. They're inseparable. There's more out there about him than there is about the book -- except insofar as one can assume that when he talks about himself, he's also talking about the book, hence my !vote to keep the article about him. There are enough sources to satisfy . In no particular order: http://www.theaustralian.com.au/news/inquirer/the-battles-our-troops-face-after-coming-home/news-story/a5ebdd7ac17a57dce379d5013e80d9f0 The Australian, https://thewest.com.au/news/wa/army-veteran-shares-life-skills-ng-ya-126323 The West Australian, http://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/books/after-the-blast-review-why-cheating-death-couldnt-put-garth-callender-off-iraq-20150715-gi9v0q.html Sydney Morning Herald review, http://www.abc.net.au/local/stories/2015/07/08/4269568.htm Conversations with Richard Fidler (ABC.net.au), http://www.abc.net.au/radionational/programs/latenightlive/shell-shocked/6581850 Late Night Live (also ABC.net.au), https://www.pressreader.com/australia/mens-style-australia/20160601/281608124635191 Men's Style (via PressReader -- not sure if this is an EL problem), 60 Minutes segment (having trouble finding more than poor sites referencing this -- "Heroes of Ravenshoe/After the Blast/Switched at Birth"), http://www.6pr.com.au/news/the-australian-soldier-who-survived-iraq-bomb-attack-20150729-gimvs0.html 6PR (radio), apparently http://www.bunburymail.com.au/story/4311690/rachel-landers-who-bombed-the-hilton-wins-literary-prize/?cs=2364 won (Bunbury Mail) a minor-middling (non-notable) literary award called the Nib Waverley, http://www.theage.com.au/good-weekend/the-face-of-recovery-20150624-ghwcsm.html The Age and http://www.smh.com.au/good-weekend/the-face-of-recovery-20150624-ghwcsm.html SMH published an excerpt.... It's not a slam dunk, granted, but I think it gets by GNG. There are other sources with smaller bits of coverage. I recognize some of these are primary and therefore varied in the extent they're useful for the article, but I think they all contribute to a sense of notability/coverage. &mdash
