Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kingdom of Elleore
The article has been expanded and additional "sources" (and I use the term loosely) have been added. The problem is that almost every source is based on a single book—''Micro Nations: The Lonely Planet Guide to Home-Made Nations''. There is the book itself, a review of the book in ''The Australian'', and a page on the personal website of one of the authors of the book. The review of the book only has a single sentence relating to Elleore, which is nowhere near enough to qualify as "significant coverage". (Another review of the same book, cited above but not in the article, is equally vague as it relates to Elleore, and it's a review from a self-described "citizen-journalist and social media" site.) That leaves one other source, which is a one paragraph mention in a list of European micronations.  requires "significant coverage", and we only have a single source with in-depth coverage of the article, the book. Multiple sources are expected (as per ), and Wikipedia:N#cite_note-2|footnote 3 from the notability guideline is particularly relevant here: ''"Lack of multiple sources suggests that the topic may be more suitable for inclusion in an article on a broader topic. It is common for multiple newspapers or journals to publish the same story, sometimes with minor alterations or different headlines, but one story does not constitute multiple works. Several journals simultaneously publishing different articles does not always constitute multiple works, especially when the authors are relying on the same sources, and merely restating the same information. Similarly, a series of publications by the same author or in the same periodical is normally counted as one source."'' Heavy reliance on a single book does not make for a strong argument to retain this article
