The result was redirect to Pamela Geller. Consensus was the book didn't meet NBOOK/GNG, but that a redirect was appropriate. j⚛e deckertalk 21:34, 19 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- Redirect to Pamela Geller. There's a little coverage in reliable sources: Daily Beast[1], a mention in Village Voice[2], and American Thinker probably meets WP:RS requirements[3]. But coverage tends to be about Geller as much as the book. The current article mainly cites the book's publicity material, not material published in reliable sources, so it's hardly worth saving. If someone finds more sources and expands the article on the book, I will reconsider. --Colapeninsula (talk) 14:30, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to Pamela Geller, the subject of this AfD has received multiple mentions from non-primary reliable sources; however, it is my opinion that the sum of those mentions do not add up to significant coverage of the subject. Therefore it does not meet notability as defined by WP:GNG. That being said, it is written by a notable author, therefore, I agree with Colapeninsula and believe the article should be redirected to the author without any merger. If the article receives significant coverage in the future, it can always be recreated.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 18:06, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to Pamela Geller per above two comments. BerleT (talk) 22:40, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect and salt - where a fringy book has been written about, but most of the coverage is about its author, we have redirected articles about books, lawsuits, articles, etc., to the primary author's article. See Orly Taitz and Edward Said as precedents in this category. Bearian (talk) 17:14, 18 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
