Talk:Anomaly (series)

[Untitled]

I am new to Wikipedia, but I have tried creating this article. I have a reference that should demonstrate that this book exists. Transcendentalist01 (talk) 00:42, 26 February 2014 (UTC)

Within about a minute, there was a proposal that this article be deleted, on the grounds that this novel is a non-notable book. Could someone please help me figure out which books should not be included in Wikipedia? This is a sincere question on my part. Transcendentalist01 (talk) 01:07, 26 February 2014 (UTC)

The book need to be notable in some way: in the case of fiction this generally means that it has either been the subject of serious critical attention or won a major award. I did have a look before I PRODed the article, & all I could find were mentions on bookseller sites.TheLongTone (talk) 01:13, 26 February 2014 (UTC)

• I did manage to find sources, but I think I'm going to make this about the book series as a whole since that would help cement the notability a little more. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 06:29, 26 February 2014 (UTC)
• I've made the changes to have this focus on the series as opposed to a single book. The reason is that I think that it'll be easier to show notability for the overall series, plus it'd make it easier to incorporate information about the other books, as book 2 seems to have not gotten as much coverage as the first one. This is pretty typical for any book trilogy, which is why it's usually better to do a series page instead of a single page. I've also made a page for the author, since her other works have received coverage as well and could merit a page for her as well. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 07:04, 26 February 2014 (UTC)
