Talk:He, She and It

Merge?

I'm going to prod this article but a small {one liner) could be placed on the author's page. (my opinion). --Stormbay (talk) 00:00, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

No way. This is a very notable book with a significant amount of scholarship dedicated to it. I removed the prod. Also, did you not notice that it says in the lede that this book won the Arthur C Clarke Award? That's a notable award, too, and winning it per se establishes notability, frankly. (Plus, an article written 3+ years ago with more than 30 edits is not really a good candidate for PROD.) --Lquilter (talk) 00:23, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

• Adding references section (12 scholarly publications just from searching MLA Bibliography for works primarily about "Body of Glass" and "He, She and It", the two titles, and excluding numerous works that reference or discuss this work in a minor context, as well as excluding multiple conference presentations and panels, etc.); removing PROD; removing "fails to establish notability" tag (either added incorrectly or not removed after someone added in the Clarke Award). --Lquilter (talk) 00:36, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
• Also pulled out relevant refs from SF Studies bibliography. Probably a good number in women's studies abstracts & in jewish studies indexing literature, too, but I think at more than a dozen we have surely evinced sufficient notability for this much-studied, much-read, award-winning book. -- —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lquilter (talk • contribs) 01:12, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
