Talk:The Cretan Runner

Redirecting to George Psychoundakis

I chose to redirect this because while the author is notable, the book's notability stems from him. Other than the Guardian review, the book's mention seemed to be more of an aside mention of the author in general. If/when sources can be found that specifically mention the book independently of the author, the article should be un-redirected. The book does appear to be notable but is one of those cases of notability where that notability is so bound with the author that there aren't really that many sources that focus specifically on it.Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 08:51, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

• Hi Tokyogirl, this article was not tagged for more than 3 years, since its creation. I've realised that it lacked references etc. so it was tagged and PRODed less than 24 hours ago! I think, we should give the article's creators or any editor a chance to find proper references. I think a week waiting is proper, if nothing comes up by then, I agree with you a 100%. --Universal Life (talk) 09:04, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
• That's fine, but I'm not really expecting anyone to really do much. For the most part this article went largely ignored and anything that this book might cover is already in the author's article. I might AfD it just for the consensus and to see if anyone else can find anything that I might have missed.Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 06:44, 2 February 2013 (UTC)
  • You might be right, however we must not assume anything, even may be a little chance, someone (may be the creator) might come with important references, so we have to give'em a week chance at the least. --Universal Life (talk) 08:47, 2 February 2013 (UTC)
