Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas
There is only one quote from this book, and it is of doubtful quality. If it is worth keeping, it should go in an article about the author.— Longfellow 11:05, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

 * Keep and move to a page on the author. The author is clearly notable; the quote isn't much, but it is a seed. BD2412 T 16:39, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Briefly, what BD2412 said. -Sketchmoose 18:08, 6 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment: It is not clear which of the three works mentioned in the introduction is the source of these quotes. It appears that the adaptations expand upon the original book. The quote really isn't much: I guess you had to be there. ~ Ningauble 14:53, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment If it's not from the original book, who is the author?--Longfellow 22:02, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Although the article introduction's narrative is not clear about which work is being quoted, the original contributor categorized the article under Films. According to Wikipedia, the television film adaptation was written by Jerry Juhl based on the book by Russell Hoban, with lyrics by Paul Williams. One would need to examine the book and the film to ascertain the quote's original author. ~ Ningauble 14:57, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
 * The lede begins with "Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas is a children's storybook", and goes on to describe the other media into which the storybook has been adapted. The page, then, would appear to be about the book. BD2412 T 16:37, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
 * The lede is copied verbatim from the Wikipedia article, which discusses all three works. I seriously doubt that the contributor of this article, who used formatting and categories appropriate for a film, is actually quoting from the book. ~ Ningauble 17:05, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
 * In any case, the solution is to find out what media this page should be moved to, rather than deleting it. BD2412 T 16:24, 14 December 2010 (UTC)


 * To summarize: I'm happy for this article to be converted to one on the author if he actually wrote that quote and it doesn't come from the film script. If it is from the film then the article should be converted to one on the film.--Longfellow 09:13, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
