The Other Eden
One misspelled quote, no intro, no wp article. Google search points to half a dozen different ebooks and various references in blogs, but there's no actual book on amazon.com. Suspect self-published vanity. ~ MosheZadka (Talk) 03:29, 21 July 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete unless evidence of notability provided. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 07:18, 22 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep as stub now (see comment below). I will add new information to the article shortly. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 13:04, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete said Jeff, and I would like to have also appropriate biblio- or other sort graphical information (author, published year etc.)--Aphaia 14:06, 26 July 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep currently; if this quote could be attributed to the work Jeff pointed, it might be notable. --Aphaia 09:12, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Comment: In the process of closing this vote, I discovered that we'd missed an important clue: the link from List of literary works. This article is misnamed; it should be This Other Eden, by Ben Elton, well-known British comedian and writer, co-writer of Blackadder with Richard Curtis. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 13:04, 4 August 2005 (UTC)
 * Just to be clear, I should note here that I've added the ISBN for This Other Eden to the current article, and verified that it (and many other Elton works cited in his WP article) are available on Amazon. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 03:37, 6 August 2005 (UTC)
