I would agree with Graham that the novel is notable. But I think the tag is as much a comment on the lack of article material as the pure notability of the novel itself; which may just be a pretext for removal of a very stublike article. Best defence, write a fully featured article with notability issues intrinsic to the article. :: Kevinalewis : ^{(Talk Page)}/_(Desk) 16:31, 23 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Also given that this article has just been started the tag is a bit previous. :: Kevinalewis : ^{(Talk Page)}/_(Desk) 16:33, 23 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'll beef it up shortlyGrahamHardy (talk) 14:27, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Put some of the above into the article; need to try and finsd a better image and put it in an infobox...GrahamHardy (talk) 23:13, 7 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Found better image and added infobox; removed notability and merge tags; please re-add them if you think they're still needed...GrahamHardy (talk) 17:07, 20 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
