Only include books which have their own articles

The 2019 AfD which resulted in Keep, but with many people implicitly invoking WP:CSC #1, namely Every entry meets the notability criteria for its own article in the English Wikipedia. Red-linked entries are acceptable if the entry is verifiably a member of the listed group and it is reasonable to expect an article could be forthcoming in the near future. The 2019 AfD on "Bibliography of books critical of Christianity" also resulted in Keep, but also with many people implicitly invoking WP:CSC #1. At Bibliography of books critical of Christianity, this rule is being enforced, but here it hasn't. Therefore, I am going to do that now. Nederlandse Leeuw (talk) 18:25, 20 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Disagree with the heading. What it does need is documented inclusion criteria. Bibliographies are a rare kind of list where I don't think we need dedicated articles for each listing (it's a bibliography, not an index, after all). Here's one possible criteria:
Has a stand-alone article, or
The author has a stand-alone article which mentions the book, or
It is published by a reputable publisher and supported by at least two reliable sources indicating it is indeed critical of Islam.
