Talk:Voices from the Gathering Storm

Initial comment

I own, operate and publish voices.datacorner.com. Any material I post to voices.datacorner.com and www.datacorner.com is in the public domain. There is no copyright notice on anything listed in the datacorner.com domain. If needed, I can place a public domain notice on voices.datacorner.com.

Anything else?

...and I just added the GFDL as a footer to voices.datacorner.com. OK?

The critical sources listed are both published authors providing their objective evaluation of the book. Although these evaluations are complimentary, I would argue that they are not 'advertisement' since they are third party evaluations. Would appreciate any references within Wiki to other book descriptions that I might use for guidance as to Wiki compliance. Datacorner 16:17, 13 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is it worth keeping this article?

I do not see the point in having an article on books which are not notable. This book is not notable yet. Alan Liefting 09:34, 15 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

What is notable?

Haven't heard of "notable" as a criterion for inclusion into Wikipedia. The category "2005 books" lists 188 entries. Of those which are "notable"? Voices at least has the merit to have been reviewed by other published authors (feel free to check the book website) and to contain contributions by still other published authors -recognized authorities in the environmental domain-, some of whom are already listed in Wikipedia. If we use peer review as the entry barrier, how many of the books listed under "2005 books" meet even that criterion?
