[edit]

Dcw2003 (talk) The book is notable in that it is a Best Seller. I can delete all the references that are not the book itself, but all of the information I cite in the article appear in the book, even if I reference external sources when I list the book's contents. I used external references primarily to verify that the points made in the book have appeared in other sources in order to add credibility to the book's claims. Every point I made in the article was made in the book, even if the sources cited are not the book itself. Additional points made by the author subsequent to the publishing of the book, such as in 2022 reinforce the author's points made in the book, and show the relevance and importance of the book at a later date. Weismann, as he is a Professor and TV commentator on MSNBC continues to reinforce many of the points he first made in the book.

@Dcw2003: per WP:BOOKCRIT this article doesn't currently meet the notability criteria. Your best bet is to satisfy condition 1: The book has been the subject of two or more non-trivial published works appearing in sources that are independent of the book itself. This can include published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, other books, television documentaries, bestseller lists, and reviews. This excludes media re-prints of press releases, flap copy, or other publications where the author, its publisher, agent, or other self-interested parties advertise or speak about the book.

As of right now, you only have one independent published works cited in this article. Balon Greyjoy (talk) 18:49, 4 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Clarification

[edit]

Is it a novel, or nonfiction? You call it both…? 167.224.118.178 (talk) 02:29, 19 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It's non-fiction. It is not a novel or fiction. Where does this article say otherwise? -- Valjean (talk) (PING me) 03:36, 19 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
