Proposed merge with After the Blast[edit]

The article After the Blast contains references that only point to the book publisher, or references that purely discuss the author & not the book itself. The General Notability Guideline has therefore not been met. I suggest merging appropriate content into the article about the author. Exemplo347 (talk) 11:26, 28 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'd suggest the other way around. The book was well received and was the subject of several professional reviews, so it probably meets the notability criteria for books. However, I don't think that Major Callender meets the notability criteria for individuals (WP:BIO) at present, as he's mainly known as the book's author.

Support merge in the initially proposal direction. Garth has charity and quasi-government roles which go beyond the scope of the book page, and the contents of the current book page could easily be accommodate on his bio page. Klbrain (talk) 20:36, 27 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
