While my concerns about <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Spam" title="Wikipedia:Spam">spam</a> remain, there are other reasons for removing the material from this article that are not relevant to the speedy deletion discussion at <a href="/w/index.php?title=Talk:Drawing_Upon_Art:_Workbook_for_Gardner%27s_Art_Through_The_Ages_(LG_Williams)&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Talk:Drawing Upon Art: Workbook for Gardner's Art Through The Ages (LG Williams) (page does not exist)">talk:Drawing Upon Art: Workbook for Gardner's Art Through The Ages (LG Williams)</a>. In particular, <i>this</i> article is about "Gardner's Art Through the Ages". This is therefore not the place for an elaborate treatment (half the article!) of "Drawing Upon Art", by an unrelated author. Furthermore, this is particularly the case when, for the moment at least, "Drawing Upon Art" has a detailed article all of its own. If you are genuinely interested in improving this article, rather than promoting your own, my suggestion is that you would make a far more valuable contribution if you were to spend some time building upon this article to improve its quality and comprehensiveness. You might even see fit to use "Drawing Upon Art" as a reference! <a href="/wiki/User:Debate" class="mw-redirect" title="User:Debate">Debate</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Debate" class="mw-redirect" title="User talk:Debate">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Gardner%27s_Art_Through_the_Ages#c-Debate-2008-04-23T09:49:00.000Z-Art4em-2008-04-23T06:55:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">09:49, 23 April 2008 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Debate-2008-04-23T09:49:00.000Z-Art4em-2008-04-23T06:55:00.000Z"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Debate-2008-04-23T09:49:00.000Z-Art4em-2008-04-23T06:55:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl> <p><br /><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Art4em-2008-04-23T17:23:00.000Z"></span> Ok, as I saw that the article was a 'stub' I attempted to give the article some girth -- so I have removed any 'elaborate' treatment on its behalf.

There are also verifiability (see <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:V" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:V">WP:V</a>) problems. The book appears to be, at best, a self published work. The only references that can be found to support its existence are the author's own. The article states that the work is to be published by Cengage in April 2008. It is now May 2008 and there is still no evidence that the book exists, nor are any reliable sources available to support its existence. To date, no university or public library catalogue I have searched returns any reference to the book and the Cengage website makes no mention of it. I must say, however, that although I would remain dubious about the reference remaining in this article, if anyone can find a public or university library with the item in its holdings, or a reference direct from Cengage, I would feel a little more comfortable. <a href="/wiki/User:Debate" class="mw-redirect" title="User:Debate">Debate</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Debate" class="mw-redirect" title="User talk:Debate">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Gardner%27s_Art_Through_the_Ages#c-Debate-2008-05-08T07:20:00.000Z-Dubious_Tags" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">07:20, 8 May 2008 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Debate-2008-05-08T07:20:00.000Z-Dubious_Tags"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Debate-2008-05-08T07:20:00.000Z-Dubious_Tags"></span> </p> <dl><dd><dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Art4em-2008-05-12T07:40:00.000Z-Debate-2008-05-08T07:20:00.000Z"></span>Let me address the following:</dd> <dd>1: Adds nothing?

Per consensus, references to "Drawing Upon Art" in this article will be deleted until the work appears on the Cengage website. As a record of the deleted material will still be available via the history tab it can be reinstated relatively easily as required. While I still have concerns that references to the work in this article could be interpreted as <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:SPAM" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:SPAM">advertising</a>, in the spirit of compromise I won't raise any further objection to its inclusion once evidence of its publication by Cengage, or any other notable publisher, is available.

It is not necessary or desirable to include extensive commentary on each derivative work, let alone to cover the <i>workbook</i> for a derivative work in more detail than Gardner's Art Through the Ages is itself covered. If one is interested in genuinely improving this article, the article would certainly benefit from more detailed commentary on the significance and influence of the original work. On the other hand, introducing promotional references to peripheral products does not contribute significantly to a reader's understanding of the topic, and undermines the credibility of Wikipedia as a serious encyclopedia.
