Reads more like an ad; makes no actual assertion of notability and seems to be inticing us to buy it via external links. That can be cleaned, but notability is more of an issue. Blood Red Sandman (Talk) (Contribs) 21:08, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

Rather like Book of Mormon Authorship Revisited: The Evidence for Ancient Origins (currently at AfD), all we seem to have is an advert: inticement to buy via external links, no evidence of notability and the only content is a table of contents.

* Delete — I questioned the notability of this subject when I first noted it. It hasn't been improved since, so it should be deleted. There isn't even anything in the article worth merging into Archaeology and the Book of Mormon. — Val42 (talk) 17:03, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
