Talk:Mountaineering: The Freedom of the Hills
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I added the "standard textbook" language, in order to make it more palatable for most Wikipedians. I think that many people would object to an article about a random book. However, this book is very important to the climbing community and I think it deserves an article. -- hike395 18:53, 26 Nov 2003 (UTC)
- Paranoid about "deletionists" are we?? :-) My rule of thumb is to consider making an article for a book when it is used as a reference for more than one article, just so info isn't repeated. Books in multiple editions are likely to have interesting history too. Stan 14:06, 27 Nov 2003 (UTC)
- I was using the book as a reference for some of the paraphrased information I put on Wikipedia. As we all know much knowledge this book contains for climbers/mountaineers, I also thought it deserved its own article. RedWolf 01:50, Dec 2, 2003 (UTC)
