List of GURPS books
- List of GURPS books (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log)
This list of books is little more than a publishers catalogue, and as such is prohibited advertising or other spam without relevant content per WP:Spam. As most of the articles about the books listed have been or are about to be deleted, the list fails to demonstrate notabilty per Misplaced Pages:Notability (books). --Gavin Collins 09:00, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

Moreover, this article lists all GURPS books, many of them out of print, so it can hardly be spam (I'd be quite glad if I could find a copy of GURPS Conan, for instance). As for the structure of the article itself, Misplaced Pages is also a reference work, and an article like this one is not dissimilar in its function from (don't gasp) List of compositions by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. --Goochelaar 11:14, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
