• All I found so far is this [1] from Publishers Weekly. The Guardian reviewed two other books of his in this series, but not this one. Dream Focus 17:55, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Redirect to James_Patterson_bibliography#Witch_and_Wizard_series. Much like Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Witch & Wizard: The Kiss, there is not much in the way of reliable sources for this book, but it would make a useful redirect to James Patterson's bibliography, where it is already listed.

• Merge with James Patterson - the article on Witch & Wizard: The Fire is only a brief one, and a merge should not prove too difficult. Vorbee (talk) 19:55, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment: I would actually recommend that if this is merged and redirected, that this go to the article for the first book, Witch & Wizard. The first book looks like it should be notable and it has some information on the other books in the series, so this would work better as a redirect. TBH, I would recommend turning the main book page into somewhat of a series page since that would help make the information flow a little better since the other books will be redirected there.

  ReaderofthePack, I agree with this suggestion. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 18:46, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Here is my general draft of what the series page would look like, minus the image (since it's copyrighted). If everyone is OK with this, I'll move it over. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 17:56, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  ReaderofthePack, I think we should wait until these AFDs are over to avoid any confusion. You may wanna merge Book 1 and 4 too. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 18:03, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Good point. In any case, I was planning on having all of the pages redirect to the main article, which would be turned into a series page. Individually they all have some issues with sourcing or finding sourcing (with the exception of perhaps the first book) but as a series they would be notable. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 19:17, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  ReaderofthePack, sounds good. Merge all 4 articles into this main one. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 19:41, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  ReaderofthePack, the other witch and wizard afd was closed as redirect to author page. --Tyw7 (🗣️ Talk) — If (reply) then (ping me) 12:54, 22 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge and Redirect to Witch & Wizard per ReaderofthePack.4meter4 (talk) 03:56, 23 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
