Unclear why we need two lists of books in a minor language written with one or the other system of orthography. We wouldn't allow lists of all books written in other languages, even though individual books are easily referenced of course: but the group is not a notable subject.

Delete both per WP:NOTDIRECTORY and WP:CSC. All the links I followed were to, notable books that had been translated, to their authors, or to external links. Not a single article of the ones I looked at bothered to note a Silesian edition. This article may have been inspired by Tomasz Kamusella's list of the same name [1]. Kamusella's list and his other works on the Silesian language may be notable, but I don't think this article is that. SpinningSpark 13:28, 29 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Leave both. Silesian language is on the process of codification and emancipation. This list is important for people who learn the language, try to decribe it or want to write about standarization processes. Ozi (talk) 16:35, 29 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
wp:IMPORTANT and wp:USEFUL are not legitimate arguments. Dronebogus (talk) 23:32, 29 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete both as hyper-specialized listcruft that is not useful or interesting to general readers of a given topic area, which is the target audience of Wikipedia. Dronebogus (talk) 23:30, 29 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
