• Comment: Here are two sources I found about the book:
  1. Perret, Jens K.; Linden, Marius; Helferich, Andreas; Rommel, Kai (2025-12-20). "Sustainable Web-Design and Digital Marketing Potentials". Sustainability. Vol. 18, no. 1. pp. 2–3. doi:10.3390/su18010078. ProQuest 3291840451.

     The article notes: "Greenwood [13] (pp. 29–31) contends that robust information architecture (IA) and UX design facilitate the avoidance of superfluous page views. He posits that convoluted and inefficient structures precipitate extended loading times and poor user experiences. Caching measures constitute a mechanism that can aid in the reduction in energy consumption. Users should not encounter unnecessary intermediate steps, such as gateway pages, as these complicate the navigation towards the requisite information. Greenwood [13] (p. 32) further recommends the reduction in content to ensure more sustainable user guidance. This underscores the relevance of consistent content review and adjustment, a process Frick [11] (pp. 114–116) refers to as a content audit. This allows for the identification and optimization of obsolete and redundant content, which in turn ensures an efficient and sustainable information architecture. Greenwood [13] (p. 33) argues that both the user journey and exit behavior (bounce) merit systematic analysis. They enable the determination of whether users rapidly locate the requisite information, resulting in a desirable exit, or if the bounce is attributable to frustration induced by unstructured guidance or protracted loading times. The preceding discussion has demonstrated that sustainable web design confers not only ecological but also strategic advantages for organizations."

  2. "Sustainable Web Design". Communication Arts. Vol. 64, no. 1. March–April 2022. p. 12. EBSCOhost 155329485.

     The entry notes this is a book review. I do not have access to the text of the review.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Needs review of sources found by Cunard.

• Delete. The sources seem to be largely lightweight pieces associated with a book tour or similar effort, often relying on a primary-source perspective to describe the book. The Perret et. al source is secondary in its framing, but seems to be referencing the work to explain sustainable web design, rather than critiquing the book itself or documenting its importance.

• Delete. This book does not pass WP:GNG. Aneirinn (talk) 07:17, 27 May 2026 (UTC)

• Neutral - This stub was just created has anyone asked the person that created the page if they plan on working on it? If yes then leave it, if no then delete it. Dd3r1n0 (talk) 18:21, 28 May 2026 (UTC)
• Delete: Quick BEFORE doesn't come up with much - mostly author interviews and surface-level summaries. Doesn't meet WP:NBOOK or GNG. netstars22 (talk to me!) 15:02, 29 May 2026 (UTC)
