I think if it's by a zine editor and more like a one-shot zine than a full book, then yes. But if it's by someone that doesn't publish zines or is really just a self-published book, then no. There is a "One-shot" tag with definition on the ZineWiki to add to one-shot zine listings ("A one-shot is a zine without multiple issues. One-shots are typically utilized when a zinester wishes to write material, or about a subject, not typical to their zine.")  [[User:Dan10things|dan10things]] 17:31, 13 September 2006 (EDT)
