Alfred de Bougy

This poet's poetic works are not significant per WP:BIO. Gary King (talk) 21:35, 18 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Do realize that a 19th century French poet may not have a huge presence on the internet. I'm inclined to err on the side of keep, but I'd love it if a specialist in French lit could chime in. Zagalejo^^^ 23:13, 18 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep While it is difficult to find English sources for this vastly pre-internet person, the French works mentioned on the page indicate this man's works were still being published over a centruy after his death, which seems to indicate notability.

Keep - it can be expanded with some info from other languages, but the fact that his work is still in publication means he's probably notable. matt91486 (talk) 06:32, 19 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. Pretty obviously notable per the number of books which write about him. Phil Bridger (talk) 20:34, 19 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
