Not able to find much of anything about the topic. The phrase was coined by Laura Rockhold who doesn't appear notable herself nor a subject-matter expert. Topic doesn't appear to have any widespread usage. ––FormalDude (talk) 05:39, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Golden root is not a phrase, it is a new, official poetic form. It was invented by Laura Rockhold in 2022, who is a poet and the subject matter expert. As of now, Rockhold's golden root has been published in Black Fox Literary Magazine, been recognized by the League of Minnesota Poets and is forthcoming in other literary journals. 97.127.51.105 (talk) 01:23, 9 July 2023 (UTC) Note to closing admin: 97.127.51.105 (talkcontribs) is the creator of the page that is the subject of this AfD.

  • Delete & Restore Redirect to Rhodiola rosea - There are no sources in the article actually discussing the topic, and searches turned up absolutely no coverage on it in reliable sources. The phrase was a valid redirect to the topic of Rhodiola rosea before, so this current article on this non-notable topic should be deleted and the redirect restored.

    Keep & Restore Redirect to Rhodiola rosea at the top of the Golden root page. The golden root poetic form is new as of 2022; it is established and published with additional publications forthcoming. Black Fox Literary Magazine and the League of Minnesota Poets are reliable sources who have published and recognized the golden root poetic form. 97.127.51.105 (talk) 02:06, 9 July 2023 (UTC) Note to closing admin: 97.127.51.105 (talkcontribs) is the creator of the page that is the subject of this AfD.

  • Delete (or redirect if a suitable target can be found). Seems to be a realtively new form that has not yet attracted the significant coverage in independent reliable sources that means it would meet WP:GNG. Please ping me if good sources are idntified.

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: How about this suggestion, the current article is draftified and the redirect is restored?

  • Delete and restore redirect per above, this is a non-notable neologism and also possibly promotional. SportingFlyer T·C 16:16, 15 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete and restore redirect per above. Not seeing sufficient coverage (or really any coverage) to justify a merge here. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 01:18, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
