Comment unsure of the awards, perhaps not notable. Would being the editor of an anthology book (that's been reviewed) fix notability issues: [1]? He's listed here as a notable anthologist [2] Oaktree b (talk) 22:26, 5 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Confirmation of one of the awards mentioned [3] and some talk about him here [4] but I can't open both items in my location due to Google not liking my location. Oaktree b (talk) 22:30, 5 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: I would concur that the "Naomi Long Madgett Poetry Award" isn't notable as searches almost exclusively lead to the prize's namesake. The Pushcart prize is a little more ambiguous, however I'm also inclined to say that it doesn't fulfill "significant critical attention" as most coverage I've been able to find is about the prize itself and not the winners. And, for what it's worth, the user that created the page has a username that is shared with the article subject. That, combined with the fact that the only edit on its history is the creation of the page makes me question if the editor has any WP:COI - AquilaFasciata (talk | contribs) 16:14, 26 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
