Richard Denner

I've been pondering the notability of this person for a while and I can't really decide whether there should be a wikipedia article about the subject or not. There seems to be some claims to notability in the article, but I can't find any reliable third party sources to back them up (most of the current sources seem to be unreliable or edited by the subject of the article), searching for the two listed books brings up little to nothing, and one of them appears to be self-published.

Delete I agree with the lack of reliable third party sources. I will revisit this discussion if some(any) good sources are posted. --Stormbay (talk) 04:00, 22 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep The man is a publisher and a poet with an extensive bibliography, part of the sixties Berkeley scene. Many poets publish only chapbooks--there is a long and rich tradition of this. What harm does it do to anyone or anything to keep this entry?Wageless (talk) 03:51, 23 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
