Strong keep, founder of notable Canadian small press specializing in poetry. See discussion above re Unfinished Monument Press. As for "original research," nominator has track record of applying inappropriate tags in AfD discussions, and contents of article verifiable by simple Google search.

Delete as unremarkable. It's verifiable, but WP:VAIN and WP:OR don't really apply here. Applying incorrect criteria for deletion doesn't really help the case, but that's no reason to automatically keep an offending article. A simple Google search lands only 650 results.[1] -- Krash (Talk) 22:04, 20 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Seems to be a keep, per Monicasdude. Stifle 22:19, 21 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I'm comfortable adjudging this a keep. Again, one doesn't have to be a household name to be sufficiently notable; involvement in one of the more important Canadian small press houses passes my keep line. Bearcat 08:47, 25 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
