I have carried out WP:BEFORE and added three references to this previously unfootnoted biography of a Scottish poet, but I do not think he meets WP:NPOET. Tacyarg (talk) 23:06, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete: I found a couple more pieces of coverage in newspapers from the 1990s, including a review/small profile of his work in the Paisley Daily Express: [1], and in a review of a Scottish poem anthology, a paragraph calls him out in The Guardian: [2]. This just isn't anywhere close to enough coverage to satisfy the requirements of WP:NPOET, in my opinion. Cheers to the nominator for doing due diligence here before nominating as well.
