Not notable poet blogger Off2riorob (talk) 00:34, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak Keep. His works also appear to have been published in print and are available via Amazon [1], so he's more than just a "poet blogger". It may still be a delete candidate if no notable refs can be found, but I don't think the stated reason is sufficient -- Boing! said Zebedee 08:27, 20 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

    • I am thinking after looking some more that there is some notability and that I may of been a bit hasty but the article is in need of improvement, I am looking around for independent citations. Off2riorob (talk) 00:57, 22 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to POETICS list Delete see below It looks like all the ones for sale on amazon.com are self-published -- the listed publishers: Xlibris, lulu.com, and "Henry Gould". "Spuyten Duyvil" seems to be a vanity press.[2] He has had at least one poem [3] published in Jacket,[4] but we should have more than that. Doesn't look notable. -- JohnWBarber (talk) 11:10, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
    • If consensus is for delete perhaps a redirect or a merge of whatever relevant content to POETICS_list , is an article that Gould has a strong connection to. Off2riorob (talk) 11:50, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
      • Fine by me. I changed my recommendation. If he becomes notable later, the information in the history might be useful. -- JohnWBarber (talk) 22:29, 26 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Nothing in WP:AUTHOR gives notability to an author for getting a book published much less by vanity presses. There's simply none of the in-depth coverage in by independent, reliable, and verifiable, sources that Wikipedia asks for in WP:N. --Marc Kupper|talk 00:09, 27 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.

  • Delete His only widely held book, A glass of green tea--with Honig in 132 libraries, is a book where he is one of the three contributors to a biographical tribute to Edwin Honig,. Otherwise his poetry has minimal distribution. DGG ( talk ) 01:56, 1 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
