NN poet. There's a claim of winning a prize that I've been unable to verify.

Note that there appears to be a different person named Louis van Niekerk, an actor that may be notable. That person does not appear to be the subject of this article. The Dissident Aggressor 21:57, 21 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete for now as I found nothing better aside from some Books links and the other links were to other people. As a fellow conservationist, it's unfortunate to delete this but there's simply no improvement. Pinging Velella. SwisterTwister talk 04:52, 25 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete -I can see no evidence of notability or even that he has any significant environmental credentials. To be notable as a poet needs a great deal more than is provided. Velella ^{Velella Talk} 09:28, 28 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - I was surprised by the number of people in the news with this same name, but none appear to be this individual. Fails WP:GNG. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 12:30, 29 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
