Notability concerns. No external links or references. Poorly written, and seems to be advertising a website. Retiono Virginian 13:27, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Speedy Delete per CSD:A7. Non-notable biography. Does not meet WP:BIO requirements. --soum (0_o) 13:48, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Doing a quick Google test comes up with more than a million hits. Without reading more than a few sources, I believe that this can be cleaned up and sourced, which means that it could be kept. If I have time I can try to make it look a little better, but being a novice at editing, I might need some backup. sumnjim 15:45, 11 April 2007 (UTC) talk with me·changes[reply]
- Keep per Sumnjim. Although the article lacks attribution, the subject seems to be quite notable. I will assist with improving and sourcing this article when I have time. Feeeshboy 16:15, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - the article is terrible at the moment, but the subject appears to have been a published poet for many years and has been reviewed in mainstream pubs. --Mary quite contrary (hai?) 16:27, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - seems notable enough, just needs some sourcing and attention. User:Veesicle 19:31, 11 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment Well, you all better find sources pretty quick. ♣ Klptyzm Chat wit' me § Contributions ♣ 02:47, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, article improved significantly and is sourced now. --Cpt. Morgan (Reinoutr) 11:48, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep, notable and improved. Academic Challenger 04:48, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep - could probably have got past with a <prod> and achieved its current attribution.--VS talk 07:15, 15 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
