Talk:Poets' Graves

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Articles for deletion This article was nominated for deletion on 8 December 2006. The result of the discussion was keep.

Hello there,

Poets' Graves is a website which has been chosen to become part of the British Library's permanent web archive. They consider it to be an important part of our documentary heritage and want to preserve it so that it is available for researchers in the future.

I realise that the page is a bit thin at the moment but I can easily add more detail in due course assuming that you decide to include it.

Poets' Graves is a non profit making site which aims to promote interest in poets, poetry and poetical remains. Furthermore there are already many links to Poets Graves from Wiki articles about poets. In some cases I have added important links relating to the graves of lesser known poets such as George Barker and Elizabeth Smart. Hopefully this will encourage other people to contribute more info to these pages.

Thanks for your consideration.

Do you have some reliable sources that document the notability of this web site? Please see WP:WEB. In particular: The article itself must provide proof that its subject meets one of these criteria via inlined links or a "Reference" or "External link" section.. If this site is an official part of the British Library I'd say that has a very good chance of being notable; but the article must document the fact using verifiable, reliable sources.
