[edit] Magie Dominic
A cut-and-paste job from the poet's own website. Does not conform to W:MOS. Victoriagirl 04:19, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
Speedy delete per CSD-A8 - copyvio of [1] posted in the past 48 hours.--Coredesat talk. o.o;; 06:24, 7 July 2006 (UTC)- Speedy delete per Coredesat. Alphachimp talk 07:06, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. The article is no longer a copyvio. It is, however, a stub. TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 08:12, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
- Weak delete. The copyvio is gone, so this isn't a speedy candidate, but she still doesn't seem to be notable. Her book has an Amazon sales rank of 1,512,470 (550,358 on Amazon.ca). --Coredesat talk. o.o;; 08:27, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
- Keep. Reworking to excise the copyvio has resulted in multiple writing credits and a section with award nominations, which both help establish notability, being cut [2]. I would consider a Foreword finalist notable. - Mgm|(talk) 08:39, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete - no assertion of notability. --WinHunter (talk) 11:20, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
- Keep - now that it is a copyvio. It needs some expansion though. --Kungfu Adam (talk) 15:22, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
- keep First, stop comparingg sales on Amazon, There are many other Canadian online bookstores and I stopped using them for my publishing company years ago. When I found the misplaced article in the Canadian Poets Category, I removed the whole thing and cleaned it up and put it in its own article. I was unaware of her own website Bio and tried to make it more neutral less vanity as I could. She seems to have some notability in Canada as she is a member of the prestigious League of Canadian Poets of which I and most Canadians know is hard to join. So my vote is KEEP WayneRay 16:05, 7 July 2006 (UTC)WayneRay
- Weak keepWhilst I am not certain of notability, I am prepared to give the article a chance and WP:AGF. -- Alias Flood 16:14, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
- Weak keep The article, as nominated, has now all but disappeared. Unfortunately, what is left is something that, at best, can be decribed as bare bones. While I disagree that the League of Canadian Poets is a difficult organization to join - and, therefore question the relevance - I am noow of the opinion that the article should be given a chance.--Victoriagirl 16:41, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
- Delete can't see this being notable. I don't think we should keep articles on the basis that they may possibly be notable in the future. michaelCurtis talk+ contributions 16:48, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
- Very weak Keep She certainly seems to be fairly notable in her field DavidHumphreys SPEAK TO MEABOUT THE THINGS I MESSED UP18:42, 7 July 2006 (UTC)
