Talk:Harry Smith (poet)

Notability?
I'm not at all sure that this subject meets the general notability guidelines. He seems to have a personal connection with both publications listed (The Smith, and PresaPress: see here), which gives the impression that these works are largely self-published. I have been unable to find any reliable sources to support the text, apart from the one review I've used (which is probably not good enough). But I do recognise that I may have missed something. Modern poetry can be quite difficult to source and a name like Harry Smith is bound to bring up a huge number of irrelevant hits on Google. I've tagged it for the Poetry Project and will post a message there to ask someone to take a look.--Plad2 (talk) 07:35, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

He's notable enough to have been mentioned by name in the Fugs song "Nothing," which was what brought me here to look him up. David Epstein (talk) 15:25, 7 November 2013 (UTC)

Whoops, I withdraw my prior comment. The Fugs were referring to Harry Everett Smith, who already has his own entry. David Epstein (talk) 18:04, 7 November 2013 (UTC)

Harry Smith very much deserves the entry, he helped create the small press movement and discovered many talents, in addition to publishing a lot of quality work. But I agree that the entry needs to be much better documented. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.99.188.234 (talk) 22:33, 31 December 2015 (UTC)
