This is a non-notable biography. Sources are either the subject's websites or self-published sources such as blogs, with the only exception being the sabotagereviews.com reference which includes just a single paragraph on one of the author's works within a review of a collection of other works. The article was created as a draft and moved into article space by a new user (who just made enough edits to get autoconfirmed, in order to make the move), deceptively subverting the normal WP:AFC review process.

 * Keep As stated on the Wikipedia Biography page an article must be "significant, interesting, or unusual enough to deserve attention or to be recorded" and Kent's recent Poetic Interviews makes this so alone - as the project is completely new in style and approach within the poetry community (see Wikipedia requirement for creative professionals 2 - The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory, or technique). Considering the breadth and scope of the work, and the individuals involved, this is a significant enough piece of work within the poetry and literature community to ensure his relevance. Also, through the screening of his films, and the recent inclusion of his work on various outlets (podcasts etc) these showcase importance. Finally the self-pblished blogs are not just minor blogs but interviews on literary websites, and one in particular is a respected music magazine (God is in the TV) 2.31.105.116 (talk) 22:32, 31 December 2016 (UTC) — 2.31.105.116 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

 * You souldn't vote twice (or three times, if you are Minisixx, which seems likely.) Edgeweyes (talk) 12:07, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Keep Creator of the page was not informed of intention to delete. Also, with new information such as the screening of the St Day Road film at the Polytechnic cinema in Falmouth, individual has become more noteworthy still with this new secondary source.

 * This is incorrect. I did inform the creator of the article here:  https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:82.152.151.198&oldid=757577046.  Edgeweyes (talk) 12:07, 2 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete - a case of WP:TOOSOON. Article sounds too promotional and does not pass WP:GNG. Bandcamp EPs are self-released, fails the criteria under WP:MUSIC. Karst (talk) 14:17, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
