Completely unsourced, assumptions and statements are backed my no facts, is by default all opinion βcommand 09:06, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. Book written by notable poets and published by a notable publisher. Issues can be addressed by editing instead of deletion. - Mgm|(talk) 12:36, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. There is plenty of factual detail. Please use templates to prompt rather than nominate in this way. AfD is properly about the topic. Charles Matthews (talk) 14:07, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
 * NB I added a number of references quickly. I suggest from now on. Charles Matthews (talk) 17:42, 20 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep. This article about a poetry anthology easily makes out the case for its importance.  I frankly don't even see the "opinionated" statements made out by the nominator, at least not in the version I read (did not check the history).  The summary conclusions of the opening paragraphs are sustained by the more specific and adequately referenced statements.  In literary matters, judgments of significance and criticism are allowable.  And, as Mgm points out, all of this would only be a cleanup matter if it existed. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 15:08, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Keep. An important influential anthology. Stumps (talk) 00:38, 24 November 2008 (UTC)
