Does not appear to meet WP:BASIC; has no WP:SIGCOV on his career and has been in CAT:NN for almost 12 years, so let's resolve this. – DarkGlow • 19:31, 2 September 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete Just trivial mentions. No in-depth coverage. Fails WP: POET Mehmood.Husain (talk) 00:24, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete fails WP:GNG and WP:NPOET.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 11:57, 5 September 2021 (UTC)
 * Keep. Likely passes WP:NAUTHOR or WP:NACADEMIC based on his faculty bio at Regis University where he is the current Assistant Director and Faculty Advisor for the Graduate Fine Arts program at the university; a post which probably meets criteria 5 at NACADEMIC. The 2011 win of the Colorado Prize for Poetry for his book of poetry would seem to meet criteria 4c of WP:NAUTHOR. Here is a magazine interview. I found all this in a very cursory BEFORE search without seriously looking, but I would be very surprised if an award winning poet wasn't reviewed in independent RS and a named assistant chair didn't have significant publications with some independent published reviews of their work. All of this to say, have any of the delete votes seriously looked for RS?4meter4 (talk) 23:31, 9 September 2021 (UTC)

 * How does "Assistant Director and Faculty Advisor" satisfy NACADEMIC #5. Is there even such a thing as a "named assistant chair"? Clarityfiend (talk) 07:14, 10 September 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete – the SNG invocations above are tenuous at best (NPROF 5 "can be applied reliably only for persons who are tenured at the full professor level", not to lower-level academics, while a single state-level award seems pretty far afield of the "significant critical attention" required by NAUTHOR 4c), so I'm inclined to apply the GNG. Since my pretty thorough search (Google, Google News, Google Scholar, Google Books, Proquest, Newspapers.com) isn't finding anything that could truly be characterized as significant coverage, I'm not seeing a real basis for notability.
