Fib (poetry)

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Basically this article asserts notability but does not sufficiently establish it. The two sources are a blog and a NY times article that uses the blog and blog author as it's source. Fails WP:WEB and WP:BK. Since the article only mentions the one author, it's borderline promotional material. Delete TheRingess (talk) 21:26, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep -- A quick Google News archive search turns up multiple press mentions including two full New York Times articles. about these 0-1-1-2-3-5-8 poems.
 * So
 * that's
 * a good
 * reason to
 * keep this article
 * to read in Wikipedia

 * Comment: WP:BK doesn't apply, since it's an article about not a book but a poetic form. —Quasirandom (talk) 22:03, 10 December 2007 (UTC)
