 * Weak keep - fails WP:WEB, but I'm not sure we should look at this as purely a website; it's really a loosely-knit organization trying to combat dishonestly in poetry competitions. It's received multiple, non-trivial mentions in major press, and has uncovered at least one poetry competition scandal.  It's well-sourced and NPOV.  I'm tempted to keep this one based on Wikipedia is not paper.  --Hyperbole 23:29, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep - Notable organization covered in multiple non-trivial publications, per Hyperbole. Torinir ( Ding my phone  My support calls   E-Support Options  ) 00:54, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep The coverage of Foetry.com in the press has not been trival, nor is it just a rehash of press-releases. Foetry.com has had a real impact on the poetry establishment in the US.  Bejnar 05:47, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep. Seems notable and well-sourced.  A good article, I'd say. - Lex 16:31, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
