Land of poets

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Subject does not appear to meet relevant notability guidelines and lacks non-trivial coverage from reliable publications. Steps were taken to locate said sources WP:BEFORE this nomination, but were not successful. Note that this article was previously nominated for deletion nearly a decade ago on September 2015, where there was limited discourse and the outcome was speedy keep.

Reviewing the history of this article, there also appears to be a running content dispute over the origin and application of this phrase. While this may be a plausible search term on the internet, I do not see valid sourcing to support this as an article or redirect on Wikipedia, hence my recommendation for deletion.

Please do not hesitate to contact me should appropriate sources be located during the course of this discussion. Regards, Yamaguchi先生 (talk) 16:51, 26 June 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete an IP editor changed this from claiming that Chile was the land of poets to claiming that Somalia was the land of poets. Neither claim is well-sourced or has anything more than a WP:DICTDEF of content.  If there were content, it would go at Culture of Somalia (or Chile). Walsh90210 (talk) 01:21, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

 * Delete. Imo too trivial for its own article. Would be better suited as a passing mention in another article somewhere. Procyon117 (talk) 14:12, 27 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Weak keep There are some relevant sources on the phrase, El País, La Prensa (referring to the use of the phrase by President Salvador Allende), Icarito (La Tercera), Chile en el siglo XXI: ¿Nuevos recorridos artísticos, nuevos caminos históricos? ("Chile, donde el eslogan turístico reza 'tierra de poetas'"), Anales de la Universidad de Chile (used in 1861), Di/versos: Poesía queer autobiográfica, Crecimiento con equidad: discursos escogidos, 1992-1994 (President Patricio Aylwin), Escribir con estilo. While these do not go into detail in the phrase itself, these can be used as references as to the use of the phrase dating back to the XIX century. And I did not even use the Spanish translation in the article itself, "país de poetas" but "tierra de poetas". "País de poetas" gives several interesting search results in Google Books and Google Scholar, which should suffice for this article to be kept. --Bedivere (talk) 05:42, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I suggest renaming the article to "Chile, land of poets". --Bedivere (talk) 05:44, 28 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Delete This is a content fork of Culture_of_Chile and hardly a notable subject by itself. My very best wishes (talk) 22:13, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
