Marrily Runoona Kuzonyei
I doubt that this poet meets our inclusion guidelines for biographies at WP:BIO. The work indicates only a single poetry collection with no independent reviews. The source of the "poet of the year" nomination is this autobiography on poetsden, which I don't think qualifes as a reliable source. Sjakkalle (Check!)  12:57, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Only work is with Publish America whose business model is ''non-traditional'   Dl yo ns 493   Ta lk  13:15, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Nevertheless, they self-identify as a "traditional book publishing company".. --Lambiam Talk  17:09, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
 * There are varied reports about them, positive and negative e.g. . They print on demand. Book stores apparently must order and usually pay for copies in advance and the author seems to do their own publicity.  It may not be quite self-publishing - I think non-traditional is a fair enough summary.  One book with them doesn't make an author notable IMHO.   Dl yo ns 493   Ta lk  18:17, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. The book in question was came out this March and currently has no sales rank at all on Amazon. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  01:55, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete. Not a smidgen of notability suggested. And PublishAmerica is not only a vanity press, it's a vanity press with a bad reputation among other vanity presses. --Calton | Talk 02:00, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete per CSD-A7, no assertion of notability, book published by a vanity press. --Coredesat talk 04:41, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Although I have sympathy for emerging African poets, I'm afraid this really doesn't meet the notability criteria. Black-Velvet  13:49, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as per the nomination. --HolyRomanEmperor 14:12, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
