Advertorially toned WP:BLP of a writer, based almost entirely on primary sources with very little evidence of reliable source coverage shown at all -- out of 36 footnotes here, literally one of them represents a reliable source writing about her in the third person and even that one's a blurb. No prejudice against recreation in the future if she can be written and sourced properly, but nothing claimed here entitles her to an automatic presumption of notability per WP:AUTHOR just because she exists if the sourcing isn't there.

 * Keep The article is still problematic for the reasons stated and needs more referenced detail on her activities as an arts administrator and academic. But there's enough to indicate her significance as a poet. She has received 2 lengthy reviews in Jacket (magazine), one in Hyperallergic, and a short review in Publishers Weekly, as well as mentions (and praise) in New Yorker, Brooklyn Rail, American Reader, etc. --Colapeninsula (talk) 11:20, 24 August 2017 (UTC)
