 * – (View AfD) (View log)

A lot of the information is a duplicate of Seamus Heaney, and the rest seems to be semi-political essays rather than encyclopaedic content. Ben W Bell  talk  08:36, 11 April 2007 (UTC) 
 * Delete; while Seamus Heaney is a major figure, the biographical sections belong in his article in chief, and a separate article on his political and aesthetic views, if needed, ought to be better referenced, less digressive, and at a better, shorter, standardized title (Seamus Heaney's politics, &c.) - Smerdis of Tlön 14:28, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
 * &emsp; Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached  &emsp; Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks,


 * Strong Delete This was obviously written with no knowledge or concern about the main article. I don't even think it was a POV fork, or a special aspect bloated out of shape. I think its a straight and unvarnished school essay. Why else would the basic biography be repeated.?  Ed. has made no other edits here. not for WP.DGG 05:32, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete/partial merge to main article, per DGG. a not very good school essay. Johnbod 11:01, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Essay. Non-encyclopedic. What's next: George W. Bush: His Thoughts on Different Vegetables?? - BierHerr 18:39, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
