The Aerodrome (poem)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Article contains one reference of an interview with the author of the poem. Not seeing the necessary referencing and notability to justify this being in article space by itself. Merging to the parent District and Circle does not make sense due to the parent also being woefully undercited. Hasteur (talk) 18:41, 3 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete. Not a notable poem. 1292simon (talk) 10:15, 11 May 2013 (UTC) Merge. The book seems notable. Merge this poem into District and Circle, hopefully one day the current problems with the article will be fixed. 1292simon (talk) 13:38, 7 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Um... What notability are you judging on? If you strip the list of poems that are part of the article, there's only a short blurb about the author and the only cited statement is that he won again later for a seperate collection of poems.  Notability is not inhereted nor is the notability of other collections by the same author a reasonable assurance that the collection is notable either.  This is why I'm raising the question of notabiliy on District and Circle to give those interested time to remedy the issue before I XfD it. Hasteur (talk) 12:29, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Woops, I missed the fact that the awards were for other books, sorry. Agreed, not a notable book. 1292simon (talk) 10:15, 11 May 2013 (UTC)

 * Delete or redirect The parent District and Circle collection has reasonable evidence of notability, having won two awards which themselves have Wikipedia pages. This individual poem is in a less strong position regarding notability. AllyD (talk) 05:59, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Redirect to District and Circle leaving the history so anyone can merge information if they want to. And as for District and Circle there's plenty of suitable sources. Please note "Heaney’s next volume District and Circle (2006) won the T.S. Eliot Prize, the most prestigious poetry award in the UK" and research these matters more carefully in future.
