 * Delete. Thanks for opening this discussion. The article's insignificant, while it was previously deleted twice for the exact same reason. Not sure why or how it keeps coming back, but as per our investigation within Wiki Greece, it has been revealed that several sock-puppets, associated with the author, are behind its creation. Hope this helps. Delete please. Glucken123 (talk) 10:13, 8 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete. I'm not seeing significant coverage in reliable, third-party published sources. I do see a lot of social media and other primary sources, publisher coverage, author-submitted bios, stores/ecommerce, unreliable blogs, and even some possibly reliable but certainly trivial mentions. There's nothing that meets WP:GNG, however. Woodroar (talk) 12:21, 8 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment Some (or perhaps many) of the references are misleading. For example, the Karen Van Dyck (editor of the collection Austerity Measures: The New Greek Poetry) article in The Guardian : Although the collection she edited includes poems by Livadas, nowhere in her article mentions him (but she points on poems by others). ǁ ǁǁ ǁ Chalk19 (talk) 21:37, 11 June 2020 (UTC)
