Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Backwaters Press

SAVE. The press clearly is considered very important by the Nebraska Arts Council for the advancement of literature in Nebraska, as evidenced by its numerous awards. The mission of the Nebraska Arts Council is to cultivate and sustain the arts for the people of Nebraska. The article as revised tonight shows that the Press publishes books by highly regarded authors and emerging regional authors. This press is a significant element within the Nebraska literary community. Furthermore, it successfully balances the mission that supports his state's artistic goals, while reaching out to a national literary community. Whether this article is or is not well-written and if some details here might be considered not important and could be deleted, that does not weight against the importance of Backwaters Press in the Nebraska community. The difficulty perhaps in finding secondary material only suggests that poetry doesn't often "make the news," not that the literary arts is not notable to the community and recognized as such. I submit that the article as now written does show that this press is highly regarded by 3rd party observers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Edward Dixon (talk • contribs) 04:05, 21 August 2015 (UTC)
