    WP:BKD A single 12-line poem from a book that in itself does not have an article, is not notable enough for a stand-alone article. The book and the poem itself can be found at Wikisource: Suicide in the Trenches. That's where it belongs. — Maile (talk) 21:56, 10 March 2016 (UTC)[reply

  • Delete - per — Maile Keep - Per Google books, Drmies is right, it seems notable based on the number of analyses and songs etc that have been written about it.  InsertCleverPhraseHere  05:27, 11 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • I hope the nominator will try Google Books, so they can see this. This poem is ridiculously notable in its own right: it's heavily anthologized and widely taught and studies. I hope this will be withdrawn, despite my Googly kind of argument (to counteract the non-Googly rationale); if not, I'll have to come back and cite anthologies, critical studies, and JSTOR. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 01:37, 12 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep - as Drmies says, there's lots been written on it. I am in the process of adding some of these references to the article. Nominator would be well advised to look again at the searches. LadyofShalott 01:48, 12 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep. Being widely anthologized and studied is sufficient. Nom should be withdrawn to avoid wasting further time. Bongomatic 03:16, 12 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Withdrawn from nomination: Since almost everyone here wants it withdrawn from nomination, I have decided to do so.
