Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Paul Thomas Abbott (2nd nomination)
he does seem to fail the  standard, but it isn't so cut and dried as the nominator states. Since about 1970, about half the winners of the  Newdigate Prize have Wikipedia articles, and before that the winners include Donald Hall and Julian Huxley. Likewise, Oxford Poetry, which he edited, has a long list of distinguished editors, including Aldous Huxley, C. Day-Lewis and Kingsley Amis. That said, I wouldn't support notability on that alone, but this is just as likely a premature subject for an article than a totally unworthy one. It wouldn't surprise me if there is some in-depth coverage in one or more reliable-source publications without archives on the web. If one were found, this should be kept
