Article about a poetry book, not properly sourced as passing our notability criteria for books. As always, books get their own Wikipedia articles only if they have some claim to significance, such as noteworthy literary awards and/or the reception of coverage about the book (e.g. several reviews by professional literary critics in real media). But the only notability claim being made here is that the book exists, and the referencing isn't cutting it at all: three of the four footnotes are mere directory entries on online bookstores, and the other one didn't actually lead to a piece of media coverage about the book, but instead redirected me to an online roulette site. And even if that last one was actually a real WP:GNG-worthy reliable source that's just been temporarily hijacked by an advertiser, it still takes more than just one acceptable source to establish a book's notability anyway.
Nothing stated here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt this book from having to pass GNG on its sourceability. Bearcat (talk) 16:50, 17 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The article is now sourced correctly and the previous link is now corrected. I've also added additional references. Please keep the article. TejaTanikella (talk) 18:51, 17 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
