Thanks for your suggestion. I will like to know what the criterias as for "Nigerian Poets". Royal Chukwudumebi is a Nigerian teenager, who has over 120 poems in circulation in the American society.

Same as for any other poets; if she's not notable enough for an article about her in an encyclopedia, you should not be adding her to that list. --Orange Mike | Talk 18:11, 26 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Apparent advertising[edit]

Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Lists of books. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. --Orange Mike | Talk 18:13, 26 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
