Talk:Chicago Poems

Latest comment: 6 years ago by Klbrain in topic Chicago (poem) to be merged here?

Untitled edit

Most of the text here was lifted from Chicago (poem), which seems to have been badly written without thought to the topic. (Perhaps because it's a lazy cut-and-paste, ie, copyvio?) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Choor monster (talkcontribs) 2013-01-13T13:07:51‎

Indeed, there seems to be a lot of overlap. I've tagged the articles for a merge; I'll di it myself if nobody else objects or steps up, but it seems like it would be great to have someone more knowledgeable about poetry help out. I note there's a lot of text which is more appropriate for the author's own article, too. -- Mikeblas (talk) 00:49, 22 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

Chicago (poem) to be merged here? edit

  • Very weak oppose. I believe both articles should be expanded, and it is happening at a glacial pace, but since expansion can be done as one article just as slowly, I don't actually see any point to my opposition. (In fact, I'll do the merger myself if no other editor volunteers, as per Mikeblas' technical reluctance.) Choor monster (talk) 12:47, 22 March 2015 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose - I think the poem is famous enough for its own article. --Jtle515 (talk) 21:39, 4 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
Ok; given that no support in almost 2.5 years, I'll close the proposal Klbrain (talk) 10:33, 15 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
