This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because... Try checking in Google Books before slapping deletion notices on articles. --In ictu oculi (talk) 23:32, 16 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
I am afraid that I did, and found nothing that was usable. If there is something there, it should be sourced in the article. A subject can have a lot of Google hits and still not be notable, and I believe that is the case here.--Sue Rangell✍ ✉ 23:45, 16 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
Sue since you checked in Google Books then you saw that "Phan Huy Ich + poet" gets 171 results in printed sources, but you can't find anything usable? One of two candidates for the translator of the most popular Vietnamese classical poem isn't notable enough for an encyclopedia? Could it be perhaps that you're editing outside a familiar subject area? With all respect, do you think I should assess your Iowa school stubs for notability?

Please do not take the nomination personally. You may also wish to read WP:NOTABILITY to get an idea of what sorts of sourcing is needed for a Wikipedia article. Be well. --Sue Rangell✍ ✉ 23:57, 16 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
Sue, equally please do not seek to personalize it. You've just had the other nomination you made at Talk:Đặng Trần Côn removed quote :"Not going to speedy delete it because it doesn't clearly fall within the remit of CSD A7." by Tom Morris. In ictu oculi (talk) 00:03, 17 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
