*'''Keep''' See [[:Category:Lists of poems]]. If it won't fit in a single list, then as always just split it into separate lists. The size of a length is never a valid list to delete it.

**Absurd, just because anyone is welcome make a [[Lists of poems]] doesn't mean there should be ''this'' page. How would you split this list, were it actually somewhat comprehensive? [[List of poems (A)]], [[List of poems (B)]]? Dumb, still too indiscriminate. [[User:Reywas92|Reywas92]]<sup>[[User talk:Reywas92|Talk]]</sup> 14:27, 9 January 2023 (UTC) |

*'''Keep'''. Poems are so clearly notable things, and therefore this meets [[WP:NLIST]] [[User:CT55555|<span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS;background-image:linear-gradient(90deg,black,purple,blue);color:transparent;background-clip:text;-webkit-background-clip:text">'''CT55555'''</span>]]<small>([[User talk:CT55555|talk]])</small> 04:57, 9 January 2023 (UTC) |

**Wrong, just because a basic concept is notable doesn't mean any list of them is appropriate for Wikipedia. We have a [[Lists of books]] but no [[List of books]] because the latter, just like this article, would be enormous and indiscriminate.

* '''Comment'''. There was good reason to create this list in 2004. In 2023, it would make more sense to have [[list of lists of poems]], on the pattern of other articles. We should discuss a transition, rather than deletion. [[User:Charles Matthews|Charles Matthews]] ([[User talk:Charles Matthews|talk]]) 07:40, 9 January 2023 (UTC) |

- List of poems (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log | edits since nomination)
- (Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)
The list's scope is way too broad for Wikipedia. Mucube (talk • contribs) 02:36, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Literature, Poetry, and Lists. Mucube (talk • contribs) 02:36, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
- Delete Obviously poetry can't be contained in a single list, this is too indiscriminate to be useful. Reywas92Talk 03:12, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
- Keep See Category:Lists of poems. If it won't fit in a single list, then as always just split it into separate lists. The size of a length is never a valid list to delete it. Category:Lists of books by type shows an example of how often this sort of thing is done as well. Dream Focus 03:37, 9 January 2023 (UTC)
