Gregory DiGregorio: vanity, advert. The book mentioned in the article, Sequence the Cavalcade of GED, was published by Vantage Press, a vanity press. Googling for "Gregory DiGregorio" yields 10 hits. Wile E. Heresiarch 20:33, 6 Sep 2004 (UTC)

  • Keep: The book is for sale and is published by Vantage. For a poet, that's pretty good. Send article to clean up. Publishing a book of poetry with a non-vanity publisher is quite an accomplishment for a 44 year old. I believe that I have also heard the name before, but send to clean up, with a note to return here if cleaners are unsuccessful. Geogre 01:38, 7 Sep 2004 (UTC)
    • Publishing a book of poetry with a non-vanity publisher is quite an accomplishment for a 44 year old. -- are you saying Vantage Press is not, in fact, a vanity publisher? Is there more than one "Vantage Press"? Wile E. Heresiarch 02:25, 7 Sep 2004 (UTC)
    • Hang on. You may be right. I may have gotten my Vantage and Vintage confused. My apologies. I do think he's a NYC figure, but I don't have evidence. I need to investigate more. I vote delete on locally notable folks, even if they're in NYC. Geogre 02:38, 7 Sep 2004 (UTC)
    • Delete: Yeah, I got nothing when I tried to find more. He may just get his name on the radio there. Local figure, not notable outside of a very small context. Geogre 01:37, 9 Sep 2004 (UTC)
