Delete or merge to Pablo Neruda. One poem out of a large body of work, not itself so significant as to warrant an article. No references other than links to the poem itself. Geoff | ^{Who, me?} 19:07, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Merge to new article on Navegaciones y regresos or Neruda's odes - searches in GScholar and my library database don't turn up anything about this poem individually, and the events mentioned in the article (eg being displayed for Poetry in Motion) seem like slim grounds for notability. A "keep" does not seem warranted, so I want to weigh in on the best alternatives to deletion. Such a minor poem doesn't seem worth mentioning on Neruda's bio article. But, the book itself has at least one review for WP:NBOOK: [1]. And I found several sources discussing Neruda's four books of odes as a unit: [2][3] (this one cites several other works on his odes), plus two non-RS dissertations on the odes: [4][5]. So I think the book is a great merge target if a second review is found, or a more ambitious article on all four volumes of odes if not. ~ L 🌸 (talk) 21:16, 27 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Weak Keep. I'm seeing references specifically to Oda al Gato both as a particular work of interest for Spanish learners (1) and more generally in Spanish-language works (1 2 3 4. It's apparently a significant enough ode of Neruda's to be semi-regularly referenced on its own by even modern Spanish newspapers (though this may be due to popular fascination with cats), so I'm inclined to keep it as a standalone rather than to merge it. — Mhawk10 (talk) 06:57, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
