The result was No consensus, which defaults to Keep. Although it is apparent upon reading the commentary here and at WP:COIN that the "author" of this work has a conflict of interest, that isn't strictly prohibited per our own guidelines. I strongly recommend that the COI tag remain on the article, however. Keeper | 76 | Disclaimer 21:41, 31 March 2008 (UTC) reply
Fails to demonstrate notability as a "poet, essayist and painter" per Wikipedia:Notability (people), creative professionals.
Poetry appears to be small-press and/or self-published. Essays were in a specialist free zine, Takie Zycie. Painting credentials are insufficiently demonstrated, citations largely coming from Richard Tylman's own website; he may well have had a career as an advertising artist, but verifiability and proof of notabilty in this field requires third-party sources about this work, not merely examples of its existence. There's a general lack of third-party verification of this article's content, no references in News or Books other than self-published, and there's also a strong conflict of interest (see WP:COIN#Richard Tylman).
