These are the first verses in Latin of the Horace book Ode IV. (see : [1])
Unless the editor wants to give an encyclopedic discussion of this book or of all of the Odes, these lines must be considered non-encyclopedic. JoJan 19:52, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Delete unless it turns into some kind of article. Kappa 20:49, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)Keep, poem by notable author; thank you Arcadian Kappa 17:45, 12 Feb 2005 (UTC)- Delete, article as it stands is un-encyclopaedic. Megan1967 23:41, 11 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Comment the intial article was terrible, but it looks like this is a pretty important poem, so I did a little Googling and added some detail. It might now be close to stubworthy (though I'll abstain from the vote). We might want to consider creating a common article for the secondus and tertius. --Arcadian 15:30, 12 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Keep. a second thanks to Arcadian Courtland 02:43, 2005 Feb 13 (UTC)
- I withdraw my request for Vfd. I'm glad that the article now has been expanded. Horace, Virgil and Ovid are among the greatest poets that ever lived on this planet. But I'm sure a lot more can be said about the Odes. In my opinion, this article isn't finished yet. JoJan 09:37, 13 Feb 2005 (UTC)
