Fair use rationale for Image:Donald Allen.jpg[edit]
Image:Donald Allen.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 01:24, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

In the 1982 "revisionist" anthology, "The Postmoderns: The New American Poetry Revised" (1982), edited by George F. Butterick and Donald Allen. 15 poets were lost and 9 added to the new "postmodernist" "canon" of 38 poets - only 29 names of the first edition 44 were kept:
Jackson MacLow (1922)
Jerome Rothenberg (1931)
Diane DiPrima (1934)
Anselm Hollo (1934)
Joanne Kyger (1934)
Robert Kelly (1935)
JAMES KOLLER (1936)
Edward Sanders (b. 1939)
Anne Waldman (b. 1945)
P.S.: I have put some names in capitals, because I think these poets are still very obscure, even more so than the others. This is of course rather subjective.
For poets featured in Allen's later anthology, also see his papers/ his collections. (linked in the notes of this article)
