Hello! Various updates and rewordings done, citations added, etc. I'm fairly new to Wiki editing, so I don't know how (if appropriate) to remove the tag about a stronger citation being needed for Astley as editor and MD, but I added a citation from Who's Who for that. Bloodaxe is recognised in the poetry world as one of the top poetry publishers, so there's no issue about notability. I'm not directly associated with Bloodaxe, so my input is independent - I'm not a poet either, but I teach Eng Lit among other subjects and I edit a poems and pictures blog. I hope my contributions are useful. CourtauldGill (talk) 10:39, 19 September 2020 (UTC)
Notability
[edit]I removed the banner questioning the notability of this publisher. Just take a look at the list of poets whom they publish. They publish larger editions of poets than any other poetry specialty house. R. S. Thomas, who had had small editions of his work published with Palgrave MacMillan, was amazed that Bloodaxe published his first volume with them at 25,000 copies. You can walk through the literature sections of any major university library and spot dozens of Bloodaxe editions on the shelves. They're equivalent in the 21st century to New Directions and Grove Press in the latter half of the 20th century. Pascalulu88 (talk) 02:53, 12 October 2023 (UTC)
