Keep. The article meets the notability criteria for individuals in WP:BASIC and WP:ANYBIO. JD Scott has articles about them in notable secondary sources, such as The Rumpus[1] and Electric Literature[2]. They have also received notable awards, such as being a Lambda Literary Fellow[3] and being included in the Best New Poets anthology. InverseHypercube (talk) 18:59, 26 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - they had a story recently in HFR, amongst many other reputable collections and awards as noted by InverseHypercube. They were featured last year by poetry.com; they were interviewed in Apogee. There's lots of coverage. And, Roxane Gay follows them on Twitter. Bearian (talk) 21:21, 14 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
