I am unsure why my article on Trochaic Septenarius verse is possibly up for deletion? I am fairly new to Wikipedia but I would hope that it meets all of the requirements. The 'speedy deletion' stated that 'this page may be about a real person', not a living person however. It only mentions Secundinus, who has been dead for c. 1,500 years. If corrections are pointed out, I will be more than happy to make them - but would greatly appreciate a step-by-step guide on how to implement the corrections.

Thanks.

It is just fine and worth filling out with other examples. Kanjuzi (talk) 16:47, 30 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The claim that the earliest extant example of verse composed in trochaic septenarius is a Christian hymn is demonstrably false, since the form appears throughout in the plays of Plautus. Cynwolfe (talk) 15:44, 12 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
