Carl, Molly. "Neil Hilborn Delivers Inspiration." The Snapper: Millersville University. Millersville University, 18 Nov. 2014. Web. 10 Apr. 2017. <http://thesnapper.millersville.edu/index.php/2014/11/19/neil-hilborn-delivers-inspiration/>.

     This article is notable because it comes from a University. Though it does cover the story of one of his performances, it's not a source sponsored by him. Additionally, it is an article from after the performance happened, and therefore not attempting to advertise-- there is no ulterior motive.

Griffo, Megan. "Neil Hilborn, Man With OCD, Performs Heartbreaking Poem About Falling In Love, Inspires Redditors (VIDEO)." The Huffington Post. TheHuffingtonPost.com, 12 Aug. 2013. Web. 09 Apr. 2017. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/08/12/neil-hilborn-ocd-poem_n_3745281.html

    This talks about his breakout with OCD. It could be referenced in Reception because it talks about people’s reactions and connections to the poem. It can also be talked about in Performance because it’s how he first became known. It also led me to the Reddit interview and the Tour he went on.

Grimshaw, James. "'That's Not Poetry': A Response to the Response to the Response to Neil Hilborn." Right or Wrong, This Is the Road and We Are On It. Wordpress.com, 15 Aug. 2013. Web. 09 Apr. 2017. https://grimshawwrites.wordpress.com/2013/08/15/thats-not-poetry-a-response-to-the-response-to-the-response-to-neil-hilborn/

    This can be used for Reception. Most reception just talks about the content of the poem, but this one debates with another response to the poem about whether or not this is poetry. I.E What is "slam" and where does it go on the spectrum.

Hilborn, Neil. "Our Numbered Days." Goodreads. N.p., n.d. Web. 12 Apr. 2017. http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/24471629-our-numbered-days

    This article establishes a bit of notability due to the fan reception of his book. The entire page is fan reception and interpretations of the book, though nothing scholarly. Goodreads would be for a reception part of the book.

Kila van der Starre (2015) How Viral Poems are Annotated, Performance Research, http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/13528165.2015.1111051

    This scholarly article covers the impact of Hilborn's OCD, along with the legacy that it has left behind. There is some analysis of modern slam poetry, along with viral poetry. Would be used for both notability and verifiability

Laggan, Michelle. "Slam Poet Neil Hilborn Discusses His Work." The Triangle. The Triangle, 02 July 2014. Web. 08 Apr. 2017. <http://thetriangle.org/entertainment/slam-poet-neil-hilborn-discusses-work/>.

    The Triangle has an interview with Neil Hilborn and they discuss some of his influences for his poetry, some of his goals and techniques as a writer, and how he uses poetry as an outlet. He also talks a little bit about turning poetry into a job. 

Lim, Abbey. "Visiting Slam Poet Neil Hilborn Speaks of Passion for Spoken Word." Daily Nebraskan. N.p., 17 Nov. 2016. Web. 09 Apr. 2017. http://www.dailynebraskan.com/arts_and_entertainment/visiting-slam-poet-neil-hilborn-speaks-of-passion-for-spoken/article_4827128e-ac7e-11e6-9c2c-efc6fba66629.html

Lipsky, Alicja. "Last Minute Productions Presents Slam Poet Neil Hilborn." Last Minute Productions Presents Slam Poet Neil Hilborn | The Western Carolinian. The Western Carolinian, 22 Nov. 2016. Web. 08 Apr. 2017. <http://thewesterncarolinian.com/?q=article%2Flast-minute-productions-presents-slam-poet-neil-hilborn>.

    The Western Carolinian has a little more background than some of the other places I've checked. This article in particular talks about his works but also includes a paragraph that has some of his background and how he go to where he is. This article also talks about his stage presence, as it involves a performance he did at Western Carolina University.

Miller, Arianna. "Our Numbered Days." National Book Review Month. N.p., 5 Mar. 2017. Web. 12 Apr. 2017. http://narmo.milne-library.org/our-numbered-days/

    This is a scholarly review of the book, which was published recently. While it is done in the first person, it still shows both sides of a review and covers most of the book itself. Would be used for reception of the book.

""OCD" by Neil Hilborn. Easily the Most Onion Chopping Thing I've Ever Experienced. - [2:52] • R/videos." Reddit. N.p., n.d. Web. 09 Apr. 2017.https://www.reddit.com/r/videos/comments/1k0lqd/ocd_by_neil_hilborn_easily_the_most_onion/#bottom-comments

    I haven’t dug through all 800 responses, but Neil does a Q&A on here about his poems and his disorders. There’s also a similar thread, and between the two, there are over 2,000 comments.

Sneed, Brandon. "Meet Neil Hilborn, Performer of That Viral OCD Poem." Brandon's Blog. N.p., 02 Aug. 2014.

    This article discusses what happens after Neil's OCD poem. It also includes a cleaned up version of the Q & A on the reddit page which Neil instigated. It can be used to Early Life/general life information, performance, and inspiration for his poems.

     This article establishes notibility for Neil Hilborn because it's from a reputable source (Forbes) and identifies him as an influential young adult. The article is verifiable in that it is not a source directly related to Neil or the company he works for.
