Delete - no evidence of notability. If sources are found please ping me. Giant Snowman 16:47, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - @GiantSnowman:, he made 193 appearances in Italian fully pro Serie C from 1970s to 1980s do deifnityl has offline sources. Clearly was significant figure in Italian lower league football. Also I found [1], [2], [3], [4], among more Italian sources. Article needs improvement, not deletion. Thanks, Das osmnezz (talk) 15:53, 19 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
1 and 2 are the same source, and all the sources are very brief routine death announcements. Playing in the Italian 3rd division is not a claim to fame now, let alone 40/50 years ago. Giant Snowman 17:11, 19 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, passes GNG with references above.--Ortizesp (talk) 04:38, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - All of the available coverage are obituaries, with the Il Tirreno and Notizie Prato ones derived from an A.C. Prato press release making them questionably independent of the subject. The La Nazione obit is independent coverage, but similar to the Prato TV source it is extremely brief. Keeping in mind that this footballer played one season in Serie C1 (the third tier of Italian football) and nine seasons below that level, I don't see a justification for an IAR argument when SIGCOV isn't available (I'd prefer to see something covering him prior to his death).

Delete, per Jogurney. Derivatives of press releases are not independent, and significant coverage in general is totally lacking. JoelleJay (talk) 19:04, 20 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
