Keep If the claims that Bartolomeo Scala served as Chancellor, Secretary, Gonfaloniere and Priore of the Florentine Republic are true, which initial searches seems to suggest is the case, then he meets WP:NPOL. AusLondonder (talk) 07:51, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The beefy Italian article suggests substantial notability. See also Alison Brown, Bartolomeo Scala, 1430-1497, Chancellor of Florence: The Humanist As Bureaucrat 84.73.134.206 (talk) 18:40, 27 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and flag for translation from Italian. I'll grant that the article is in dire need of improvement, but the Italian article is much more substantial and cites some actual sources — and the base notability claim is a clear WP:NPOL pass. Bearcat (talk) 14:09, 28 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
