xwiki vanity spam with pretty photos but ultimately a non-notable artist. The coverage is non-existent and what sources do exist aren't in-depth nor are tehy truly independent. Worth noting this has also been deleted 2x on eswiki (es:Giovanni Guida), 2x on itwiki (it:Giovanni Guida), on plwiki (pl:Giovanni Guida), on ptwiki (pt:Giovanni Guida), on ruwiki (ru:Гвида, Джованни) and while this isn't a reason to delete on enwiki itself, it's good evidence that it lacks the required coverage in any language.

Delete per nom, crosswiki vanity spam is not welcome. Creating editor appears to have been a UPE. —moonythedwarf (Braden N.) 14:26, 30 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

As for the coverage, the artist's works have been described by journalists and writers of the most important Italian newspapers (below I put the link).the artist is known in the world for this pictorial technique and his icon has been exhibited in many important museums, basilicas and cathedrals in the world by museum directors, cardinals and bishops. source verification. here are the links: • https://www.ilmattino.it/napolismart/cultura/coronavirus_illustrazione_artista_campano_virale-5170287.html • https://ricerca.repubblica.it/repubblica/archivio/repubblica/2019/05/08/salvini-e-di-maio-tetrarchi-guida--in-quellabbraccio-convenienzaNapoli17.html • https://ricerca.repubblica.it/repubblica/archivio/repubblica/2020/07/04/lopera-san-gennaro-in-grattageNapoli05.html?ref=search • https://www.corriereitaliano.com/cultura/arte-e-spettacolo/7050/unopera-darte-per-sconfiggere-la-pandemia/ • http://economymag.virtualcms.it/news/2018/05/03/news/il-viaggio-nel-mondo-dell-icona-di-san-cesario-di-terracina-1254/ • https://veryimportantlot.com/ru/news/blog/grattazh • https://rynekisztuka.pl/2019/07/10/egzotyczne-pojecie-grataz/ • https://www.republicain-lorrain.fr/edition-de-metz-agglo-et-orne/2016/04/15/sillegny-la-sixtine-de-la-seille-interpelle-l-italie • https://www.treccani.it/magazine/lingua_italiana/articoli/parole/parole_nel_turbine_2.html • https://www.treccani.it/magazine/lingua_italiana/articoli/scritto_e_parlato/dante_social.html • Annibale Pinotti, Artexpo.

Delete for several reasons. First off, the sources, both in the article and the collapsed list, are absolutely terrible. Secondly, only one work has gotten any attention at all; rarely do we consider an artists with a single notable work of art to be notable. Next, it's formatted with all sorts of nice images and very little substance, and thus would have to be started from scratch. Finally, based on certain marks we usually see, this is probably (although not certainly) paid editing. Bearian (talk) 22:17, 4 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. rewrite the text, synthesize the periods. The artist has created interesting works of art with a very particular technique.--95.239.26.38 (talk) 10:01, 5 December 2020 (UTC) WP:SOCKSTRIKE[reply]
Keep Edit the article. Use only the most authoritative notes, such as those of the main newspapers .. delete the other notes. The artist of Cesa has made several works that have had a proliferation in the world, so the page must be kept.--Lady of a times (talk) WP:SOCKSTRIKE
