This article is refbombed to hell and unfortunately few if any are useful sources - they're largely passing mentions, if at all, pr pieces, blogs or otherwise non-rs. I expected to find something better in searching given it's been here for 3 years but i can find nothing. It's also worth noting this has been deleted 4 times in itwiki and it appears to be further effort in an attempt to promote him and AIA. CUPIDICAE💕 18:49, 6 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

In my opinion, the article meets (GNG), and the subject warrants an article since there is objective evidence that he has received significant attention from independent sources to support its notability. According to my perspective, the Italian actor moved from a small city of Italy to New York City at such a young age to learn how to act. Attending the Actors Studio as an observer at the age of 18. Deepening his knowledge of the American realistic school (Method acting) represents one of the main factors that makes him "worthy of notice." Having studied with both sons of Lee Strasberg and collaborating for over 20 years with John Strasberg by bringing him to teach to his hometown in Italy in early 2000, few years after his sister Susan has passed away, is also a relevant factor. He later brought him to Rome, Berlin, La MaMa Umbria international thanks to Morassutti's collaboration with Ellen Stewart and to his own house in Northern Italy, which he has turned into Art Aia - Creatives / In / Residence, a non-profit international art residency. Also, his international career in theatre and film as an actor, even if he has played mainly supporting roles, in my opinion, provides recognition in the field as competing for the David di Donatello Award in 2021. As a theatre director, I believe it is notable that he has presented his work at the Cherry Lane Theatre, a historical theatre. Sources on the subject are verifiable, reliable, independent, providing independent and relevant objective information that can contribute to resourced material for those interested in cinema and theatre and specifically in Method Acting. I also believe that Morassutti has achieved relevance in his field by obtaining a degree at the National film school and having taken part in productions directed by Gus Van Sant or Ellen Stewart at the Cafe La Mama and other off-broadway shows presented at notable theaters. Concerning the sources, I would say that the topic has attracted attention over a sufficiently significant period, supporting its existence as a standalone article. Finally, I believe there is enough in-depth coverage regarding his activity as a cultural entrepreneur, especially concerning the partnership with Google Arts & Culture. He appears as an artist on their database as long as on other reliable catalogs. Regarding the Italian Wikipedia, sometimes I don't understand their inclusion criteria. Simultaneously, in Spanish, French, Arabic, Slovenian, and others, the common sense seems manifest.--Doratig (talk) 10:32, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You are more than welcome to your own opinion however Wikipedia articles require independent reliable sources, of which there are none in the article nor that I can find after an in depth search. CUPIDICAE💕 17:01, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete — unfortunately I don’t see how either NACTOR or GNG are satisfied. Celestina007 (talk) 17:18, 7 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep — I see that GNG is satisfied since there is objective evidence that the subject has received significant attention from independent reliable sources to support its notability.--Playfield (talk) 20:11, 7 February 2021 (UTC) — Playfield (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

Keep — I see that WP:GNG is satisfied since there is objective evidence that the subject has received significant attention from independent reliable sources like 1,2,3,4 to support its notability.--Fraisland (talk) 15:31, 15 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to our newest SPA. Please read WP:RS. 1 is a self published blog, so neither reliable nor independent coverage to establish notability, 2 is a user generated/aggregate review 3 is a podcast, so basically same as the first and the 4th is a listing.

Delete article is refbombed but no significant coverage. Fails WP:NACTOR, WP:GNG. --আফতাবুজ্জামান (talk) 20:11, 15 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
