Does not appear to meet WP:N and Google only brings a little over 2100 results.  chris †  ian rocker 90  21:54, 19 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep. The Google test does not work very well for 14th-century people. But, as our essay on that test notes: "Article subject: If it's about some historical person, one or two mentions in reliable texts might be enough." Well, there are many more than that. The chronicle he wrote (Cronica dei fatti d'Arezzo) is indisputably an historically important work. The fact that he has an entry in a respectable scholarly encyclopedia should already tell one that this is a notable individual. --Lambiam 10:00, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Then I have a question, if he so damn important to the history of that commune for his work on that chronicle, then why does he only have a one line stub? Surely there's a WikiProject for that, right?  chris †  ian rocker 90  19:30, 20 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep Per Lambiam, it looks like this guy's work is frequently cited/historically important. Qrsdogg (talk) 20:10, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment - In the name of being fair, I'd like to point out the Italian Wikipedia does not have an article on him.  chris  †  ian rocker 90  20:22, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
 * It's interesting: each different version of Wikipedia varies in the amount of topics they have covered, and many have different notability standards. The Italian Wikipedia has less than a quarter of the articles that we do, so it isn't too strange that they haven't covered him yet. Qrsdogg (talk) 22:01, 20 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep or redirect -- This is such a minute stub that it may be better to redirect to an article on Arezzo or his chronicle. Its status as a substantive articel can easily be reinstated if some one can find a biography to enable there to be an expansion.  Peterkingiron (talk) 22:42, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep -- I've just expanded it slightly. Why not wait and see how it gets on? --Doric Loon (talk) 10:58, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
