 * Keep. Notable ruins - destroyed circa 1435, and covered to present.. Note that Castel Savelli seems to be the common name in English (but there are a number of variations here).Icewhiz (talk) 14:08, 23 July 2018 (UTC) If the AfD closes keep - I'll move the article after the close (moving articles during AfD is messy).Icewhiz (talk) 16:42, 23 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep -- A medieval castle in England would probably be notable. That should also apply in Italy.  Peterkingiron (talk) 17:01, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep. Castles are generally notable historic buildings, even those that no longer exist. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:13, 25 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep. Sourced and expanded, no problem meeting . Castel Savelli is, FWIW, also used in Italian sources. It is maybe not easy to determine which one get the most uses, and I would be fine with having the article at Castel Savelli with an R from alternative name – or would that be R from alternative spelling? – form Castel Savello.

 * Keep. wp:ITSACASTLE (was a redlink, now is an essay) has been needed as a guideline to cover restaurants with "Castle" in their name, and anything else castle-like, as well as historic castles. --Doncram (talk) 19:49, 31 July 2018 (UTC)
 * See also Articles for deletion/Gorteens Castle, which closed "Keep", because, well, it's a castle. Various editors said that more eloquently, with more detail, but still, it's a castle. --Doncram (talk) 04:31, 2 August 2018 (UTC)
 * A detached castle (definitely one of this sort) would typically meet WP:GEOLAND - as it is a populated place (in this case abandoned, with or without legal recognition as the case may be - however typically with). While the castle itself is also a collection of buildings (surrounded by a moat/wall/etc. with outlying buildings for peasants) - it is also a place of settlement typically housing hundreds of people.Icewhiz (talk) 05:07, 2 August 2018 (UTC)


 * Keep. Satisfies GNG and GEOLAND. It is of exceptional historical importance. I agree that castles and other fortresses will generally satisfy GEOLAND. James500 (talk) 19:44, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
