Article about artist which does not seem to meet WP:NARTIST or WP:GNG Speedy was declined because the "french version could be translated" even though the French version was made the same day with the same reference and provide no further indication of significance or notability. My searches has brought up several auction links but nothing to prove notability. McMatter (talk)/(contrib) 16:12, 21 February 2016 (UTC)

 * Weak delete Local artist with almost no coverage from another side, but coming from the pre-internet age this may be the case. Unless someone provides so real references from archives or libraries, I tend to delete. Arthistorian1977 (talk) 16:56, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete Bartocci was a marginal artist at best, but there are some newspaper clippings on the website dedicated to him that may provide just enough to pass WP:GNG He fails WP:NARTIST One of the reviews from the Gazet van Antwerpen from 23 August 1973 mentions that he is not well known in the art world, and describes his little store, where he sells mostly decorative items. An other review, from 1966 mentions that the quality of his work is very uneven, but that he occasionally creates "&hellip; as if by chance or by accident, a very beautiful, even moving, piece".
