 * His claim to notability is that he was a ...former concertmaster of the Teatro Comunale di Bologna.. but the article has been uncited for about three years. Off2riorob (talk) 21:36, 19 January 2010 (UTC)


 * Weak delete If the only claim to notability is the concertmaster assertion, and there are no references available to actually verify that he indeed held this position, then the article should unfortunately be deleted. --Jezebel's Ponyo shhh 22:00, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

 * Delete. Just to be clear, a concertmaster isn't a conductor or director, it's whoever plays first violin (I assume you knew that).  So it's not really an assertion of notability; it's just an assertion that no one in the Bologna opera was a better violinist.  That said, with my basic Italian I can't find any coverage, significant or not, or Mr. Adamo in reliable sources, just a variety of false positives like a Bolognese lawyer also named Giovanni Adamo; nor do I see anything else that would satisfy WP:MUSICBIO.

 * 'Delete. Thank you, Glenfarclas, I didn't know that- I've learnt something! Delete per nom and per Glenfarclas- simply non notable. The fact that nobody has found a source for it in all these years speaks for itself almost but that aside, his one claim of significance is not sufficient for inclusion in an encyclopaedia.

 * delete if the claim is true he's prolly a pretty good fiddler. But there are lots of good fiddlers. Ho sources, no blp.Bali ultimate (talk) 15:12, 24 January 2010 (UTC)
