Italian Liberal Group

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

The only thing we know about this group is that in 2006 it was an observer member of the Liberal International and that it was composed of a small and heterogeneous group of Italian MPs (exponents of other parties). Only 2 sources mention it. The page seems to me encicopedically irrelevant. Scia Della Cometa (talk) 17:29, 9 April 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep. This subject has relevance and is quite notable from a historical point of view. The GLI was for a long time the only member of the Liberal International from Italy. The article should be improved, but definitely kept. --Checco (talk) 19:38, 9 April 2020 (UTC)


 * Comment. The page is impossible to improve, since it is a mere group of adherents (from a certain Country) to the Liberal International. There are many groups similar to this one (Liberal International British Group, German Group of the Liberal International, Dutch Group of Liberal International, Canadian Group of Liberal International etc.), but none of them have a page on Wikipedia. On the contrary, even the Liberal International British Group's page has already been deleted in the past.--Scia Della Cometa (talk) 20:24, 9 April 2020 (UTC)


 * Keep – prefer to keep the article in order to improve it, the topic being part of the Italian Liberal diaspora.--Autospark (talk) 19:25, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
 * comment. As I have already written, it is impossible to improve the article, it is only a group of people of whom no initiative is known, this page adds nothing to the Italian liberal diaspora. Pages like this either don't exist or have already been deleted.--Scia Della Cometa (talk) 22:33, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I am sure the article can be improved. However, better a short article than no article. --Checco (talk) 09:14, 16 April 2020 (UTC)
 * If you were sure you could expand it (with relevant and inherent topics), why don't you do it? There are numerous groups like the Italian one, but none of these have their page, perhaps because they were not considered relevant. Even the Liberal International British Group page was deleted, which is certainly more known and relevant than the Italian Liberal Group! On the contrary, it can be assumed that the Italian Group of Liberal International is less relevant than other European groups of this type, since it is only an observer member (the other groups, except the Romanian one, are full members). In my view, the page should be deleted for total lack of notoriety, relevance and information about it, as well as for consistency with other groups of this type. --Scia Della Cometa (talk) 12:36, 16 April 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Keepi think politically there is a difference between the italian group and other groups to this nature. while individuals in other nations have alligned to support such a message, from what it looks like (albiet brif understanding of the issue) it seems as if the italian group is unique in the fact that [then] curent members of elected governemnt broke off to form the Italian Liberal Group. could be wrong, but if that's the case the article deserves to be kept.Epluribusunumyall (talk) 21:02, 17 April 2020 (UTC)
 * @Epluribusunumyall I honestly didn't understand the sentence "members of elected governemnt broke off to form the Italian Liberal Group", what does the elected government have to do with it? The only difference I found between this group and the others is that the Italian one is an observer member, the others are full members of the Liberal International.--Scia Della Cometa (talk) 13:03, 18 April 2020 (UTC)
