 * Delete. Not notable, does not pass WP:CRIME. - DonCalo (talk) 19:25, 18 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. Might have been notable he really was FBI top ten, but the source doesn't back it. --Lenin and McCarthy |  (Complain here) 22:51, 18 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep In future, nom, if you would please, check the links within an article for material related to the article's subject. The article is much improved by my addition of text and sources from the Lucchese crime family article. Anarchangel (talk) 20:35, 19 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Comment Lubrano still does not pass WP:CRIME. --Vic49 (talk)  20:54, 19 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete/Merge to Lucchese crime family. Seems that most of the relevant info is already contained there; if there are a few other points to transfer, I think they could be easily contained in that section.  Zujua (talk) 07:02, 20 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Of the seven sentences in the second paragraph, only the fourth is covered at the Lucchese article, which is already a massive 137K, see WP:SPLIT and WP:SPINOUT. Anarchangel (talk) 21:41, 20 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, it seems like a couple of those lines are actually more about Mazzarella than Lubrano. But in any event, I think you may be able to make the case that WP:CRIME doesn't adequately cover this situation as he is not most notable for the crimes he committed, but rather that his position as a Capo of a major family makes him notable.  However, he just doesn't seem to have substantial enough of a record to justify having his own article.  And I think you're right that the Lucchese crime family article is quite large already, but if it were to be split up, it would probably best be split into sections broader than giving each member of the family their own page--maybe one page for all "Current family members" to which pages like this could redirect?

 * Comment I like your idea about splitting up the Lucchese crime family article into a new article for current Lucchese crime family mobsters. Each mobster who does not pass WP:Crime could have his own section.--Vic49 (talk)  01:00, 22 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Keep per WP:HEY.In its current state the article appears encyclopedic and a legitimate spinout from the Lucchese family article. Cavarrone (talk) 06:58, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep per WP:HEY. also per WP:GNG--BabbaQ (talk) 15:42, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Keep - Being on the FBI's most wanted list is definitely notable. Just needs further expansion. --Ted87 (talk) 18:30, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
 * It should be noted that he was "Wanted" by the FBI, not to be confused with Ten Most Wanted...There are lots, and lots of people "wanted" by the FBI. Take for example the results for New York State.  Zujua (talk) 19:14, 22 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Delete - article is about Tanglewood Boys. --SnakeDragon (talk) 21:24, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
