Mario Facione

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable former mobster and failed politician. Article is little more than a long quote from a newspaper. Fails WP:BIO. Astronaut (talk) 18:30, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete -Just not enough coverage. The only paper I found covering Mr. Facione was the Deseret News with a grand total of nine article all written between August 1 and August 14, 2005 which coincides with the release of his book.  In addition, a Google News search of the book shows the same 9 articles as mentioned above.  With no additional coverage outside of Utah, I would have to say delete as just a local guy with his 15 minutes of fame long gone. Thanks ShoesssS Talk 19:55, 26 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. His 15 minutes may not quite be up yet, but I think Shoessss' has the right analysis.-- Kubigula (talk) 22:12, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete. Fails notability above any local level, not to mention now being very much out of date.  Would need a major overhaul to reach notability, and would need to drop what is probably not fair use of a newspaper article (which, considering how much is, used, might border on a copyright violation).Tyrenon (talk) 05:18, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
