The result was delete. The "keep" opinions assert that sources exist, but do not cite them, which makes it impossible to assess the asserted notability of the topic.  Sandstein  14:01, 14 August 2022 (UTC)

Marxist–Leninist Revolutionary Party of Italy

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Small and unknown communist party without the slightest relevance. The page, devoid of sources, is written in two lines and merely states that this group existed. Scia Della Cometa (talk) 13:10, 24 July 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep. Some political parties are extra-parliamentary by nature, but still they deserve an article on their own. Sources can be found and the article can be expanded. I hope User:Soman, who started the article, will be able to improve it and let it survive. --Checco (talk) 06:20, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Articles are to be judged as they are in their current state, and this page is written in one line. Why does this page deserve to be kept? Is there any valid reason? If you are able to expand the page and demonstrate its relevance you are welcome, but supporting the maintenance hoping that someone else does a hardly achievable enlargement job seems inappropriate to me.--Scia Della Cometa (talk) 10:41, 25 July 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete as it is - single-sentence article, unsourced, no inherent notability. P1221 (talk) 10:10, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep. A Google Book Search finds plenty of mentions of this party. Unfortunately all the sources are in Italian and someone with language skills would be needed to expand the page. - SimonP (talk) 01:58, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
 * @SimonP Many of these sources are inaccessible or partial. Furthermore, from what little can be seen from them, this party appears to be only one of the many Marxist-Leninist parties in the 1960s / 1970s. But if the page is not expanded (and therefore no relevance is demonstrated), what is the use of keeping it in this state?--Scia Della Cometa (talk) 14:59, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
 * @Scia Della Cometa This argument is explicitly listed in Arguments To Avoid under WP:NEGLECT. If there's evidence of notability, the article should be kept. BrigadierG (talk) 19:44, 31 July 2022 (UTC)
 * perhaps I have not expressed myself correctly: looking at the sources indicated, I still do not find the relevance of this party. My question is: can the article be improved using the indicated sources? Personally they do not seem sufficient to improve the page, I have not seen almost anything that is not already written on this page.--Scia Della Cometa (talk) 20:11, 31 July 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

 * Keep. Article needs improvement, but sources seem to show notability sufficiently, just need translating. BrigadierG (talk) 19:44, 31 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete Despite the Keep !voters arguments, that sources may exist and that books may provide in-depth information, WP:NORG criteria for establishing notability requires multiple sources that provide in-depth information (Independent analysis/comment/fact checking/opinion/etc) on the topic organization and nothing that has been pointed to so far even comes close.
