Massimo Rizzoli

Non-notable martial artist. Does not meet WP:KICK as a kickboxer or WP:GNG. Being the brother of Patrizio Rizzoli has no relevance via WP:NOTINHERITED and considering the latter is also of questionable notability. Peter Rehse (talk) 12:55, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

I am also nominating the following related pages for the same reason. Also founding and being head of non-notable martial arts or organizations does not equate notability. Does not meet notability criteria for mixed martial artists either.Peter Rehse (talk) 13:53, 7 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete both Neither one has significant independent coverage to meet WP:GNG. As for being MMA "experts", they have a combined total of 1 win between them and no appearances in even a second tier promotion. The unsourced kickboxing claim, even if verified, would not meet WP:NKICK. There's nothing to show the martial art they founded is notable or meets WP:MANOTE. Mdtemp (talk) 16:22, 9 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete both. Neither gets anything in Google Newspapers. Both get a very little in Google News (some of it not RS) despite apparently having been doing what they do for many decades. What little they do get seems to be all very recent too. I'm not best placed to judge the quality of the hits as I am reading them in Google Translate but a lot are short articles or articles primarily about other people. Neither one has an article in Italian Wikipedia so we can't look for better references there. I can't see this being enough to keep either article. --DanielRigal (talk) 22:43, 11 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete both and Template:Rizzoli martial artists family. Per above. I flagged the template for speedy delete but we might as well consider the package.-- Jim in Georgia  Contribs  Talk  01:47, 12 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete both I found nothing to show that either of them are WP notable. They don't meet any SNG nor do they have the coverage required to meet WP:GNG. Papaursa (talk) 23:28, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
