Failure of WP:GNG. Little to no sources about her other than primary sources and stat profiles. Similar case to Nausica Pedersoli. Paul Vaurie (talk) 08:02, 29 December 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete - no evidence of notability. If sources are found please ping me. GiantSnowman 11:07, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Keep per comments below, and article improvement. Good work by BBDS. GiantSnowman 16:11, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep - this is a very different situation to Nausica Pedersoli - the entry at the Dizionario del Calcio Italiano indicates we are talking about one of the all-time greats of Italian football. NFOOTBALL went in the bin because it was being misused to keep unnotable article subjects with one or two appearances (and WP:FPL was nonsense contrived to perpetuate that). But I don't think the intention was ever to facilitate the deletion of players with 71 international appearances for a leading nation, including at the knockout stages of five major tournaments! For a pre-internet era female footballer to be generating coverage more than 30 years after their last international appearance is in my opinion a signifier that we are talking about a notable player.

 * Keep - clearly an extremely influential footballer and an important figure in the history of Italian women's football. Looks like BBDS has performed a WP:HEY.  Spiderone (Talk to Spider) 14:36, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails GNG. Interviews do not help someone pass GNG. The Dizionario del Calcio Italiano(containing 2000 people including masseurs) isn't enough. Dougal18 (talk) 16:33, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep per BBDS.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 00:08, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep per BBDS, I can see the article being improved further. And the assumption that interviews don't help GNG is absurd! Those are key contributions to help establish GNG. Govvy (talk) 15:06, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep - Per above. Clearly was significant figure in women's Italian football. Thanks, Das osmnezz (talk) 20:38, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
