Pesalaccia

 * – ( View AfD View log )

No evidence of notability. Only one of the "references" even mentions "Pesalaccia", and that one does not give any significant coverage. In fact the only statement in the whole article that is supported by a source is that someone named Vincenzo Pesalaccia, aged 50, emigrated to Brazil, arriving on the 14th of May, 1895. This article was written by an editor with a clear conflict of interest (to judge by their username), and it appears to be an attempt to produce a record for their family's surname. That is a perfectly good thing to wish to do, but Wikipedia is not the place to do it. (Author contested PROD, without giving any reason.) JamesBWatson (talk) 13:13, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete While surnames can be notable, in this case, as it seems to be written more from a genealogical point of view of one particular family, I don't see any notability. 21:11, 5 March 2012 (UTC)
