Salvatore Di Vittorio

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

Created and maintained by who is suspected to be the subject, probable self-promotional article by non-notable musician. Italian article has already been deleted for this very reason.

 * Delete. Poorly sourced, no evidence of notability, apparent COI (self-promotion), peacock terminology.  --Deskford (talk) 15:32, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. Actually better sourced than others.  Two third-party reliable refs were added on the 3rd, and I briefly looked around and added this one today.  Passes notability requirements per WP:Music. I tried to clean up for neutrality.  ♫ Cricket02  (talk) 15:41, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - Could be a case of self-promo that could be cleaned op then? It is interesting, however, that even the Italian Wiki have voted him out: if he is going to be notable anywhere it is surely going to be Italy.  This one might get interesting, given that the article is actually quite sustantial and people are trying to source/clean it.  --Jubilee♫ clipman  16:11, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment - the only valid arguments for deletion are a lack of verifiable notability, pure original reseearch or a hoax. Peacock terms, COI, etc. are not valid grounds for deletion They are valid grounds for cleaning up the article. AfDs should not be used for forcing clean up or 'punishing' peacockery.

 * Comment - I am not sure if it is technically copyvio—ie which came first?—but the following website appears to have very similar content: http://www.amc.net/SalvatoreDiVittorio The other websites I have found so far only make passing mention of this subject as Orchestra x featuring Salvatore Di Vittorio.  Any better sources?  --Jubilee♫ clipman  13:56, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached.


 * Not sure how I missed this before, but the entire text seems to be lifted from www.salvatoredivittorio.com/bio.html and thus a copyright violation. --Deskford (talk) 18:51, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
