Please don't delete this page. The case has been very well covered by media and documentaries. I've added only one recent source, there are plenty others. CapnZapp (talk) 16:19, 11 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
There is a concern whether this individual passes notability criteria, and [I] want someone with more expertise in that area to review the article [..] [I]t appears to be a case of WP:BIO1E, as the only claim to fame is the potential mis-identity. I have quoted (and am now summoning) User:onel5969 who added the tag.
And actually I kind of agree. Would it help if we rename the article to focus on the mistaken identity, or the plight of the poor sap jailed by the Italians? As for wholesale deletion, I (obviously) disagree, not because I started the article, but because the case is rather well known, with several articles and even television documentaries made. In short: notability cannot be the issue here - the focus of the article, though, might be. Thoughts? CapnZapp (talk) 17:39, 14 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Beyond WP:BIO1E an even bigger issue for me is WP:BLPCRIME as even the Italians haven't convicted him, correct? I have moved the page in light of these concerns and this discussion. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 22:17, 14 June 2018 (UTC)
