Non-notable individual. Fails WP:NPOV. References are not in-depth or non-trivial. A number fail to mention article subject. reddogsix ( talk) 20:13, 7 January 2018 (UTC) reply

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because Viola Carofalo is the National Spokesperson and the Political Leader of a coalition of parties, movements and associations (about a hundred among which: Communist Refoundation Party, Italian Communist Party (2016) and The Other Europe...) that will be present at the next Italian general election, 2018 (March 4, 2018). The coalition is Power to the People (Italy) and is one of the 5 formations that will compete electorally ( Italian general election, 2018#Coalitions and parties. In the wiki-pages of Viola Carofalo and of the Power to the People (Italy) there are all the references. Thanks.-- Delehaye ( talk) 20:15, 7 January 2018 (UTC) reply

  • Keep per this news search and meeting WP:POLITICIAN by being the leader of a major Italian political party as confirmed by multiple reliable sources, and it's only because my Italian extends only about as far as "una gelate per favore" that I haven't improved the article myself.

  • Keep a search seems to indicate notability. 104.163.153.162 ( talk) 10:39, 10 January 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Keep Though the article has been written in a biased tone, it passes WP:GNG. The subject has significant coverage. However, the article requires a lot of clean-up. Regards, Krishna Chaitanya Velaga ( talk • mail) 05:09, 11 January 2018 (UTC) reply
  • Keep. This certainly needs improvement, but being a leader of a political party is a valid notability claim if it can be properly sourced. Bearcat ( talk) 20:30, 13 January 2018 (UTC) reply
