Deletion of Francesco Perono Cacciafoco

Comment: despite all the special pleading and Wikipedia:Wall of text|walls of text in evidence above. No evidence of impact as measured by citations in Google scholar; does not pass . And as the subject's research seems to be on the |fringe side, we need mainstream sources that discuss it in order to accurately describe the mainstream reception of those theories, per ; those sources are not in evidence

Comment: Let me say, first of all, that there's no way I'm reading the discussion that's already here, nor will I be reading any subsequent comments, because that is FAR too much reading. So, the article itself is meant to be about ''Francesco Perono Cacciafoco'', an academic. As far as I can tell, he looks a lot like Lionel Messi, but fails the notability guidelines set out at  and the more specific ones at . So it's delete on that count. However, it's not really about him; only the article lede is; the rest expounds at length about ''New Convergence Theory''. As far as I can tell, that's not a notable concept, which means it's a delete on that score too, because we can't even rename the article 'New Convergence Theory

There is no indication whatsoever that either the scholar or his theory have made so much as a dint in the academic world. While it's understood that the notability guidelines for an entry for an academic are far less stringent than WP:GNG guidelines, the author of the article has already gone  in https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Paleolithic_Continuity_Theory&diff=634518666&oldid=625531141 appending it to other articles

Comment: I attempted to clean up the page last night but came to the same realization as Dougweller. The person in question ''may'' (and I stress "may") meet  but the article bears no resemblance to a standard WP Biography article. It is almost entirely about his "New Convergence Theory".  The citations are such a mess that I couldn't be bothered to check whether they would support BLP notability for Cacciafoco under  and the list of "references" are all papers written by Cacciafoco himself. And while I am trying to |assume good faith, I wonder about a possible CP:COI|conflict of interest based on the contributing editor's level of enthusiasm regarding the "New Convergence Theory
