Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Umberto Calvello
Well this is certainly an interesting AfD-- someone nominating their own article!  I had some suspicions that he might be notable based on the fact that his infobox says he was awarded two silver and one bronze award for valor (though this was unsourced).  I checked around to see if I could find any contrary evidence pointing to the individual's |notability as a fighter pilot.  Calvello was a ''Sottotenente di Vascello'', which is a position just below Lieutenant, so that doesn't qualify him under  #3,4, or 6.  http://www.aquile-italiane.it/PILOTI%20Italiani%20nelle%20Guerre.html This Italian page suggests that ''some'' of the aces involved in that war were awarded Silver and Gold medals for military valor, but doesn't indicate who they were awarded to.  However, http://www.scribd.com/doc/69062285/AofA-089-P-varriale-Italian-Aces-of-World-War-1 this book about Italian aces seems to confirm that he was awarded two Silver medals for valor by the Italian military, and this seems to fulfill  #2.  The individual is further given http://books.google.com/books?id=Gun1oTVTQdUC&pg=PA529&dq=Umberto+Calvello&hl=en&sa=X&ei=5ojzTqmUG8b-ggfa2JijAg&ved=0CDEQ6AEwAA#v=onepage&q=Umberto%20Calvello&f=false some biographical coverage in this book in addition to the |significant coverage in http://www.scribd.com/doc/69062285/AofA-089-P-varriale-Italian-Aces-of-World-War-1 the Italian aces book, which would also support |the general notability guideline
