A fact from Aldo Forbice appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 11 December 2021 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
Did you know... that Italian radio presenter Aldo Forbice was a long-time supporter of local social issues, including helping to promote an exhibition on the AIDS epidemic?
This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because it was a well known radio host. Most known programm. Can easily be expanded (see for example Italian article) --SportsOlympic (talk) 21:09, 7 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because... there are large number of references discussing the biographical subject. The article on the Italian Wikipedia is a good example of that. He seems to also have notability for his published books. But, additionally, here's some example sources on him:
The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as this nomination's talk page, the article's talk page or Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
... that Italian radio presenter Aldo Forbice was a long-time supporter of local social issues, including helping to promote an exhibition on the AIDS epidemic? Source: "Aldo also carried out press campaigns in support of UIL initiatives. Among other things, in connection with the artistic world, an exhibition was held in Perugia to finance Professor Aiuti's campaign to fight AIDS and to support the Community of San Patrignano by Vincenzo Muccioli and the "Incontro" Community of Don Pierino." (Aldo Forbice, a man of the pen, a man of the sword - Avanti!)
Comment only; not a review. Technically, it is a five-times expanded article; not a new article as it was first created in May 2021. Schwede6622:26, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It was deleted via CSD G5. I asked for a draft version. Creating a new article after deletion still counts as a new article. We don't count any and every past version that could have existed. That would make DYK and many other parts of the main page untenable. SilverserenC22:36, 20 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Cited: - The source appears to support the fact that he helped to promote one such exhibition. Either a source supporting multiple is needed, or the hook (and article) should be changed to refer to a single exhibition.
Interesting:
QPQ: Done.
Overall: An interesting biography of an interesting person! Once the issue noted above is resolved, ping me and I'll approve. ezlev (user/tlk/ctrbs) 23:16, 27 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
