Thanks for message. To avoid repetition, please take the following as addressed to Torcini too.

Torcini said we wrote such a page together with colleagues... Politi was my mentor. Please note that an account is only for an individual, and must not be used for group editing. You have an obvious conflict of interest, which you must declare on the article talk page. Please read the guidance below:

• When you write about a person, you must provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that they meet the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the person or an associated organisation, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the person claims or interviewing them. Note that references should be in-line so we can tell what fact each is supporting, and should not be bare urls.

• Most of your text is completely unsourced, all that is confirmed is that he is an emeritus professor and that he's retired from Physical Review. If you write about a person, everything should be referenced to independent source, apart from publication lists. He's clearly notable, but claims need verifying

• You must write in a non-promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic, with verifiable facts, not opinions or reviews.

• Your text is has a promotional tone, well known for his seminal work... seminal contributions... a powerful algorithm... They are now a standard tool

• There shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections.

• ...especially when they are spamlinks to sales pages

• You must not copy text from elsewhere. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. We require that text posted here can be used, modified and distributed for any purpose, including commercial; text is considered to be copyright unless explicitly stated otherwise. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient.

Not reasons for deletion, but headings should be in sentence case, and, ideally, journal names should be written in full.

The fact that other articles have not been deleted doesn't help you, either they met the criteria or should be deleted as well. See What about article x?.

Before attempting to rewrite the article again, please check that you can find independent third party sources. It's not the worse I've seen, and if you want me to, I'll post the deleted text to a user subpage for you to work on, just let me know. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 15:14, 18 May 2023 (UTC)

Dear Jim, thanks for your quick reply.

Yes please, give me back the deleted text and I will see to improve it according to guidelines.

There shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections ...especially when they are spamlinks to sales pages

Incidentally, let me reassure you that my link to the Cambridge University Press (a highly reputed academic publisher) pages of the two Politi's monographs where an attempt to prove that these text do exist, not a spamlink to a sale page. But I will keep to guidelines. 82.50.65.128 (talk) 16:56, 18 May 2023 (UTC)
