Our "article" on Peter Mazzoni was created on 24 January 2011 by User:Mazzonicenter, as one of their two substantive contributions. (The other was Mazzoni Center.) I suspect the possibility of a conflict of interest.Above I place the word "article" in scare-quotes because in fact this is not an article. It is, in my view, no more than a set of notes from which an article might possibly be developed in future. I think it's better to describe this as "content".Anyway, almost immediately after creation, this content was tagged as lacking sources, and shortly thereafter, User:Wtshymanski wisely proposed that it should be deleted. The PROD was declined next day by User:Graeme Bartlett. I think Mr Bartlett's grounds for declining the deletion are that Mazzoni might potentially be notable.And there the matter rested. For the subsequent eleven years, nobody has added a source, or developed it into text. In fact, I believe that I have put more effort into this deletion nomination than anyone has ever put into writing an article on Peter Mazzoni.I put it to the community that we can't host totally unsourced content forever, and that this content is not an encyclopaedia article, and that if someone does in due course want to develop it into an encyclopaedia article, then this is not a particularly helpful starting point. Let's delete it. — S Marshall  T/ C 15:47, 24 February 2022 (UTC) reply

• Delete nothing easily shows this person was a notable medical doctor. Wikipedia is meant to have articles, not whatever this is. I know we could try to clean it up, but with no clear indication this person is actually notable we should just delete the mess we have. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 19:43, 24 February 2022 (UTC) reply
• redirect I deprodded because the Mazzoni Center was named after this person. But, this Peter Mazzoni page could be redirected to Mazzoni Center, with a mention of the person. Graeme Bartlett ( talk) 21:38, 24 February 2022 (UTC) reply
• Delete one hit in an article about Ray Liota in Urkainian (?) in news, random hits in GNewspapers and one potential hit in GScholar, the Peter Mazzoni Humanitarian award. I think the last one might be the hit, but it would need a deep dive into other scholarly articles. Oaktree b ( talk) 01:40, 25 February 2022 (UTC) reply
• Redirect to Mazzoni Center, which does appear to be notable. ~ EDDY ^{( talk/ contribs)}~ 01:16, 27 February 2022 (UTC) reply
