Draft:Davide Belletti

  • Comment: The subject seems notable enough, but several of the sources have issues for which I decided to decline the draft; a citation need for a pharagraph, two broken links and user-generated content (we can't count wikis and social media as proper sources). I added tags to point the problematic sources, as soon as this issue is fixed, contact me through my talk page. NeoGaze (talk) 15:58, 20 June 2025 (UTC)
