Unencyclopedic subject, self-written biography, multiple issues, unreliable sources GenoV84 (talk) 21:39, 12 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

From the Talk page: This page has multiple issues that make it an Unencyclopedic subject, especially for being a NAU article.

It's clear that the article was written by Giorgio Squarcia himself disguised as a user, under the nickname of Gaio valerio catullo (msg). He never edited any page other than this.

Furthermore, there isn't any reliable source that could prove the introduction of the "docu-fiction" genre in Italy by him, which makes all this page even more embarassing. Basically, he has written his own biography to promote his curriculum vitae on Wikipedia; by reading it, you can see that Squarcia is promoting a grandiose image of himself and talks about it in a self-promoting fashion (he did the same thing on IMDb). In my opinion, that is the worst part.

In light of the fact, i propose to delete this page due to its unreliability and "ulterior motive" for the writing of it.--GenoV84 (msg) 23:09, 12 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Edit: The user Indiabongo13 (msg) too was created by Squarcia, and has made only one edit, which served as a praise for Squarcia; in the Talk page he says that Squarcia's biography is "very interesting", and Gaio valerio catullo (Squarcia's main user account) responds to him...self. It's embarassing, and ridiculous... sounds like a joke, someone that thinks "look, how great I Am!" and responds to himself "yes, how great you are!", to promote his curriculum on Wikipedia. I have nothing else to say.--GenoV84 (msg) 14:05, 13 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
