Draft:Enrico Dicó

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  • Comment: Notability is unclear. I am unable to find any confirmation that his work was included in the Venice Biennale - the citations seem to be about a project in Milan. In searching the Biennale website, I don't find his name. Was he in the main, official exhibition or in one of the satellite events or shows that are held concurrently?

  • Comment: I can't really get this to a formal conclusion, but the entire article - would not survive being slammed with a scary red template. The entire article reads like a personal website promoting him, but isn't BLATANTLY promotional, either. The lead section definitely needs some cleanup, so you might want to read MOS:LEAD. Reading WP:PUFF, and WP:WTW might help you make the article in a more neutral tone. I hope this works as a review! ABG (Talk/Report any mistakes here) 12:43, 17 October 2024 (UTC)
