This person appears not to be in any way notable. He served in the Italian army in the First World War, as did a lot of people, and saw action in several battles, as did a lot of soldiers. He appears to have received some passing mentions in documents of the time, but there is no in-depth coverage in the article, nor can I find any: not in Treccani, 0 hits in WorldCat, 0 hits on Google books (unless he wrote an article on Futurist art), 0 hits on JSTOR, 0 hits on Muse, 0 hits in Oxford Bibliographies. This appears to be a concoction of family history and wishful thinking, possibly with an element of misinformation (please see Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Bianco di Lierna for an example of a possible hoax by this editor).

• curiously always you? weird right?

Obviously you can see that the problem is not the article but that this user for personal reasons want attack me continuously and personally. Always and only he, unlike many others with whom I worked with pleasure and friendship in creating this articlewhich I think was right .always do with censorship.

Here you have all the deeply sources:

• Ettore Crosignati, The Memorial of Gino Polli, publisher Crosignani, Via Olmetto, 14 (1923–1940), Cubi, GdMI, Milan, Italy, 1926
• L'Artigliere, "Figure di Combattenti che scompaiono, Un Eroe del Vittorio Veneto" ("Figures of Fighters disappear, A Hero of Vittorio Veneto"), May 1926, Rome

https://en.wikipedia.org/Lierna_Castle a simple example, this article was not initially part of a copyright violation from external sources but a simple translation of a wikipedia article, has been blocked by him. Just because I wrote. I asked if I could translate Misplaced Pages administrators, and I have confirmed that the translations can be made of other languages. Maybe I would have to add in the code that was translated, but it was only in part and changed in the syntax. Well then I changed everything and reduced the contents, was no longer a copy, but my personal wrote. And I tried to lift the blockade of the page. He did not allow it to do with imperative and threatening. And you see well the page is locked to anyone interested in making censorious, and PROCURED ALARM for violations of COPYRIGHTS. THIS IS NOT RIGHT. --Alec Smithson (talk) 14:44, 26 November 2015 (UTC)

• Delete. Mid-ranking officer with no special achievements or notable decorations. Fails WP:SOLDIER. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:58, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
• Delete This is a very detailed article, obviously done with a great deal of work, but there is little evidence of this particular person's involvement. Also, the level of detail greatly outstrips the scope of the sources. The list of battles does not belong in this article, even if there were proof that he participated. One of the main sources, the Crosignati, does not appear in the main Italian union catalog of libraries, so its existence cannot be confirmed. There is something weird about the dates "(1923-1940)" on a book published in 1926. I checked the Italian sources that are available but none gave the kind of detail I find here. Basically, the article fails verification. Great amounts of it are unsourced. In particular, sources would be needed for the military awards, but are not given. The article says that he received many medals, but the turns up zero for his name. I find this article puzzling, but can't find a policy that would allow us to keep it.

• Delete this is yet another in a group of recent articles, challenged but invariably defended (although sometimes deleted or re-directed), which inflate and synthesize isolated factoids about a non-notable Italian family, location or person and list bibliographies and footnotes which don't substantiate the significance, history or connections alleged in the articles, e.g. Museo Giannino Castiglioni, Bianco di Lierna, Principality of Sperlinga, Lierna Castle, Lordship of Nanteuil (re-directed to House of Natoli). Apparently no one has found the time or means yet to interrupt this pattern, which continues to distract editors from improving the encyclopedia. If it can't be stopped, it should at least not suck up time from more productive contributions to Misplaced Pages. Delete. Swiftly. FactStraight (talk) 08:40, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
• Delete - it may be due to the language barrier but this article doesn't really establish what the subject is claimed to be notable for (not to mention some tone issues). Regardless, there does seem to be only a very limited number of sources which mention the subject, and at that the main ones are from the 1920s, which seems indicative of a lack of "significant coverage" to me per WP:GNG.
