This academic seems to fail WP:PROF. He is a ricercatore at the University of Genoa (that corresponds roughly to lecturer in the UK system). As such he would certainly not be inherently notable. Other clear claims to notability were missing, so I added a PROD. The PROD was contested by the original author, and Barbucci was suddenly promoted to "professor" (on the wiki page, not at the university, as can be seen here). The article was expanded with more vague claime to notability, but none seems to be substantial enough for meeting WP:PROF. (His institution does not make him notable, nor does the fact that he lectures and publishes scientific papers - that's just the normal work of a researcher.) -- Sent here as part of the Notability wikiproject. --B.
