Keep. Though small, the subject is relevant to Wikipedia. The article can and should be expanded. The article should be moved to "Lenin Club", consistently with what has been done with several other articles. As it was correctly pointed out, circolo translates into "club", not "circle". --Checco (talk) 13:04, 29 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Checco: Expanded with what informations? I have found only a few sources that offer no interesting details. Can you explain the reasons why this subject is relevant to Wikipedia?--Scia Della Cometa (talk) 14:12, 29 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - No WP:SIGCOV found in my WP:BEFORE in independent, reliable sources. There is coverage of the "Circolo Lenin" from after 2008 (e.g., this article) and also of an organisation of the same name in 1968-69, but neither of these can be discussing the party that is the subject of this article which was founded in the 1990's and merged in 2008.

Comment In fact it is so, there is no third-party source about this microscopic communist club, which clearly cannot be considered encyclopedic (indeed the user who expressed himself for "keep" was not able to provide any motivations).--Scia Della Cometa (talk) 09:29, 2 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. This discussion seems silly, that no one can find sources, meanwhile there is the fact that the organization has a different name in Italian which no one has searched under. For shame! I don't read Italian well, but numerous sources within Google Scholar's 28 hits on "Circolo Lenin" look like they have substantial mentions of the club, which looks like it adds up. Also search in general Google yields 4,030 hits. One hit is this Youtube video which seems to be about the 40th anniversary of Circolo Lenin in Puglia, like a conference panel or something, back in 2009 (it was founded in 1969). Looks like there is a lot. Tag for development, sure. And move/rename. --Doncram (talk) 00:12, 4 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ehm, the Circolo Lenin in question was founded in 1994 from a split of the PRC. Before stating that the discussion is silly, you should compare the sources with this page. In Italy, especially in the past, there will have been many communist clubs called "Circolo Lenin". And in any case not even the Apulian "Circolo Lenin" seems to me encyclopedic.--Scia Della Cometa (talk) 21:36, 4 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. While comparing the sources with in this page, there is no independent, reliable sources.
