A category with the same name (Piergiorgio Odifreddi) has just been created; no need to keep a gallery page. -- Blackcat (talk) 11:13, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
Keep if gallery contains a selection of high quality images from the category. Delete if the gallery merely contains all the images that are already in the category. — Cheers, JackLee –talk– 16:15, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
- Indeed the gallery is merely a replica of the category, which includes *all* the photos related to professor Odifreddi -- Blackcat (talk) 18:41, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
Delete As Blackcat wrote, here the gallery contains approximately the same images of the category, so it's quite redundant. Furthermore, here the gallery doesn't show the images grouped in different paragraphs, with a description, but it's used as a category. However I didn't find a specific guideline about these situations and I think that if these images can have a short description and can be grouped in paragraphs, then the gallery could be kept. This probably could happen in the future, when we will have more images but now, in this condition, I agree to remove it. Even if there are a lot of categories and galleries in the same situation. (I want to underline that mine was a difficult choice between neutral and remove). --sNappy 20:59, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
Keep I agree it is a close decision, but the gallery has at least one interesting caption and one fewer image, so there is a difference. I would encourage interested parties to write captions for all the images. Categories, while essential, are a very sterile way of gathering images for viewing. Jim . . . .

Kept - categories are not a reason to delete galleries (non-admin closure). /Pieter Kuiper (talk) 22:18, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
