Rome

You reverted my edit in the article about Italy. Your motivation: the comparison is among cities, and "urban area" is not a precise concept. Granted. Neither is "city", which a typical ill-defined concept. Italy's capital is the most populous commune in Italy, not the biggest metropolitan area. It is also larger than Paris (the commune) or the city of London or any of the boroughs of New York City, by the number of its inhabitants. Yet it would be ridiculous to say, or imply, that Rome is larger than London or Paris or New York. Administrative divisions do not catch the social and economic phenomenon of an urban area. Rome has many distinctions, but it's not the most populous metropolitan area in Italy; Milan and Naples are larger.

One little question. Why is it significant to mention the size of the commune but not of its metropolitan area?

However, I won't revert the edit. I'm in no mood to start an edit war. But I do suggest that you think about it and see if your reversal was justified. Pan Brerus (talk) 22:48, 7 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Your Edits at South Tyrol

Hi Alessandro,

thank you for your message. I am not sure which discussion thread you are referring to. The province is however triple-language in its status, therefore it is correct to use at least the original German name and the Italian version of it. Thank you. Gryffindor (talk) 09:42, 9 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

What you seem to be referring to is the name of the cities, not what the captions of the streets should be called. Where in the discussion does it state how the name of the streets should be given? Gryffindor (talk) 09:55, 9 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Alessandro, not a problem. I have left both German and Italian names in the image caption, I hope that is acceptable as a compromise? Gryffindor (talk) 09:59, 9 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I completely agree with you. I wish you a nice day. Gryffindor (talk) 10:01, 9 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Mussolini

I have had a go at understanding how to edit Wikipedia. It is very complicated! Anyway, here is a suggested change to the Mussolini article:

Suggested text, replace:

Originally a member of the Italian Socialist Party (PSI), Mussolini was expelled from the PSI due to his opposition to the party's stance on neutrality in World War I.

with:

In 1912 Mussolini was the leading member of the National Directorate of the Italian Socialist Party (PSI)[1]. Prior to 1914 he was a keen supporter of the Socialist International, starting the series of meetings in Switzerland[2] that organised the communist revolutions and insurrections that swept through Europe from 1917. Mussolini was expelled from the PSI due to his opposition to the party's stance on neutrality in World War I.

Italian Libya

Hello! I was doing some categorization work on Libyan history, and am rather puzzled by the existence of two articles and categories for what appears to be the same thing: Italian Libya and Italian North Africa. This is all the more puzzling since the distinction is not made in the Italian WP, as far as I can see. The issue had come up before at Talk:Italian Libya, but apparently nothing was done about it. Before merging the articles myself, I thought I'd better ask the only Italian I know around here ;) Constantine ✍ 19:49, 4 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Constantine, and thanks for writing, and for your mail of last week! I just came back from three weeks vacation (Karpas, I Polis and Roma Urbs). The answer is easy: in North Africa Italy had in the beginning two colonies, Tripolitania and Cirenaica. After the conquest of Fezzan and the appointment of Balbo as general governor, in 1934 the territory was organized as a single colony, named Libya, a name which was "recovered" from Latin by Italian geographers to denominate the territory located between Tunisia and Egypt, and that was already used after 1911, but only in a geographic sense and never in an official form before 1934 (in the guide of Italy of 1929, the territory is still described in two chapters as Tripolitania and Cirenaica, with a small addition about Fezzan and the Sahara oases). The problem is that I never heard the denomination "Africa Settentrionale Italiana" or ASI before: I am afraid that this is a wiki-creation inspired by the much more famous (and official) Africa Orientale Italiana (AOI), a.k.a. "L`Impero", established in 1937. Cheers, Alex2006 (talk) 17:34, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Hello again and welcome back (and I envy you your vacations)! I knew the administrative history, but is there really any point to having two different articles and categories? Would you not agree that one (for simplicity and clarity's sake at "Italian Libya") would suffice? Constantine ✍ 17:39, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Of course, there is no need for two articles, and Libya is the right name, also because this is the common name in the history books. One can point out the administrative divisions in the "history" section. Alex2006 (talk) 17:45, 6 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

St. Peter's Basilica

You are well known for edit wars alessandro57. Your reputation for creating discord and stacking users in your favor is well known. And though it is a rediculous thing- to keep changing a page and create an edit war which you started arbitrarily, I will submit for the sake of Wikipedia and the page itself. It is clear that you have a self serving agenda. 04:27, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

February 2015

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. While edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount and can lead to a block, breaking the three-revert rule is very likely to lead to a block. If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. Cpetty9979 (talk) 04:30, 21 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Lavash

I don't think I have anything useful to add here. Just note what UNESCO itself says about entries in the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity:

Takes note that lavash is shared by communities in the region and beyond, recalls that inscription on the Representative List does not imply exclusivity and encourages the submitting State when implementing safeguarding measures to remain conscious of the element’s larger cultural context in the region;
Recalls the importance of using vocabulary appropriate to the spirit of the Convention and avoiding expressions such as ‘unique’ and ‘original’.

That is, just because lavash is important in Armenian culture, doesn't mean it isn't important in other cultures, and it certainly says nothing about the origins of lavash (a subject about which I have no informed opinion). --Macrakis (talk) 14:30, 9 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Vatican City voting edit

Hi, You undid my edit on voting in the Vatican City and I don't think your reasoning is correct. Your reasoning: "Vatican is a state ruled by an absolute monarch, and neither men nor women have the right to vote". This is false. See the Wikipedia page for Vatican City, it states "The politics of Vatican City takes place in an absolute elective monarchy" the key word being elective. The Cardinals do vote and elect the head of state, and Cardinals can only be men under the structure of the Catholic Church. Citizenship here is not the issue, since citizenship in Vatican City is not required for choosing it's head of state. The issue is that only men are allowed to vote in the election, while women are specifically banned. It is important to consider the Vatican City State as an internationally recognized independent state here. I would consider moving my edit to a different place in the page, but I do think it is important information that needs to be in the article and have already considered my placement carefully. I will wait for your response before reverting my edit. I appreciate you leaving your reason on my talk page so we can discuss what is best. -Jon — Preceding unsigned comment added by Flessner89 (talk • contribs) 20:44, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Istanbul Pogrom

Dear Alessandro57 I am writing writing to you because I don't know how to access the talk page of the article on Uskudar, my only wish is that you remove the sender claim that women were raped. Because I was born in 1950 and have lived those terrible days. Yes Christians and Jews were attacked, their shops were lotted. But not their private homes. No women was raped. If the contributor insists o this claim he should please provide a reference. The only reference he is providing is the following:

Where in the book by The Mechanism of Catastrophe: The Turkish Pogrom of September 6-7, 1955, and the Destruction of the Greek Community of Istanbul, is there a mention of raped women? The contributor has an agenda. Just check his other contributions and you will see the pattern.

Translations

Hi, Alex, how are you? I hope you didn't mind my changing "desecrated" to "deconsecrated" without discussion – I realised that this was just a small error in translation, and took the liberty of fixing it on the spot. Do feel free to ping me if you find yourself in difficulty with similarly little-used words.

Apropos of translation: I noticed that although Santi Simone e Giuda, Rome‎, is apparently translated fairly closely from the it.wp page, there isn't any attribution of the source on the talk page. So I wondered if you'd simply forgotten, or if you just didn't know that the source for an interwiki translation needs to be acknowledged? The ((translated page)) template is handy for this. Perhaps in due course you could check other translations you have made to be sure that they too have attribution? Regards as always, Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 13:05, 20 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

question about Roma

Hello Alessandro57,

The reason why I'm writing you is because I saw you made significant contributions to Italian-related pages and are of Italian ancestry yourself. I was wondering whether you could ask me with this historical question regarding Roma. Do you perhaps know what Empire or Kingdom ruled Rome in 1688? This would help me alot with perfectionizing a recent article of mine which I want to nominate for GA-status in the very near future.

Alessandro57, one more question. I need to add the coordinates of the Santa Maria della Scala to the infobox in that same article. [2] Do you perhaps have any idea or knowledge as how to put this? I think I will be able to nominate it very soon after I got that fixed. Would be great if you could help me with this. :)

Moscerino Vituzzu

Ciao, vedo che hai corretto la voce Italian Levantine, ma non sono d'accordo su alcune modifiche. Comunque accetto la tua opinione in merito. Ad ogni modo, mi permetto di suggerirti il sito http://memoriesfromwiki.blogspot.com/2015_04_01_archive.html , allo scopo di farti "capire" chi sia questo Vito che ti ha contattato.

'sto genio era un altro "lta": la prima utenza che ricordi è "Juanit45761" secondo il quale Nizza ancora oggi è lì lì che cerca di passare in Italia. È un ispanofono che usa traduttori automatici quindi lo riconosci dall'amabile peculiarità che qualsiasi lingua provi a scrivere la mutila orribilmente.

Vandalism

The article " List of European countries by average wage " has been totally vnadalized by 46.118.143.110.The real numbers are just below the map.The map has all invented numbers.Can you restore it?.Thanks.151.40.69.231 (talk) 05:30, 18 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

LMAO!!! No, incorrect, I didn't vandalize nothing, just because you are Italian and you want to show that your country is "better" that doesn't mean it's truth, we all know Malta has a higher average wage than Italy in any sense, so accept the truth and stop hiding these facts. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kristijan Đorđević (talk • contribs) 15:20, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Stop hiding the facts

It's useless you keep on editing it with fake things, we all know that Malta has a higher median wage than italy, you change it only because you are italian and you want to look better, but the reality is quite different. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kristijan Đorđević (talk • contribs) 15:18, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Again incorrect

Well, there is no source that Italian average wage is higher than Maltese as well, but it is well-known the fact that Maltese average wage is higher than Italian, please don't hide these facts and search about it. Kristijan Đorđević (talk) 15:25, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Metropolitan cities

Ciao Alessandro, ho visto che su wiki sia italiano che inglese esistono le voci "area metropolitan di"; pensavo che siano di maggior valore informative I numeri relative all'arrea metropolitan piuttosto che quelli della città metropolitan, che comprendono le intere vecchie province con comuni spesso oltre I 50 km dal capoluogo. Al limite si potrebbero fare due colonne, una per "area" e una per "city". Che ne pensi? Mauro — Preceding unsigned comment added by Robur.q (talk • contribs) 12:17, 1 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I will answer on the Talk page of Italy. Alex2006 (talk) 12:46, 1 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I partially agree with you: it is true that the metropolitan cities are the only official administrative subdivision, but they are quite inaccurate to describe the characteristics of a metropolitan area and they are misleading. For example the Commune of Bardonecchia is 85 km to Turin so it can not definitely considerated part of the metropolitan area of Turin as identified by the Osservatorio Demografico Territoriale del Piemonte of IRES Piemonte that is a an institution of the Regione . The metropolitan area has not an administrative signification, but has a demographic, social and economic significance. As the metropolitan city of Cagliari, actually there is only a bill that the Sardinian Regional Governament has presented few weeks ago. But the bill has to be discussed and (perhaps) approved by the Regional Parliament (the Consiglio Regionale).

Canna (length unit)

Do you intend finishing the translation of this article? In English usage the m goes after the number, the comma is a thousands separator not a decimal separator. Maybe you meant a canna mercantile nearly 2km, but probably not? secolo, legge, editto, etc... Bazj (talk) 08:50, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hallo, and thanks for writing! Yes, I will finish the translation until tomorrow evening. At the moment as you noticed it is still in a hybrid state. Cheers, Alex2006 (talk) 08:54, 12 July 2015 (UTC) (moved from [[User talk:Bazj#Re:Canna)[reply]
Alessandro57, nearly there, "architectonic" is in the dictionary, but it's certainly not in common use, I had to go look it up. Would architecture be an adequate translation? Bazj (talk) 10:02, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Bazj, "architettonico" means in this case "used in architecture", i.e. construction industry. Moreover, I am afraid that your correction about Naples and Genoa is not right. In fact, Neapolitan refers here to the whole Kingdom of Naples, not just the city, and the same applies for Genoa (but not for Rome). Then I think that it is better to leave: Kingdom of Naples and Republic of Genoa. Cheeers.Alex2006 (talk) 16:00, 12 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Palazzo dei Convertendi

Great work, Alex. I've copyedited the first paragraph of the "History" a little, please check if you think it works. I didn't understand the principle for giving the characters' vital dates, when they're linked and the dates are available at their own article, so I removed some of them for consistency. (Perhaps adding them in other places would have been better.) Anyway, please change back if you think the removals were a bad idea, and if I've got anything else wrong. Bishonen | talk 19:09, 15 July 2015 (UTC).[reply]

Hi Alex, Nice article, really nice. Just one small quibble: The location section states that the Palazzo Torlonia is another "reconstructed" building. Are you sure about that? I thought it was one of the few buildings which survived of the destruction of the Borgo, which is why it's not quite as aligned with other buildings on the Via della Conciliazione.

I've been involved in the DYK process, and so I know the time it takes and the coordination required between between editors...well it isn't always easy. So I appreciate your accomplishment.
