:Thank you, Lucifero4, for creating this article on a clearly notable WWI and WWII Italian soldier and statesman. The best thing about Wikipedia is finding articles about interesting people. I am reading some newspaper articles and ordered a book about Raffaele Cadorna, Sr., Luigi Cadorna, and Raffaele Cadorna, Jr. I have read very little about the Italian resistance movement in WWII, although I knew the general gist of it. After reading your brief article on Cadorna, Jr., I am inspired to read a lot more about this movement and the volunteers who became the post-WWII leaders of Italy. It appears I will have to brush up on my Italian, which I have not spoken since childhood, because there is little information in English. Thank you for taking the time to write this one article. --[[Special:Contributions/69.226.108.255|69.226.108.255]] ([[User talk:69.226.108.255|talk]]) 22:10, 17 March 2008 (UTC) |

File:Crystal 128 gadu.png Welcome, Lucifero4!
Hello, Lucifero4, and welcome to Wikipedia! I'm Ageo020, one of the thousands of editors here at Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few good links for newcomers:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- Tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Manual of Style
- Fun stuff...
{{helpme}}
here on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! --Agεθ020 (ΔT • ФC) 21:42, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
Please don't remove cleanup tags without addressing them. This could be considered vandalism. User:Zoe|(talk) 19:29, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
Italian air marshal category
I have proposed that Category:Italian air marshal be merged into Category:Marshals of the air force. If you want to comment then you can go to Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2007_January_31#Category:Italian_air_marshal. Greenshed 23:03, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
AfD nomination of Novi Ligure Homicide
An editor has nominated Novi Ligure Homicide, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not"). Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Novi Ligure Homicide and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you. Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it.

Copyediting
Cue the Strings 17:11, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
Reverting edits
Can you please look at the rationale provided before you undo edits? I apologize for reverting several of your edits, as I know they were made in good faith, but many of them were either irrelevant to the article (how are the activities of Davis Elkins' daughter relevant to Elkins himself?) or difficult to comprehend because they were written in broken English. Please look at the copyediting notice directly above this message. I'd be happy to continue discussion on my talk page if you have any questions, but I'd like to ask you to consider the strength of your edits to these articles instead of simply reverting them back. Thanks.
Edited to add: Just read my message over, and I apologize if any of this came off the wrong way. I appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, especially the new articles you've created, but I think it may be more helpful for everyone if you provide an edit summary with your edits. That way, people can see why you've chosen to add certain information or why it should be considered important. We've disagreed on a couple of your edits, and it would probably be more productive to communicate and compromise instead of reverting them back and forth. An edit summary would really help clear things up. Again, I hope my comments haven't discouraged you in any way from contributing. Happy editing! Cue the Strings 22:20, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
An Offer of Help
Ciao, Lucifero! My name is Peter, and I have read several of your articles. I like most of them very much. Your contributions really help me, an English-speaker, understand more about Bergamo and Lombardy and Italy. (A wise man's advice: write what you know about.) I speak Italian a little, but my Italian is even worse than your English. Ha! The offer I make is this: because I understand Italian quite well, I feel comfortable in saying that I usually understand what you are trying to say in English, even though what you have written is not of a high quality. I can improve it, and you can tell me if the "improvement" is, indeed, what you mean to say. Again, I cannot write as well in Italian as you do in English, so, please, do not be insulted by this offer. I respect you. I think we might make a good team. What do you think?

Our Lady of the Ghiaie
Yes, I am interested in this. It reminds me so much of Fatima, but I never heard of it before. To me, it is not so important what the church says about Ghiaie. Even if it was not a real apparition of the Blessed Mother, it is an interesting case of collective hallucination (maybe a solar phenomenon or visitors from who-knows-where), a case involving a forced confession, etc. I think, some day there should be an article about this. Maybe you aren't the one to do it, maybe not me either, but someone should write it. It's a good topic. (By the way, is there any relation between Adelaide Roncalli and another famous Roncalli from your part of the world?)
Two other things I wanted to say to you, Lucifero: first, did you look at the Libertà condizionata edits? I have some questions. Is my interpretation of the requirements for libertà correct? (Especially condition n° 3.) Also, how does a mafia guy (tipo mafioso) prove to the court that he has stopped being a mafia guy? To me, this is an interesting question.
The last thing: I do not suggest that you write articles in Italian and send them to me for translation. I suggest only that you send me a message if you have trouble expressing something difficult, and I will try to help. Or, maybe you write an article and you want me, a sympathetic reader, to edit it first (before the tigers tear it apart, -- not because it should be torn apart, but because they are tigers, and they think this is required of them.) You understand, I think. ArrivederLa, PeterHuntington 00:46, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Ammiraglio di Divisione, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template
{{hangon}}
to the page and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Mystytopia (talk) 11:46, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
- I've redirected the page. To create a redirect, use
#REDIRECT [[target]]
replacing "target" with wherever you want it to redirect. Mystytopia (talk) 11:49, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
AfD nomination of People of Mixed Italian/African descent but not from Italy
People of Mixed Italian/African descent but not from Italy, an article you created, has been nominated for deletion. We appreciate your contributions. However, an editor does not feel that People of Mixed Italian/African descent but not from Italy satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in the nomination space (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and the Wikipedia deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/People of Mixed Italian/African descent but not from Italy and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~). You are free to edit the content of People of Mixed Italian/African descent but not from Italy during the discussion but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion discussion. Thank you. Ridernyc 21:11, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
Moves
Hi, could you please use Wikipedia:Requested moves when you want to move an article that has already been moved with a move request, like Bolzano, Merano, Bruneck and Brixen?--Supparluca 05:37, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
Nonsense of Corte d'Assise
Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Corte d'Assise, by another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Corte d'Assise provides no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent.
To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Corte d'Assise, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Renaming articles
Hi I see that a few months ago you renamed Talk:Brixen to Talk:Brixen - Bressanone even though Brixen - Bressanone was just a redirect to the main article at Brixen. Please don't move Talk pages separately from their articles - it really messes up the system. And more generally, it's a bad idea to rename an article without starting a discussion first, unless it's something really trivial like the wrong capitalisation. There's all sorts of official guidelines on moving articles to different names, see WP:MOVE - if in doubt, ask, perhaps at the WikiProject Italy talk page. Best wishes and happy editing.

Raffaele Cadorna jr
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Raffaele Cadorna jr, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}}
to the top of Raffaele Cadorna jr. — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 16:46, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of Sottotenente
A tag has been placed on Sottotenente, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 01:07, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

- Hello, Lucifero4. Please stop recreating deleted redirects, especially those in Italian. If someone speaks Italian, and is searching for a specific article, there is the Italian Wikipedia. This is, of course, the English Wikipedia, and so everything should be in the English language. Foreign language sources can be used if English language ones aren't available, but it's discouraged. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me. You can reply here, I'll see it if you do. Regards, Parsecboy (talk) 01:41, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

Just FYI
You've been mentioned at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Lucifero4. In particular, at least one user has expressed concern regarding some redirects you've previously created, and is saying you've previously been unresponsive to requests for explanations. You may want to comment on this thread; at any rate, I highly encourage you to be reasonably responsive to messages left on your talk page. – Luna Santin (talk) 04:11, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
