25 Luglio
[edit]
- ... that on 25 July 1943 the Gran Consiglio del Fascismo (pictured) asked the king to assume military and civil power again, provoking the fall of Italian Fascism and the arrest of Mussolini?
- Comment: The article should appear on July 25th (70th anniversary of the events)

Great article Alex. Lot's of care and work taken into it. I can see that the hook is in the lead. Do you have a citation for the hook? I tried looking for the citation and the hook in the rest of the article but it was hard to find and verify. I believe once these two sentences:
The 25 Luglio denotes the events which culminated with the meeting of the Gran Consiglio del Fascismo of 24-25 July 1943, which passed a vote of no confidence against Benito Mussolini, and the subsequent change of the Italian government. These events provoked the fall of the Italian Fascism after 21 years and the arrest of Mussolini.
...are cited, I'll vote good to go since it is long enough and new enough. The photograph is in PD as well. Proudbolsahye (talk) 00:44, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
New enough. Long enough. Hook cited in lead for easy verifiability. Good to go! Proudbolsahye (talk) 15:42, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
