Heritage
[edit]It's just a thought, but I have concerns about this heritage thing. Take Emerson Fittipaldi: His paternal grandfather was Italian. His paternal grandmother may therefore have been Italian, but she may not. His maternal grandmother was Russian, and therefore his maternal grandfather may have been the same. His mother was born in Poland. His father was born in Brazil. As Emerson himself has put it: "My father only has a little Italian blood". So to my knowledge Fittipaldi has Russian, Italian and Polish heritage in addition to his Brazilian nationality. Given Brazil's history (Native Indians, Imported African slaves and Portuguese colonists) 'Brazilian' likely includes other elements as well - why is Italian the most important one, and why is it important enough to put in the lead, ahead of any of the others? Happy to discuss. 4u1e 15:19, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
- No, but he also has Russian, Polish (both definitely) and very probably Portuguese origins. So why mention only Italian, and why in the lead (see WP:LEAD), which should be a summary of the most important bits? It's helpful if you sign your posts by putting 4 tildes (~~~~) after your posts, by the way. ;-) 4u1e 15:29, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
- Well, I know some people find names important, but they don't represent 'heritage' particularly strongly, and even if they did, you'd only be looking at as little as 1/4 of the man's actual 'heritage'. I have to admit I find the general obsession with tracing only the male side of a family fairly puzzling. It's as likely that a sportsman's particular attributes come from his mother as his father, after all! Anyway, happy editing. 4u1e 14:42, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Olek Krupa
[edit]
A tag has been placed on Olek Krupa requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.
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 article's 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. ukexpat (talk) 22:12, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
Derek “Rocco” Barnabei
[edit]
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Derek “Rocco” Barnabei, 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 Derek “Rocco” Barnabei. andy (talk) 00:20, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

Unreferenced BLPs
[edit]
Hello Visor87! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 3 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to insure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. if you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 97 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:
- Alberto Angela - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
- Christian De Sica - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL
- Massimo Boldi - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Disambiguation link notification for October 4
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Edoardo Stoppa, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Sarai and LA7. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 10:18, 4 October 2015 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Avoid copy-and-paste articles
[edit] Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Parco della Preistoria di Rivolta d'Adda a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Artigiano in Fiera moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Artigiano in Fiera, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please follow the prompts on the Articles for Creation template atop the page. ... discospinster talk 20:01, 3 December 2020 (UTC)
