Talk:Trinacria (disambiguation)

Countries

In the first paragraph, this sentences talks about 'countries like': "...many European countries like France, Sicily, Crete, Greece,..." since Sicily and Crete are not countries (part of Italy and Greece), is it not better to change "countries" to "countries or regions", or something?

Untitled

As I have already intimated in the Talk:Triskelion page, as part of the Wikipedia:Wikiproject Sicily, I have started a stub on the word Trinacria, which has a few meanings, and therefore it is inappropriate that it be a redirect back to Triskelion (although the article clearly requires a link to it, which it has). In time we will discuss the history of the word, the former Kingdom of Trinacria (the name of the Aragonese kingdom that was formed immediately after the Sicilian Vespers and the split with the remaining Angevin controlled Kingdom of Sicily) and perhaps provide some more information on the symbol itself. ρ¡ρρµ δ→θ∑ - (waarom? jus'b'coz!) 04:12, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:SicilyFlag.gif

Image:SicilyFlag.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 11:37, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Redirect

Trinacria is a familiar name for Sicily, hence this redirect to Kingdom of Sicily.--Wetman (talk) 23:06, 26 July 2009 (UTC)

an uncertain metaphor

Native Sicilians, left breathless by the beauty of Sicily’s shores, likened and compared them to those of a woman.

Do them and those mean the shores or the capes (of the island and of a woman, respectively)? —Tamfang (talk) 05:18, 1 September 2017 (UTC)

Hi-jacked disambiguation page?

This appears to be a hi-jacked disambiguation page. Maybe the new material belongs on the Triskelion page? -- John of Reading (talk) 17:20, 20 January 2018 (UTC)

Trinacria is a name Sicilians give to their form of the Triskelion, but the word also has other meanings in the context of Sicily (an ancient name of the island itself; also another name of the Kingdom of Sicily following the Sicilian Vespers, but it was never the official name, it was merely used to distinguish that Kingdom of Sicily from the mainland former part of the Kingdom which also called itself the Kingdom of Sicily (but more popularly known as the Kingdom of Naples]]. Personally, I can't see why it can't be an entry in its own right, given we can track the word/name all the way back to antiquity, and it does have these multiple uses, but always in a Sicilian context. That's just an opinion - I did not take over the former disambiguation page. πιππίνυ δ - (dica) 10:03, 21 January 2018 (UTC)

Colapesce

The Colapesce story was added in 2015[1] While this is a valid topic (once it is based on proper philological references), there does not appear to be any direct connection to the article topic. --dab (𒁳) 12:54, 25 February 2020 (UTC)

I agree. Paul August ☎ 16:07, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
