June 2012 edit

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Red hair, please cite a reliable source for your addition. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. See Wikipedia:Citing sources for how to cite sources, and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

Notability of Ludwig-Karl Ratschiller edit

I am glad you want to discuss it. My concern is that simply being a partisan does not make one a notable; there were over a million of partisans in WWII and most of them were not notable. And as currently written, the article does not imply that LKR did anything beyond, well, being a partisan. You say "Ratschiller is the only German WWII partisan in Italy". First, the article calls him Italian, not German; second, even if this is true - being the only Russian baker in the Czech republic does not make one notable. You write: "He should be in the Guinness Book of Records for deserting 3 times from 2 different armies". Is he? That would make him notable. Otherwise we veer towards WP:OR. I am sorry for being difficult, but the article needs help. The offline and non-English sources you cite may suggest he is notable due to coverage of him, but this is not discussed in the article. If the sources explain what makes him unique and remarkable, could you expand the article to make this clear? Did he inspire others during of after the war, perhaps? Was he seen as a hero afterwards and given honors? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 00:25, 22 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

Again, we have to respect WP:N. If you read German or Italian (you may want to add WP:BABEL userboxes to your userpage), please see if there is anything in those sources to help make the case he is notable. I expect there may be something in non-English sources, but unless you can write it out or find somebody who will, we have a problem that threatens the article with deletion. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 18:24, 22 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

Disambiguation link notification for September 4 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Brera (district of Milan), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Lombard (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

February 2014 edit

Re:Rome edit

Hallo,
and thanks for writing to my talk page! I found your edit problematic because you applied a concept ("urban area") to define another (the city): since Milan's urban area is larger than Rome's,than the city of Milan is larger than the city of Rome. But in Italy (and the wikipedia articles, also the one about Milan, reflect it), statistically a city is considered equivalent to a "comune", not to its urban or metropolitan area, which unfortunately have not been yet univocally defined in a statistical way (see the talk page of Roma (and its archives) on wiki:it about it. Rome is considered to be the largest city (as area and number of inhabitants), because it is the largest comune. You can check for example the "Calendario Atlante De Agostini", which is the best Italian reference about geography, about that. BTW, the same is largely valid also outside Italy (check here): the city of Paris has 2.2 millions inhabitants, not 12 millions, as its metropolitan area has (check [[1]]). Why in Italy (and abroad) do we consider significant the comune and not its urban area? I suppose because the latter is only (still) a fuzzy (look at the numerous lists of cities in wikipedia according to the different definitions about it) statistical concept, while the former is firmly rooted in 2-3000 years of history, is an administrative unit, has a flag, its soccer team(s), and so on.

About my revert, at Wikipedia there is the Bold, revert, discuss cycle. If someone reverts your edit, you have not to take it personally (I am reverted often too), but bring your opinion to the talk page, and starts a discussion (as you did). A greeting to Milan (a beautiful city, where I try to go at east once each year) from the Helvetia Felix :-) Alex2006 (talk) 05:47, 8 September 2014 (UTC)Reply
