Checking against GA criteria

GA review (see here for criteria)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

   Colajanni, the chief architect of Giolitti’s fall exposing the Banca Romana scandal This phrase doesn't really make sense. Did Giolitti's fall expose the scandal, or did the scandal precipitate his fall.

   Colajanni, who by exposing the Banca Romana scandal precipitated Giolitti’s fall... does that make it clear? By exposing the Banca Romana scandal Colajanni precipitated Giolitti's fall. I am open to a better formulation if you have one. - DonCalo (talk) 20:13, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

   That would be a good way of expressing it. Jezhotwells (talk) 22:45, 16 January 2011 (UTC)  Done

   On January 3, 1894, Crispi declared a state of siege over Sicily. "over", perhaps in or throughout  Done

   I made a number of minor copy-edits.[1]

   Thanks. - DonCalo (talk) 20:16, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

1. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

   referencing is thorough and good.

2. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

   The first official Fasci was founded on May 1 (Labour Day), 1891, in Catania by Giuseppe de Felice Giuffrida The lead states that the movement started in 1889. Can this be resolved?

   See the reference at the end of that sentence: In reality the first Fascio was set up in Messina on March 18, 1889, but let a dormant life since its founder, Nicola Petrina, was arrested in July of that year and only released in 1892. Another reason why the first Fascio of Messina – formed after the example of the Fasci operai (Workers leagues) constituted in Central and North Italy from 1871 – did not develop was that it brought together not individual workers but the workers' associations of the city, which retained their independence, their status and economic orientation. See: Scolaro, Il movimento antimafia siciliano, p.18 I did not want to elaborate on this minor detail in the article itself, but it is explained in the note. We could also put it between brackets. What do you think is best? - DonCalo (talk) 20:24, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

   It needs explanation in the text. You should not rely on footnotes to explain the article. Jezhotwells (talk) 22:45, 16 January 2011 (UTC)  Done

3. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

   The heavy sentence aroused strong reactions in Italy and even in the United States. "even" is a weasel word implying point of view.

   I want to express that as far away as the US (remember this is taking place the end of the 19th century) there was quite a lot of attention for the trials. Any suggestion on which word to use here? - DonCalo (talk) 20:24, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

   Jusdt drop "even". Jezhotwells (talk) 22:45, 16 January 2011 (UTC)  Done

4. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

5. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

6. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

   OK, on hold for seven days for above issues to be addressed. Jezhotwells (talk) 21:29, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

   I think the article now sufficiently passes muster. There is room for some improvemnets if you wish to take this further. The narrative flow could be improved. Matrial giving more detail of teh background could be added. Pass as GA. Jezhotwells (talk) 11:54, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Lack of precision + mispelling?

According to WP:it, the gabellotti are the land renters, not the land owners (that should be made clear). And it is not written gabelotti. In the hope it helps,--Agatino Catarella (talk) 14:47, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

Taxes?

What is meant with "taxes" in this article, exactly? What kind of taxes? --Agatino Catarella (talk) 01:11, 8 March 2014 (UTC)
