Paolo Andreani edit
First Italian balloon flight medal
- ... that the first Italian public balloon flight (see medal) was organised by Count Andreani in Brugherio?
- ALT1:... have a go .. but can you include Brugherio...

- New enough. The article is long enough to be a full fledged article. Well-sourced. No existing issues. Hook is good and interesting. QPQ done. Image is good and is free/fair to use. The references are offline or are in Italian but the source for the medal stands on it's own. Good to go. Shhhhwwww!! (talk) 06:01, 7 August 2015 (UTC) Thanks - I have just had it checked by Italians so I will credit them too. Victuallers (talk) 07:38, 7 August 2015 (UTC)
One small issue: the cited sentence in the article says "Moncucco" while the hook fact says "Brugherio". The apparent link in the article for "Moncucco" is actually a link to "Brugherio" but this is done without explantion. I presume the name has changed in the intervening centuries but a brief explanation like "Moncucco, now known as Brugherio" or "Moncucco, part of the modern city of Brugherio" (or whatever the truth may be). - Dravecky (talk) 19:44, 8 August 2015 (UTC)
@Labaici: can you answer Dravecky's question? Victuallers (talk) 19:57, 8 August 2015 (UTC)
- @Victuallers: @Dravecky: Moncucco is now part of Brugherio, like San Damiano and Baraggia. In Italy we call them frazioni. On it.wiki the page Moncucco redirects on Brugherio, but this is wrong: we are correcting the mistake, but the article on Moncucco not ready yet. It will take a bit of time. -- Labaici (talk) 09:43, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
- Done. Ciao! --Labaici (talk) 13:19, 11 August 2015 (UTC)
- Okay, and we're super-close now, but the Paolo Andreani article says "at the Villa Sormani in Brugherio" in the Life section and "at the Villa Sormani in Moncucco" in the Flight section. Please make these consistent to avoid confusion. It's such a minor nit to pick and everything else is fine so I'm applying the AGF check now, secure in the knowledge that you'll make this tiny copyedit long before this hook gets moved to a prep area. - Dravecky (talk) 20:15, 11 August 2015 (UTC)

- Good to go, in case that wasn't already clear. - Dravecky (talk) 04:25, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
