Line 1: {{WikiProject Sicily\|importance=mid\|class=NA\|}} {{Archive box\|auto=yes}} I am trying to start up a Sicilian wikiproject focussing on all matters Sicilian, attempting to fill in the many gaps relevant to her political structures, history, geography, and related biographies. This is a first draft, and I would appreciate any input from anyone on how to set this up properly. [[User:Pippu d'angelo\|ρ¡ρρµ δ→θ∑]] - [[:scn:User talk:Pippu d'Angelo\|<small>(waarom? jus'b'coz!)</small>]] 02:04, 27 March 2006 (UTC) ~~: this is a great start! i'm so glad to see this project finally happen. Maybe we should have a task list on the page? - [[User:AKeen\|AKeen]] 03:38, 27 March 2006 (UTC)~~ ::Hi AKeen! What I've done is collect bits and pieces from it.wiki and scn.wiki - much of it (probably all of it!) needs to be anglicised - but all the red links we end up with will effectively represent a task list. Don't forget to add you name to the list of participants. Let me know if you are unsure how. I am confident we will attract stacks of users to this project! [[User:Pippu d'angelo\|ρ¡ρρµ δ→θ∑]] - [[:scn:User talk:Pippu d'Angelo\|<small>(waarom? jus'b'coz!)</small>]] 03:53, 27 March 2006 (UTC) == Request Sicilian translation [[scn:Cucina catanisa]] == ~~==Frazione==~~ ~~'Fractions' isn't really English. I note that it's about to be propagated via the Sicily project. Could we use 'Districts'?~~ <small>—The preceding [[Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages\|unsigned]] comment was added by [[User:Jigsawpuzzleman\|Jigsawpuzzleman]] ([[User talk:Jigsawpuzzleman\|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Jigsawpuzzleman\|contribs]]) {{{2\|}}}.</small><!-- [Template:Unsigned] --> :I agree - I think we should leave it as "frazione" instead of "fractions." We can continue to link to [[frazione]], so people can find out what this means specifically. They don't really have a precise English equivalent. "Fractions" is literal, but doesn't quite capture it.- [[User:AKeen\|AKeen]] 18:42, 3 May 2006 (UTC) Can't read Sicilian very well, but this article seems to merit translation. [[User:MatthewVanitas\|MatthewVanitas]] ([[User talk:MatthewVanitas\|talk]]) 05:56, 2 January 2010 (UTC) ::OK, 'frazione', in my humble prejudice would be OK but it should be in italics. This is, after all (cue strains of 'God Save the Queen') the English-speaking lump of Wikipedia and I note that the article on London in the Italian Wikipedia has it divided into 'distretti' and not boroughs. I'd be open to better suggestions though. Apols for not appending my moniker to my last post... [[User:Jigsawpuzzleman\|Jigsawpuzzleman]] 20:38, 3 May 2006 (UTC) :::Sorry for joining in late - where is fazione getting used? Could "suburbs" be used? Otherwise, if there is no equivalent, I agree that ''frazione'' should be italicised. [[User:Pippu d'angelo\|ρ¡ρρµ δ→θ∑]] - [[:scn:User talk:Pippu d'Angelo\|<small>(waarom? jus'b'coz!)</small>]] 23:33, 3 May 2006 (UTC) ~~:::Italics for sure - [[User:AKeen\|AKeen]] 23:40, 3 May 2006 (UTC)~~ Pippu, 'Frazione' is on the infobox template which is drawn from the Mazara page. My Italian isn't sturdy enough to contribute further to the debate, but what about 'outlying areas'? I'm not sure that 'suburbs' is really suitable for medium-sized provincial towns. Anyway, I feel I should leave this to you lot... I'll shut up now. [[User:Jigsawpuzzleman\|Jigsawpuzzleman]] 07:15, 4 May 2006 (UTC) :Ok - I've simply italicized the word ''Frazioni'' in the template itself. Seeing that it is also a link to an article describing the word ''[[frazione]]'', I think that is the best we can do. No single English word will do because it can describe a range of possibilities: formal and informal subdivisions, outlying hamlets and villages, and newer suburbs/estates/housing developments. One thing for sure, ''frazioni'' is definitely better than "fractions"! [[User:Pippu d'angelo\|ρ¡ρρµ δ→θ∑]] - [[:scn:User talk:Pippu d'Angelo\|<small>(waarom? jus'b'coz!)</small>]] 07:31, 4 May 2006 (UTC) ~~:How much better? About one-quarter to one-third better!

For sure they collaborated, but he was teaching (if my memory doesn't fail) theoretical physics in Naples. <small>—The preceding [[Wikipedia:Sign your posts on talk pages\|unsigned]] comment was added by [[User:Paolone\|Paolone]] ([[User talk:Paolone\|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Paolone\|contribs]]) 12:59, June 4, 2006 (UTC).</small> After looking at the article [[Ciaramedda]] (a Sicilian bagpipe), I realised there were basically no articles for Sicilian music. I created the following categories to fix that (inter-linking them to scn.wiki categories), and would appreciate your help filling them out, either with new articles or by translating Sicilian articles: ~~==Syracuse poll==~~ [[:Category:Sicilian music]] [[:Category:Sicilian musical groups]], note a full '''46 articles''' over at [[scn:Catigurìa:Gruppi musicali siciliani]]. Hope this gets folks off to a good start; at least we've expanded the category trees with some basic articles. [[User:MatthewVanitas\|MatthewVanitas]] ([[User talk:MatthewVanitas\|talk]]) 05:46, 2 January 2010 (UTC) ~~Hey all, there is a poll going on about the naming of [[Syracuse]], your input would be appreciated at [[Talk:Syracuse]]. - [[User:f-m-t\|FrancisTyers]] [[User_talk:f-m-t\|·]] 10:13, 6 July 2006 (UTC)~~ == More translation/transfer needed at [[scn:Catigurìa:Folklori sicilianu]] == ~~== Commune ==~~ Hopefully John doesn't mind, but I have copied two notes he wrote to me today to this page because John is making a reasonable argument about the use of "Commune". I note that the whole of France has been done in en.wiki using "commune", and there is a decent argument there that we could do the same for Italy (and therefore Sicily). I probably have to withdraw from the debate because I just see hippies whenever I see this word (no disrespect intended). I can confirm that my Chambers dictionary carries the word with the definition intended here - so - what do you all think? [[User:Pippu d'angelo\|ρ¡ρρµ δ→θ∑]] - [[:scn:User talk:Pippu d'Angelo\|<small>(waarom? jus'b'coz!)</small>]] 12:54, 18 July 2006 (UTC) Was comparing [[:Category:Sicily]] to [[:scn:Catigurìa:Sicilia]], and realised that there are 31 pages of Sicilian folklore, but no similar category in English. I created [[:Category:Sicilian folklore]] to start with, but could use help filling it in from [[:scn:Catigurìa:Folklori sicilianu]]. [[User:MatthewVanitas\|MatthewVanitas]] ([[User talk:MatthewVanitas\|talk]]) 06:10, 2 January 2010 (UTC) Hello, I've responded to your comments about translation of the Italian ''comuni'' over at [[Category talk:Cities and towns in Italy#Suggested recategorization]]. In short, I argued that "commune" is the standard English translation for this term. Even if "commune" is not used in English to refer to municipalities in English-speaking countries, it ''is'' used to refer to French, Italian, etc. local government entities, and I provided dictionary entries to back me up on this. I don't think we should overtranslate. [[User:John Kenney\|john k]] 11:35, 18 July 2006 (UTC) ==Ancient sicilians were illyrians== I certainly know about the hippy meaning of "commune," but words can have more than one meaning. All of the English dictionaries either of us has so far mentioned include a definition of "commune" which includes French and Italian ''communes''/''comuni''. The wikipedia article italicizing "commune" seems to be based on the same misconception as calling Italian ''comuni'' municipalities - that "commune" in English is not an appropriate translation of the French ''commune''. But it seems clear from our readings of dictionaries that "commune" is an appropriate translation of French ''commune'' (and Italien ''comune''). That this isn't the primary meaning of the word is irrelevant. Perhaps the word "count" would form a good example. The word "Count" has an English noun meaning related to the verb "count" - a "vote count," for instance. And I'd think that this would be the primary English noun meaning of "count." That doesn't mean that we should translate French ''comte'', German ''graf'', etc, as "Earl". "Commune" is the appropriate English term for these local government units. I don't see why we shouldn't use it. [[User:John Kenney\|john k]] 12:44, 18 July 2006 (UTC) Does anyone know about this ?

[[User:WhisperToMe\|WhisperToMe]] ([[User talk:WhisperToMe\|talk]]) 14:49, 13 August 2012 (UTC) I would like some people to have a look at the proposed format, and as there is no WikiProject for Italy as a whole, I hope you can give me some feedback. Please take a look at the sample article at [[User:Eubot/Moretta]], and comment on the format of the article. You can also edit the sample article; I will take your edits into account when writing the final version of my bot.

The [[WP:COUNCIL\|WikiProject Council]] has recently updated the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Directory]]. This new directory includes a variety of categories and subcategories which will, with luck, potentially draw new members to the projects who are interested in those specific subjects. Please review the directory and make any changes to the entries for your project that you see fit. There is also a directory of portals, at [[User:B2T2/Portal]], listing all the existing portals. Feel free to add any of them to the portals or comments section of your entries in the directory. The three columns regarding [[:Category:WikiProject assessments\|assessment]], [[:Category:WikiProject peer reviews\|peer review]], and [[:Category:Wikipedia collaborations\|collaboration]] are included in the directory for both the use of the projects themselves and for that of others. Having such departments will allow a project to more quickly and easily identify its most important articles and its articles in greatest need of improvement. If you have not already done so, please consider whether your project would benefit from having departments which deal in these matters. It is my hope that all the changes to the directory can be finished by the first of next month. Please feel free to make any changes you see fit to the entries for your project before then. If you should have any questions regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you.

It was initially my hope to try to have this done as part of [[Wikipedia:Esperanza\|Esperanza's]] proposal for an appreciation week to end on Wikipedia Day, January 15. However, several people have once again proposed the entirety of Esperanza for deletion, so that might not work. It was the intention of the Appreciation Week proposal to set aside a given time when the various individuals who have made significant, valuable contributions to the encyclopedia would be recognized and honored. I believe that, with some effort, this could still be done. My proposal is to, with luck, try to organize the various WikiProjects and other entities of wikipedia to take part in a larger celebrartion of its contributors to take place in January, probably beginning January 15, 2007. I have created yet another new subpage for myself (a weakness of mine, I'm afraid) at [[User talk:Badbilltucker/Appreciation Week]] where I would greatly appreciate any indications from the members of this project as to whether and how they might be willing and/or able to assist in recognizing the contributions of our editors.

I have nominated [[Sicilian Baroque]] for a [[Wikipedia:Featured article review/Sicilian Baroque/archive1\|featured article review here]]. Please join the discussion on whether this article meets [[Wikipedia:What is a featured article?\|featured article criteria]]. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. If substantial concerns are not addressed during the review period, the article will be moved to the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Delist" the article's featured status. The instructions for the review process are [[Wikipedia:Featured article review\|here]]. -- [[User:Beland\|Beland]] ([[User talk:Beland\|talk]]) 00:32, 29 January 2020 (UTC) Please [[Wikipedia_talk:Version_1.0_Editorial_Team/Assessment#WikiProject_responses\|leave a message]] with us if you have any queries regarding the introduction of the revised scheme.

[[User:DESiegel\|DES]] [[User talk:DESiegel\|<sup>(talk)</sup>]][[Special:Contributions/DESiegel\|<sub>DESiegel Contribs</sub>]] 03:52, 23 July 2020 (UTC) I've been in a seemingly interminable dispute over mentioning the [[Sicani]] wherever the history of Malta comes up. I put out a request for a third opinion, and the editor who came over sided with me, but that did nothing to resolve the dispute. Maybe someone here can help work things out? The dispute is based on the following assumptions, none of which have been backed up by reliable references: == [[:S.S.D. Palermo]] listed at Requested moves== The Sicani were the '''original''' inhabitants of Sicily, dating from 8000 BC. (We only know they were there c. 1000 BC when we have our first records, and that the Greeks believed that they were the oldest of the three indigenous ethnoi ''present at the time.'' That leaves 7000 years of possible immigration to change the ethnic makeup of Sicily, and after all we do have evidence of Minoan contact.)

(Thucydides reports that they came from "Iberia", which included Gaul in his day, but the linguistic connection does not follow. BTW, if they came from Iberia recently enough for Thucydides to know about it, IMHO it seems far fetched to assume that the immigration occurred 7000 years earlier. I'm not advocating that we state this in the article, only that it casts doubt on the assumptions above.)
