The article cites 1119 manuscript papers, the image 1200. What is correct? DTBone (talk) 19:30, 13 June 2009 (UTC)
article is sub-standard
There is a great deal to be said of the Atlanticus. Most of the article is devoted to a single incident, involving a single page, and the relevance of that business is not evident anyway.
As well as being deficient, it is also out of date. New Scientist recently published an article noting that the Atlanticus was being opened again, and pages from it are being displayed. It contains new information about Leonardo, his pastimes and preoccupations. I will see if I can update this. Myles325a (talk) 09:53, 19 February 2011 (UTC)
- Yes, it would be wonderful if you could begin the expansion of the article to address Leonardo's work, which is presumably where the bulk of the subject's importance lies! I'm not sure what kind of catalogues may accompany the rolling exhibits in Milan ([1][2]), but I'm sure there's something. If nothing else, we have a whole Commons category to peruse!

WP:COI section
“ | It was always assumed to have contained 1750 drawings (all by the great master), but this is now known to be incorrect. There were actually 1751 drawings, and this fact must have been known to Professor Barbieri and Father Giosafat Kurelo, the men who were responsible for the restoration work that took place in Grottaferrata between 1962 and 1972, and certainly to Professor Augusto Marinoni, supervisor for the Italian state.
During the restoration, all the drawings were removed from the sheets and on page 1033, formerly 370 (old numeration 51), a drawing measuring 21 x 16 cm was removed, which is now located on sheet 1035 recto: beneath the removed sheet, traces of glue could be seen, proof that a smaller drawing had been glued there; a drawing of which no mention had been made until today. This sheet, of which all trace had been lost, has now been found. All information and in-depth examinations about the rediscovered drawing on http://www.leonardoritrovato.com/Il_Disegno_ritrovato/Home.html |

This section, promotional of leonardoritrovato.com, was added as the sole contribution of a user Francesco Gerbino (talk), which is the name of that same website's editor and proprietor[3], Francesco Maria Gerbino (judging from Google, not a scholar or anyone whose views have been endorsed or even considered by a WP:RS).
Accordingly, I have removed the section to this talk page. By Wikipedia policy, it should only be added to the article in a form that meets with the approval of a consensus of unaffiliated editors. Until I see cogent evidence to the contrary, my position is that there is no reason or properly attributable basis on which to include this topic at all. Wareh (talk) 02:17, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
