Unjustified reversion

Well now, this edit removed some valuable information that I added: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Palazzo_della_Civilt%C3%A0_Italiana&diff=1052033544&oldid=1052017437. The fact that "groviera" primarily means "gruyère" appears to be reported nowhere else on Wikipedia. There is no need to omit it here, and it gives a fuller account of the etymology. As for the reversion to "Swiss Cheese" rather than my uncapped "Swiss cheese", that is not warranted by the context either. The present text at that point:

La Groviera (Italian for "Swiss Cheese") ...

My version:

The Palazzo della Civiltà Italiana, also known as the Palazzo della Civiltà del Lavoro, or in everyday speech as the Colosseo Quadrato ("Square Colosseum") or La Groviera (Italian for "gruyère" or "Swiss cheese"[1]), is a building in the EUR district in Rome.

The later citation appealed to by the reverting editor (not shown here) is retained in my version; it makes the connection with some or other kind of Swiss cheese, but it does not supply the more exact etymology. Incidentally, that reference's exact wording is this:

... nicknamed Colosseo Quadrato or Groviera (Square Colosseum or Swiss Cheese).

Not "La Groviera", if we are going to be sticklers here. I put it out for consideration: Why not give the more informative etymology, with a perfectly authoritative source cited and supplanting nothing in the existing text? On this basis I am reinstating my edit. Let anyone who wants to revert it argue the case here. We want maximally informative articles that supply relevant information that most people would have trouble finding elsewhere, yes? 114.72.76.18 (talk) 05:53, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
