Italo & Roberto
In the Blue Comet, the Zips are given names finally; Italo and Roberto. I added them to the list with a short description, and put them in Misc. Members, though feel free to move them where you like. I also changed the Death List from Zip #1 and #2. If someone can find out the actors, it would be greatly appreciated.
Mikey Palmice and Brendan Filone
He deserves to be up to being a secondary character —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.238.178.49 (talk) 22:57, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
Brendan Filone also deserves to be up to being a secondary character 72.229.48.178 (talk) 00:25, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
Ercole Soprano
The name is spelled Ercole not Ercoli. In Italian, the ending 'i' denotes the plural form, as this is a name, the correct spelling is Ercole.
General Information
This article was created by moving content from the article List of characters from The Sopranos - this move was undertaken to reduce the size of the original article. The move was suggested and agreed upon by another 2 editors. --Opark 77 22:41, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
Crew associations taken from the article DiMeo Crime Family. Soldier is a term used to refer to a made man. Associate is used to refer to someone who is part of a crew in a mafia crime family. --Opark 77 22:41, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
All entries are linked to by the name in the header from various other articles - please think carefully before changing the entry names as it will invalidate many links. If you do change an entry name you should at least go and change the entry link on the main A-Z character list. --Opark 77 17:05, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
Main and Supporting
As of the 27 April 2006 there are 20 main characters, approximately 200 supporting characters in our list. These divisions are arbitrary and open to personal interpretation. This has caused some argument on the main page in the past. The supporting characters were previously divided into secondary and tertiary but a move was made with consensus support to simplify things and unite the categories. However ex-secondary characters still have their own pages at the moment and do not appear in this list.
I was wondering if there are any conventions for determining who is what sort of character? I think it would be useful to try and reach a consensus on these conventions and produce guidelines for the decision on the importance of a character.
A discussion of the status of characters can be found here. I think it is best placed on the main article List of characters from The Sopranos and would urge anyone interested to join in there. --Opark 77 18:03, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
Screenshots
Anyone with screenshots of DiMeo Crime Family characters? I would love a few more images uploaded. --Opark 77 22:42, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
Characters particularly deserving of one IMHO
- Ally Boy Barese
- Carlo Gervasi
- Jack Massarone
- Jimmy Altieri: This link has a useable one of Jimmy Altieri - http://www.geocities.com/davy_evans/sleep_with_the_fishes.html

Characters to be added
Objections
sorry, but this is a bad idea. if you separate dimeo then all the rest should be separated as well. there's no reason to separate one portion and leave the others on the list page. - Zarbon
- You're 100% right - the other lists should also be separated out into sub-lists. That constitutes several hours work and is an ongoing project. I am getting there. -Opark77
its just not good to see the list separated when the others remain intact. - Zarbon
- Fair enough, the update is complete now so the main page appears consistent. - Opark77
- With your permission I would like to remove this objection from the discussion board if you feel we have reached a compromise. Just to keep the talk board uncluttered. -Opark77
personally, it looks better now that the page isn't a mile long. as long as all of them get to be separated, its better in the long run. On another note, i have requested that Feech la manna and Gloria trillo be merged. they seriously have no reason to stay just because they were listed on hbo's character descriptions. the descriptions just follow most current characters. feech and gloria just aren't important whatsoever. - Zarbon
- I noticed your suggestion and added the proposal to the merge nominations list in the discussion board for the main article--Opark 77 22:53, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
Brendan Filone
The Brendan Filone character is the subject of a proposal of promotion to the list of secondary characters. --Opark 77 22:53, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
- I updated Brendan's profile heavily. I hope you like it and it makes him qualify more as secondary now Opark77. - Zarbon
- I do think lengthening the profile will help your cause and the revision mostly seems appropriate. I think it's important to try and be as concise, relevant and accurate as possible so that other editors don't pick apart your work - there are a couple of times in the new summary where facts about Brendan are repeated e.g. crystal meth usage and Chris's absence from the second hit. May I suggest that you could add a little about Brendan's flirting with Hunter Scangarello or his being contacted by Meadow (alongside Chris) as a possible source of Crystal Meth. --Opark 77 22:53, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
i don't think that little bit played a major role in his development because hunter and meadow end up taking the drugs from Chris...it would just make the article longer...and right now, it's already quite long. lets just hope that we can somehow help him go up to secondary. - Zarbon
Opark 77, if you know any other members who'd be willing to support our cause, maybe we can give Brendan, Sean, and Matt back their own pages. I mean, Benny and Eugene have kept their pages so I think it's only fitting. Let me know how you can help. - Zarbon
I guess it still depends on the voting over on the main discussion board. --Opark 77 07:52, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
the information on the main board is extremely cluttered and confusing. and the voting for them was based on whether or not they should be moved up to secondary from tertiary. well, now that they have been moved up since the "tertiary" rank was removed, i think we can, in our best interest, give all three of them their pages, and discuss whether or not Dino Zerilli deserves a page. - Zarbon
I think if you move something without consensus support it might just get moved back by other editors but if you want to try go ahead. I made a subsection on the main board to discuss the issue of what to do about ex-secondary characters. As for the voting I'm sorry it's clunky but it's still a way of assessing feeling and currently the votes put Brendan et al as tertiary and not deserving of his own page.--Opark 77 18:12, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
yes i understand the voting process, etc. But i am trying to relay the message to you that thanks to Kafziel and myself being in agree-ance, the rank of "tertiary" has been eliminated. And to decrease the size of the Dimeo page, what better than to give Brendan, Matt, and Sean back their pages, which they originally had anyways. - Zarbon
I'm sorry if I came across as patronising before - I never thought you didn't understand the voting process. I followed and participated in the decision to simplify the main page and understand that the terms tertiary and secondary have been removed from the main page and replaced with an all encompassing supporting character list. All of these distinctions are academic and detemrined by us editors. However there is still some distinction - the characters previously listed as secondary kept their old individual articles and those listed as tertiary reside in the sub-section pages. I still think it's necessary to consult other editors before taking a character from the subsection pages and giving them their own article otherwise merging back and forth and edit wars will happen. I used the terms secondary and tertiary to describe this movement as I'm a bit slow to adjust!--Opark 77 22:52, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
ah yes. i'm glad we understand each other. but you too would agree with me that Brendan, Matt, and Sean deserve their pages back would you not? - Zarbon
Yes, as long as the other (previosuly) secondary characters keep their articles I think Brendan and Matt deserve one. Sean probably not.--Opark 77 07:21, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
i'm going to give them pages, if they get reverted, then i'll leave it to discussion. - Zarbon
I thought that reverts would probably happen Zarbon, I'm afraid that consensus doesn't want them to have their own articles so it should really stay that way unless the votes change. In the mean time why not add Joey Cogo to the character list as I see you added him to the deceased list. --Opark 77 17:21, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
Rectently user M Vopni removed a lot of information from the Brendan Filone profile - he described the edit "Additional info not needed for a MINOR Character, condense version still has all important detaIls. Also, consensus was reached on short version when Filone was merged." I believe this refers to the discussion here. Having reread the discussion I cannot see a consensus being formed on what information the Brendan Filone summary should include - only that he should not have his own article. Although I hold a different opinion on him having his own article, I understand that I am very much in the minority and have never reverted the merge. I feel that some important facts about Brendan are lost by shortening his profile. I understand that we should aim to be concise with the article but I feel that accuracy is just as important. Rather than get into a revert war over it perhaps I could list the points that are now missing here and if anyone else feels they are worthy of inclusion they could post here or go ahead and add them to the profile. If no-one posts I will happily concede that I am in the wrong and leave the profile well alone.--Opark 77 14:32, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
- Who killed Brendan- the fact that it was Mikey is omitted
- Mode of death - an oft referenced trivia fact is the link between this death and Moe Greene in the godfather
- Brendan shares his thefts with Tony Soprano and his crew confirming him as an associate of the crew
- Tony, the main character of the show, doesn't like Brendan and once threw him physically from a room
- Brendan returned the second truck to Junior as ordered and payed tribute as ordered
- Brendan's flirtation with Hunter Scangarello
- Any mention of the warehouse confrontation between Tony, Chris and Brendan after the debacle of the second robbery
opark77, thank you for noticing this. m vopni is a terrible wikipedia editor and he uses a personal vendetta against me rather than a civilized method of handling the problem. he has furthermore, negligently reverted my edits just because they were made by me. This is a fine example. he diminishes the character simply because he doesn't want me to have my way. he seriously needs to grow up and stop reverting. this goes to wesleymullins as well. he started the debate originally because i had found him saying bad things about me in imdb.com chat. for more information about the things that he was saying, please check sopranos episode 3 denial anger acceptance discussion. there, you will evidently see what things conspire about me. i was lucky enough to catch him doing it. i wanted to report his behavior along with m vopni's careless and nonchalant reverts, but i didn't. opark77, i am glad i found someone like you who also sees my perspective. sfufan is another good member, regardless of some complications. you and him are both efficient editors and i need your help to stop the likes of m vopni from committing these childish reverts simply because they "feel" like it. - Zarbon
Hey again Zarbon. Try to remember not to take edits personally - it seems you believe these users have a grudge against you - I'm pretty sure they don't, they just want you to respect consensus. I have to say that I think it's a little hypocritical of you to call someone childish for making reverts on a whim - you've done this quite often. Thank you for the compliments about myself and sfufan. I agree he is probably the best editor we have here on the sopranos at the moment. I'm off to check the discussion on denial, anger, acceptance now. --Opark 77 21:35, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
- You know what Zarbon, If you love Brendan so much here's what you do. GO MAKE YOUR OWN PAGE! It's that simple! Go outside of wikipedia and create your own site, there you can write whatever you want about Brendan, Matt, or anybody else and no one could tell you what to do. But this is a community and an encyclopedia. Consensus has been reached a number of times and you just revert everything when it doesn't go your way, you've said so yourself.
- And I don't know why you can't stomach a condensed version of Brendan's bio, it still has all relevent and important and leaves out the little things. You're also wrong when you say that I'm only against you and Filone, I would support that for any minor character in 3 episodes or less. The fact is if we did it your way for every character the page would be too long, there would bound to be repetitive information in there, and when people came to actually read it, important details would be lost in a pile of unimportant ones.
- For example, is it really important to know that Brendan gave a DVD player to Sil or that Tony relays Juniors message from the sit down. Not really, that info is better left in the episode summary.
- As far as all that stuff about me being a bad editor, I'm sure everyone here can see that as a desperate attempt to get your way and I don't feel anything more needs to be said about it --M vopni 22:00, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
- And another thing, I went to the episode 3 talk page just now to see what i might have said about you. I didn't edit that page once, so I dont know what you were trying to prove. --M vopni 22:07, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
- I agree with M vopni here - having read the page it seems the discussion was all between Zarbon and wm (probably Wesley Mullins)--Opark 77 22:40, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

"For example, is it really important to know that Brendan gave a DVD player to Sil or that Tony relays Juniors message from the sit down. Not really, that info is better left in the episode summary."
no, that's not important, but the fact that MIKEY killed him is. And the fact that he's involved with Tony and gets tossed out is! I am seriously pointing out important things and you simply do not want any information on the character because of your personal feelings. M vopni, i suggest that you read what opark77 just wrote and he explains very well what the character description should include. as for length, he's getting exactly as much as sean and matt. - Zarbon
- Leaving Mikey out was an editing error by me, I admit that. It's fixed now. And the first sentence says he's an associate in Tony's Crew. Some of his other points are either reference in other articles (His death is in Types of murders in the main article) or are one of the non important things I mentioned before. And it anyone had personal feelings in this, it's you.--M vopni 02:37, 5 May 2006 (UTC)
his death is not unimportant. the manner in which he is killed is a key role in the mikey demise. that's the reason why chris is extremely ticked off when he caps mikey. you are instituting your own personal belief in what is important and what is not. why aren't you cutting down the matt, sean, and mikey profiles as well...they are around for the same level of happenings. - Zarbon
- M Vopni you raise an interesting point here. Repeating information across the different articles is definitely something I am guilty of. I didn't realise it was something we tried to avoid. I think perhaps the character guide should include links to the episode summary's from the appearances list. That way minor detail in the episode guide can be easily reached when someone looks up a character. The reverse of this is that information of relatively minor importance not in the episode guides should either be added there or remain here on the character guide. What do you think about this?
--Opark 77 06:46, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
Unseen Characters
I noticed that lots of unseen characters have been added so i added Corky Ianucci. He's mentioned quite a few times. I listed that he was mentioned in "whoever did this" but i'm certain that he was mentioned numerous times before that as well. if anyone remembers what other episodes he's referenced in, feel free to add to his profile. - Zarbon
- Good job Zarbon - I edited the summary a little as I don't recall him actually being there when Vesuvio burned down - just Sil. --Opark 77 11:02, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
Category tags
Category:Lists of characters from The Sopranos is a subcategory of both Category:Lists of fictional characters and Category:The Sopranos characters, so there is no need to explicitly tag this article as a member of those categories as well. --Paul A 07:00, 31 May 2006 (UTC)
Jackie, Sr. birthdate
Where does the information come from that Jackie Aprile, Sr. was born in 1950? That seems a bit early. For one thing, the actor playing that part was born in 1965. For another, his older brother was supposed to have been in high school with Tony Soprano's sister Janice, who's supposed to be maybe 5 or 6 years older than him, tops. - Nat Krause(Talk!) 23:25, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
- That was an estimate on my part. On further investigation in the episode Denial, Anger, Acceptance Jackie's age at his death is given as 44. Since the episode is supposed to occur in 1999 that would make his birthday either late 1954 or 1955. I have updated the birth year here and on the Aprile family tree. --Opark 77 11:41, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
Fallacious title
No one has stepped up to note that many of the characters on this list are not in the DiMeo crime family? Annalisa, for one, is head/acting head of her own family in Sicily. Several other characters, such as Massive G, never cooperated with the family at all, and only had incidental dealings with them. This list needs to be split apart badly.209.169.114.213 03:55, 9 July 2006 (UTC)
Tommy Di Palma
The elderly man Tommy who takes care of (and loses) Junior in Where's Johnny? is clearly not Tommy Di Palma. His last name is never mentioned. Back in early season 1, when Jackie is dying of cancer, Mikey Palmice says that Tommy Di Palma also has cancer, but "way worse than you". Whoever this Di Palma guy is, if he had cancer worse than Jackie, he would certainly be dead in 2004, four years later.
The "Lawrence or Lorenzo" debate about Larry Boy Barese
Some people believe Larry Boy Barese's first name is "Lorenzo". This is plain wrong. Take a look at this screencap from the episode "Pax Soprana": Link cun 20:06, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
Mama Livia calls him Lorenzo. But yeah I think his name is Lawerence. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.128.198.231 (talk) 06:20, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
In Stage 5 federal marshalls refer to him as Lorenzo. I think the writers just screwed up. --Ted87 (talk) 06:52, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

Questions
I'm thinking a lot about the original DiMeo Crime Family and their crews. There are three well-know capos: Johnny Boy Soprano, Feech La Manna and Junior Soprano, and there are many original members of the DiMeo Crime Family who referenced in the series, like Rocco DiMeo, Jerry Anastasia, Romeo Martin and Cicchi Sasso. Who worked for who?
Additionally we have not information about the early careers of some "current" members like Richie Aprile, Ray Curto, Tony Blundetto or Beppy Sasso. Which point at Ray Curto and Richie Aprile became capo?
Tony Sopranos mentions Richie Aprile's name together with Jerry Anastasia as guys he had to buy dinners for when he was a newly made guy. In episode Tony Blundetto was on an FBI picture with Feech La Manna. They worked together?
Jimmy Bones and Little Pussy Malanga was made men. In the first and second season there are five crews lead by Tony Soprano, Jimmy Altieri, Ray Curto, Larry Boy Barese and Junior Soprano. Jackie Aprile was the acting boss of the DiMeo Crime Family. Who lead the Aprile crew at this time? Why doesn't nobody looking for Jimmy Bones? Little Pussy Malanga worked for who?
I hope you can answer for my questions.Hotghar —Preceding signed but undated comment was added at 23:16, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Tommy Gilardi
Hi. It is just a probability assumption: in the first episode of Season 5 when Tony and Bobby watches the news about the relase of La Manna and Blundetto, the newsreporter states that both LaManna and Blundetto were prime suspects in the car-bomb killing of Gilardi. In the 80s LaManna was one of the most respected and fearest capo in the DiMeo Crime Family. Due the fact in the maffia, a capo rarely whacks somebody himself, and need permission of their capo to whack made men. I guess Tommy Gilardi one of the original La Manna Crew soldiers in the 80s, and La Manna was suspect for to take the order!? Beforehand thanks for your opinions. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.98.91.12 (talk) 14:54, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
Copyright Image Notice
Why is there a copyright image notice on the page? The page only has 8 images on it in full and there's like tons of characters. Only 8 of them are getting images, so that shouldn't be a problem at all, 8 images is like nothing. Imagine if all 135 characters on the page got an image, then it might pose somewhat of a problem. But right now, it shouldn't be any problem of copyright, none whatsoever. - 72.229.48.178 (talk) 16:15, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
Jackie Aprile, Jr.
Somebody recently changed the article for Jackie Aprile, Jr. into a redirect. Since this list has no bio info for him, could someone write one? -- azumanga (talk) 01:23, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
Emil "Email" Kolar
I recently edited the section to indicate that he was referred to as "Email" by Christopher Moltisanti, but some thoughtless "user" un-did my edit.
For the record, on page 25 of the book "The Sopranos on the couch", by Maurice Yacowar, it is written:
"With the cocky insensitivity of the young and shallow, Chris calls Emil Email." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.174.205.252 (talk) 05:23, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
"E-Mail" is simply a mispronunciation of his name, not a nick name. --Ted87 (talk) 23:58, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
Slava
Anyone add Slava to the Sopranos associates? Darwin's Bulldog (talk) 06:09, 18 September 2010 (UTC)
Dickie Moltisanti as an "Unseen Character"
Not to get technical here, but there is a fairly prominent picture of Dickie Moltisanti shown at the end of the episode "For All Debts Public and Private". The morning following the murder of Det. Barry Haydu, Christopher is sitting at the table at his mother's house looking at a picture of Dickie holding a baby (presumably Christopher). The man in the picture looks just like actor Michael Imperioli (who plays Christopher in the series) so maybe it's actually him or possibly his father or uncle or somebody. Does anyone have any info on this?
While not directly shown, it's interesting how when Christopher gets up to put the $20 dollar bill he took from Haydu on the refrigerator, his mother sits down at the table and places the picture of Dickie face down on the table. Darwin's Bulldog (talk) 21:11, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
Re: Patrizio "Uncle Pat" Blundetto ERROR
Mark Margolis did not portray Patrizio "Uncle Pat" Blundetto. That was Frank Albanese --98.119.14.141 (talk) 00:47, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
