with i?

Is Italian pronunciation: [ˈkɔsta kroˈtʃɛːre] without i or Italian pronunciation: [ˈkɔsta kroˈtʃiɛːre] with i?

Backed out edits by anon 92.84.127.194

Backed out some edits by 92.84.127.194 (talk · contribs) and other IP addresses in the 92.84.*.* block. All were uncited and had no edit comments. One was a big deletion of an engine room fire incident. --John Nagle (talk) 18:35, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

Seriously?

"The company gained international attention on January 13, 2012 when one of its cruise ships, the Costa Concordia, ran aground and capsized off the coast of Italy, all because of Captain Schettini."

1. Schettino 2. "all because of x" is hardly the proper encyclopedic way to phrase this.

Maybe an encyclopedia anyone can edit isn't such a great idea. 89.176.209.84 (talk) 14:09, 26 January 2015 (UTC)

So fix it and move on. - SummerPhD (talk) 02:13, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

"Lyndaship is reverting every sourced edit we make" Issue

I have added a sourced information with a reference link to Costa's Deliziosa/Luminosa's GRT field. Lyndaship kept reverting my edits every time depsite being sourced (by official company catalogues and builder's technical data) and retained the old unsourced info . He/she claimed that the GRT is 92.720 and even revert it to 92.700 (not accurate number too by his/her claim) with no reason. And this is only an example because I have seen on many other ship pages that he/she erased large amounts of credible info by other users and kept his/hers. All the ship and especially cruise ship articles have become less informative when Lyndaship involved with the edits. By his/her logic only one or two people should edit wikipedia and that's really unfortunate. 194.219.106.148 (talk) 20:45, 14 April 2019 (UTC)

Please stop the tantrums and check waht sources are reliable and suitable for citing. The documents you claim to quote are primary sources which are not allowed in Wkipedia, it relies on secondary sources. Secondly the primary documents refer to the planned GT which changes during construction. Find a secondary source that supports your edits and there will be no problem. Murgatroyd49 (talk) 06:37, 15 April 2019 (UTC)

You don't list your sources either. Lyndaship is claiming that her source has the GRT at 92.720 but he or she reverts it back to 92.700 (a false number too). How does that make you credible? And I think that if something is moved to the talk page you have no right to revert it until the talk is closed. 194.219.106.148 (talk) 17:04, 15 April 2019 (UTC)

Here are the sources [1] and [2]. Feel free to add them to the article if you feel these two ships unlike all the others listed need to have the tonnage sourced. Please note there is a difference between Gross tonnage (GT) and Gross register tonnage (GRT). Oh and not that it matters but I'm female Lyndaship (talk) 17:56, 15 April 2019 (UTC)

Citation Tag Removal

I removed the lack of inline citations tag. The tag has been on the page since 2012 and the issue has been resolved. GroundFloor (talk) 16:51, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
