Inconsistency with Benito Mussolini article[edit]

The article states that she moved to France after the war, however the article on Benito Mussolini states she moved to England.--Aimaz (talk) 17:02, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The article Benito Mussolini currently notes that "other relatives of Edda (Castrianni) moved to England after World War II" (emphasis added), so the two articles do not necessarily contradict one another. Still, the claim that she moved to France is in need of a source, so I added a {{fact}} tag to it. –Black Falcon (Talk) 07:13, 18 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Edda was registered under her father's name, "mother unknown

I'm puzzled by this one: mother unknown seems more logic to me. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fralence (talkcontribs) 15:33, 1 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Unclear or dubious passages[edit]

In the passage about Ciano's execution, Hitler's name pops up without proper clarification of his role in the affair (it may be evident to the author, but it is not evident to others). Specifically, it says: "In July 1943 <snip> Galeazzo Ciano voted against his father-in-law <for which he was subsequently found guilty of high treason and sentenced to death>. Mussolini- with no result - begged Hitler to forgive Galeazzo" -- but why Hitler should have had the last say in this matter, a conspiracy against Mussolini, is unclear.

Also, the sentence depicting Ciano's death -- "He was tied to a chair and shot in the back" -- does not sound consistent with the actual footage of the event. (I also think it is somewhat irrelvant in the context of this article, about his wife, but that may be a matter of opinion.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.142.217.249 (talk) 18:51, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Introductory paragraph inconsistent with article[edit]

At the end of the introduction it is said that she „had an affair with Chinese warlord and political figure Chang Hsüeh-liang (Zhang Xueliang)[1] after her father's execution by the Italian partisans in April 1945“ whereas the article later (consistent with the WP article on her husband and at least one of the sources) states that this took place in the early 30s during her husband‘s time as consul in China. I suggest to delete „ had an affair with Chinese warlord and political figure Chang Hsüeh-liang (Zhang Xueliang)[1]“ (and the reference to the Telegraph article at the end of the sentence). IMO this anecdote does‘t fit into the introduction anyhow.Chilrreh (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 19:44, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
