Most of the sources are to Guarini's own works from the early 1600s. Wikipedia requires secondary WP:RS sources, preferably incorporated as inline references. There is excessive wikilinking which isn't consistent with WP:Manual of Style (WP:MOS) and makes the article difficult to read, e.g. earth and moon and astronomy don't need wikilinks.

The second section, about mathematics and astronomy, is especially opaque. It is repetitive initially, then becomes very dense. Again, WP:MOS favors a more succinct style of writing, and a less antiquated tone. The latter might be due to use of the 1911 Encyclopedia for parts of the article. The Encyclopedia is credited and is totally acceptable to use, but it would really help if the article were edited so as to be more accessible for 21st readers.

I cleaned up some of the over wikilining.--FeralOink (talk) 09:49, 7 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
