Andrea Palladio[edit]

Andrea Palladio was born in Padua and lived there until the age of 15. I don't know if you can speak of him as a native of Vicenza. Errabee 17:22, 14 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

IPA[edit]

Can someone put an IPA pronunciation for the city name ? 12.149.39.84 18:40, 28 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Name Ilvo Diamanti[edit]

Why is it connected to Vicenza? I do not see any traces of it in the Vicenza page —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.94.135.41 (talk) 16:24, 18 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Allied bombings[edit]

The article says "it was the most damaged city in Veneto by Allied bombings". Does this mean:

in World War I (in which case "Allied" should be linked to Allies of World War I),
in World War II (in which case "Allied" should be linked to Allies of World War II), or
in both wars (in which case "Allied" can stay linked to Allied).

"Vicenza is the third-largest Italian industrial centre"[edit]

This seems simply untrue. The Italian Wikipedia does say that the province of Vicenza is the third-largest for exports, but this article is about the city. And the references given do not support the statement. — Preceding unsigned comment added by METRANGOLO1 (talk • contribs) 08:09, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"Rich culture"[edit]

"Vicenza is a thriving and cosmopolitan city, with a rich history and culture" - just out of curiosity, do we have any articles stating that a city has poor history and culture? If not...then what's the point? --Ehitaja (talk) 09:38, 30 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Questions and comment[edit]

1. "Oratory of San Nicola da Tolentino: finished in 1678 on commission of the fraternity of St. Nicholas, it is a chapel that houses a series of paintings focused on the life of the saint, among the highest levels of the measured Baroque of Vicenza."

What does "highest levels of the measured Baroque of Vicenza" mean?

2. The Biblioteca Civica Bertoliana appears under the list of secular buildings and the one of libraries. That is redundant.

3. The image of the baccalà alla vicentina is pretty bad: it's out of focus and it has poor lighting. Can somebody replace it with a better photograph?
