Sant'Efis
[edit]Hello Attilios, do you speak sardinian? Sorry, I'm not english mother language and have surely made many mistakes, but, actually, you cancelled entire sections because you don't understand the meaning of the specific vocabolary, such as in heraldry, or are not keen on some arguments, such as linguistics, and you dont'like sardinian language. I'm so sorry, I worked so much in this article, perhaps it was a little...magnified, but it was not a disaster as you wrote. I'd like help, but I think that censorship or blame is not in the spirit of wikipedia. Your comments are really inapposite. Cagliari is my town, I know it very well, and I tried to wrote something that could atract interest of anglo-saxon speaking people. You can rectify my prose, my style, reduce some excess information, ok, no problem: I would appreciate it very much, but surely you can't rectify my sardinian. Sant'Efis is Sant'Efis!! Unquestionably!
Addition to Italian Wikipedia
[edit]Hi Attilios,I'm working on translating Bottega Veneta from English into Italian and was wondering if you have time to help me out. I found your username on Wikiproject:Italy and saw that you're fluent in both English and Italian. I have a paid COI regarding Bottega Veneta, but my main concern here is ensuring that the information available in English is available and up to date in Itailan as well. IvanScrooge98 assisted publishing half of the article but need to get the highlighted part published too. Can you assist in completing this project? Here is the Sandbox of the Italian translation.

Draft translated from Italian Wikipedia
[edit]Hello Attilios,
I hope you are doing well. I noticed your contributions to the English Wikipedia, specifically regarding topics related to Italy, and I thought you might be the right person to ask for some advice.
I have recently translated into English an article already published on the Italian and French Wikipedias about the “Passatore” sailboat model (Draft:Passatore), built in the 1970s in Cervia, basing on a production process that was quite innovative at the time.
I should note that I have a conflict of interest, as I am a board member of a sports association mentioned in the article. For this reason, I have only created a draft on the English Wikipedia and I am waiting for independent editors to review it and, if appropriate, publish it. I have contacted some relevant WikiProjects (Sailing, Engineering, Italy), but so far I have not received feedback.
If you have the time and interest, I would be very grateful if you could take a look at the draft and let me know whether you think it meets the standards for publication, or if there is anything that should be improved. Of course, there is absolutely no rush.
Thank you very much for your time, and for the work you already do on the encyclopedia. Palco10 (talk) 11:56, 23 November 2025 (UTC)
