Talk:Italian Mare Nostrum

Dispute[change source]

This article was the subject of a long, long, long dispute over neutrality on the standard WP. It was written by a frequent sockpuppet user, and subject to disruption by him/her. It has evidently been copied to here to side-step the editing process that took place there. Xyl 54 (talk) 10:05, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Can you point out some of the disputed items? --Eptalon (talk) 10:32, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The whole story is here
The NPOV version of this article is here
One of the sockpuppet discussions is here,
and the most relevant SP userpage is here. Xyl 54 (talk) 13:56, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps I should be more specific:

SEWP does not have the concept of "sockpuppet" (other than for voting purposes)
If I understand you correctly, this article was created (or heavily modified) by a user that is seen as a Sockpuppet (per ENWP definition) on EnWP.
What part of this article do you see as "biased" (towards endorsing Fascism or denying it). If you can point out specific changes, we can talk about implementing them. Just because a term was part of the Fascist propaganda does not mean it is bad (esp. bad to describe that Fascist regime). There is no forbidden kinowledge. This article may be biased, but unless you coume up with specific proposals on how to change it we can't. --Eptalon (talk) 14:52, 20 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Eptalon. XYL54 if known for his hate against WW2 Italy and probably doesn't know the meaning of the word "impartiality"...(;-D)...

Not simple[change source]

This article was tagged as 'too complex' in October 2008 because it did not use simple English (In fact it was copied without any changes from the English WP). The tag was deleted by the original editor in May 2009, without any attempt to simplify the language. Nor has he made any effort to simplify it since. So I have put the 'too complex' tag back on the article, to make the problem clear. Xyl 54 (talk) 16:27, 2 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I find the language to be written in an easy way that I and all of us can understand. So, I erase the tag.
