What?! Calm down Mario! I merely stated accepted fact, its not disputed that Slavs constituted a majority in Dalmatia as a region, even by the irredentists! You are NOT "aligned" with the Americans and British, and that is certainly not what I meant. All I meant was that Italian culture is closer to the English culture than the Slavic culture is, and this is also widely accepted. Italian names simply "sound better" in general (to Slavs as well), and this is also widely accepted. Example: "Zara" sounds a lot better than "Zadar", (and can be a lot more easily pronounced) even though it is incorrect. You really need to calm down, I meant no offence as I was talking about the irredentists. However if you ''do'' believe Dalmatia is "rightfully Italian" or something like that then there is no need to offer any olive branches, I'm afraid. --<font face="Eras Bold ITC">[[User:DIREKTOR|<font color="DimGray">DIREKTOR</font>]] <sup>([[User talk:DIREKTOR|<font color="Gray">TALK</font>]])</sup></font> 18:06, 7 March 2008 (UTC) |

Barnstar
That is, by far, the best Barnstar I could ever possibly receive. Thank you, and I must award your the same thing, not because you awarded it to me, but because I see you actively engaging in conversations related to Italy, reverting vandalism on Italian-related pages, and improving the overall quality of these pages.

Barnstar of National Merit Italy | |
| I hereby award you this Barnstar for your equally tireless contributions to articles relating to the Italian people. Sicilianmandolin (talk) 20:46, 22 November 2007 (UTC) |
Mario, thanks for the invitation to join that discussion. Yes, that article doesn't seem to see much traffic. My problem with it is that it reads like a brocure for potential students and cites no sources. It needs a lot of {{fact}} tags.
Unfortunately, as an NCEES Model Law Structural Engineer I'm definitely of the opinion that one engineer really can't be qualified to prepare work in more than one discipline beyond the most rudimentary applications.
That said, there is value, I think, in an academic discipline that focuses on the application of electrical, mechanical, etc. in buildings. General EE or ME programs wouldn't necessarily focus on the application to buildings to properly prepare a practitioner in that arena.
Ciao and see you over there. MARussellPESE (talk) 00:52, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
deleating disscussion
please respond to comments on discussion pages and do not delete them, it is not the actual article and does not require deleation if you disagree, thank-you
didn't see your message first
sorry, didn't read you message first and therefore misunderstood your reason for deletion. Good point. --Pewwer42 (talk) 01:25, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
I have lived in England for longer than I have been in Sicily
So it would to be easier for me to correspond in English :) Well anyway, no I do not have agree with your reverts. I did not change the meaning of the articles by what I have done, but simply restructured, as before they were almost completely incomprehendable to someone who is not being an expert on them. Please tell to me why you reverting all my editing to Italians? Crystalclearchanges (talk) 18:53, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
Ok thanks for helping. My intentions are good so I hope you understand I didn't mean for anything to go wrong. Do you think you can help guide me in the future, as I really would like to becoming a good editor? Crystalclearchanges (talk) 22:41, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
- But i don't know any of the policies. I know i will probably make accident or something. Crystalclearchanges (talk) 18:04, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
I've had enough
While my experiences with Wikipedia editors have been generally enjoyable, I find myself policing articles close to my heart rather than contributing to them. The fun is gone. In my mind, except for high profile articles, Wikipedia has been lost to fringe fanaticals. I am leaving. Mariokempes (talk) 06:00, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
- Ah, sad, Mario. But, I know exactly what you mean. A lot of my interests in editing relate directly to articles pertaining to culture and ethnicity, and I see so much POV pushing and racism, it can be very discouraging. This is only one example. In any case; sorry to hear that you're leaving. Best of luck to you. Sicilianmandolin (talk) 06:40, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
- Come back! :( Sicilianmandolin (talk) 04:57, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
