Referening The Jews

I do not like references to Jews in this page. I think it detracts from the subject matter and belongs in a seperate article relating to neurosis of the Jews. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.241.11.51 (talk) 18:14, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wanted to add to family tree

I noted that Henrietta_Maria_of_France which exists on wikipedia is the daughter of Marie de' Medici (1573 – 1642), wife of Henry IV of France, so I wanted to add that into the family tree, so immediately exposing the fact the the Medici penetrated English Royal Family.

Designation and details

I removed the section entitled "Designation and details". It was tagged for being empty in July 2009. Since there has been no attempt to fill in that section, there didn't seem much point in keeping it in the article. howcheng {chat} 17:28, 8 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move of several article titles

Hello. I have undertaken a requested move proposal for the article titles of some of the members of the Medici family. I have focused on ten of them (most of which use dates as disambiguation), proposing more conventional naming disambigation that avoids dates. The RM and discussion is to proceed at Talk: Lorenzo de' Medici (1463–1503)#Requested move. Editors interested in the Medici should visit that discussion and voice their opinion on the proposed changes. Thank you. Walrasiad (talk) 11:25, 23 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion reference to persection of jews

Evidence of persecution is highly speculative and is not relevant to the subject matter.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.241.11.51 (talkcontribs)

I fail to see how this is "not relevant to the subject matter". Can you explain? Also, can you provide a source to support your claim that "evidence of persecution is highly speculative"? The given reference, Acton's book The Last Medici is pretty clear: "[Cosimo]'s theological humour found another vent in persecuting the Jews."

There are many pages relating to Jewish persecution on wikipedia, none referencing the issue nor history considering it a persecution of jews,researching the Medici should not provide route to the issue. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 60.241.11.51 (talk) 15:54, 24 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
