message: Merge:Shouldn't the Giorgio Armani S.p.A. article be merged into this one? That would fit with other articles on fashion designers/companies such as Louis Vuitton.

replies: text: Armani, Giorgio (1934- ), Italian fashion designer whose clothes combine understated elegance, quality tailoring, and practicality. He was born in Piacenza, Italy. Armani dropped out of medical school and studied photography before becoming a window dresser at a department store in Milan. He worked there in menswear, then spent 10 years from 1961 to 1971 with Nino Cerutti, a leading men’s fashion house. After Armani left Cerutti, he founded his own firm with his clothes first appearing under the Armani label in 1975. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.143.92.52 (talk • contribs) 
Oppose:I do not believe so because it has nothing really to do with Giorgio Armani himself technically! but if you wish to do so go right on ahead and disregard my say. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.50.142.234 (talk • contribs) 
Merge:What's above is a good example of what can come before the paragraph in the Giorgio Armani S.p.A. article which further encourages merging. I do belive that the Giorgio Armani S.p.A. article should be merged with this article because it describes the begginings of the company. Having this information on the article would help it meet Wikipedia standards. The current version of this article is a stub but including Giorgio Armani S.p.A. article can halp expand it.Blah0401 04:52, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

message: I cannot get his orientation as 'homosexual' to appear on the infobox even though I submitted the information onto the page. Crystalclearchanges (talk) 10:16, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Queer

message: The second sentance of this article includes "...was acclaimed as the most successful designer to come out of Italy ..."
The word "acclaimed" has got to go (not to mention this sentence just sounds weird).
I can't come up with an anything better. I hope someone else can --angrykeyboarder (a/k/a:Scott) (talk) 19:45, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

message: I hear he supports a Milanese club but which one? Inter Milan or AC Milan? I'm dying to know!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.231.253.123 (talk) 04:57, 15 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Football fandom 

message: I will start a round of tidying up references and citations, adding ISBNs etc, consolidating duplicated citations and no doubt other matters arising. I've just ordered one of the books mentioned so I hope to be able to verify a few things (siblings' names for example) and add page numbers. To do this tidily I will be changing the details of how books are referenced, with short inline references and a single detailed citation, but the general style of the references will stay the same. I will also change the reference section titles around so it is clear what has been explicitly cited in the source and what is a more general reference. --Mirokado (talk) 12:30, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

message: If Armani doesn't want models' starving themselves to death, he should oppose torturing bulls to death.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.254.132.106 (talk) 12:18, 25 October 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Bull-fighting 

message: There are a lot of missing citations in this article. It would be nice to have them because this article isn't bad as it is but without references a lot of this content will have to be removed.Monopoly31121993 (talk) 18:26, 11 December 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: References needed

message: It's unacceptable that there's no section on his personal life, so I've started one - noting his sexual orientation. Others should feel free to expand the section with likewise referenced sources. Thanks! fishhead64 (talk) 18:48, 20 April 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: My edit was reverted without explanation. I've restored it. If this becomes a revert war, I'll report. fishhead64 (talk) 20:00, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: The source cited does not state his sexual orientation. I've tagged it for now. It'll be removed If a reliable source isn't cited. Lapadite (talk) 02:38, 24 April 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: You're right - my bad. He was paraphrasing a hypothetical comment. I've found references to his sexuality, included those, including his longstanding relationship with Sergio Galeotti. fishhead64 (talk) 18:00, 24 April 2015 (UTC)

message: It looks like references to his ethnic background keep getting added and removed. Is there a reason they are getting reversed? Guardian1099 (talk) 14:01, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: The reason for adding and removing is that both addists  and removists tend to misunderstand WP:TRUTH. I have added a subsection with proper attribution. We don't need a proof whether he is Armenian or not, the fact that media periodically publishes articles alleging his father had Armenian heritage is itself notabe, although not enough data to say whether this is true or not. --Armatura (talk) 10:55, 14 November 2021 (UTC)
