message: I am changing the spelling of "Repubblic" (in History section, 3rd paragraph) to "Republic".  Please leave a message on my talk page if this is the wrong action for me to take (i.e. historical spelling). Kevin Hanse (talk) 14:55, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

message: The "elbow" etymology is already covered. "The name Ancona means "elbow" (from Greek *ankon 'elbow'), referring to the shape of its geographical position. We can find similar references to the shape of the human body in other cities with similar geo-morphological features, like Genova and Geneva (which names originate from the Proto-Indo-European *genu, meaning 'knee')." --Wetman 20:07, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

message: There is a rather obscure detail I bumped into when editing Horace François Bastien, baron Sébastiani: it seems that Ancona was occupied by France in early 1832. This is not mentioned in the article (in fact, I see that, in general, very little is mentioned in the article), and the sources I used are very explicit about its purpose and effects, but rather vague about length and context. Does anyone have more detail on this? Dahn 22:50, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

message: Remove from :category:Major Cities in Italy. Ancona is not one of Italian Major cities, i.e. it in not in the list of the ten biggest cities for population. --EH101 (talk) 15:38, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

message: Should there be a DISAMBIG distinction to "ancona" as plural of "an ornate altarpiece"? see http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/ancona . This was why *I came to this page.

message: In the text and in the figure legend for the photo of the church of Sant'Agostino entrance, it says that it is 'Gothic'. The Italian Wikipedia article on the church says that the entrance combines Gothic and Renaissance elements. A look at the portal supports this, the figures, the figure niches and the spire-like elements ending in crotchets are Gothic in inspiration, but the Corinthian columns, the round-headed arch and the circular tondo, are all purely Renaissance in origin. The descriptions should reflect this architectural melange. Urselius (talk) 09:00, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
