replies: text: I wrote most of it and can provide citations. "Medieval commune" is just a way to disambig from "commune", which has many broader modern meanings. It can certainly justify its own article, the title doesnt impart original research, any more than "medieval science" is original research. Stbalbach 04:29, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

text: Perhaps a good place to begin to take the bloom off one's perfect innocence in this area would be to Google "medieval commune" and read a little bit about the phenomenon called the "rise of the communes". Why not?  ...but how could one actually arrive at any opinion one way or the other under the circumstances, one wonders?  --Wetman 07:38, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

text: Since the communes of Central Italy and the Po valley arose about the same time as those in the Low Countries, to suggest priority would be invidious, and to divide the story in two would lose information, perhaps the normal heading "Medieval commune" as it appears in titles of articles etc could stand. --20:37, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

message: Making some changes, explaining rational here:
#or with an entrepreneurial spirit - I think the word entrepreneurial contains modern assumptions that wouldnt hold true for the medieval period.
#where examples provided Henri Pirenne with a thesis he too widely applied - this  is an interesting aside and opinion that perhaps many (but not all) may agree with, but Im not sure Henri Pirenne's thesis, and the debates therein, is directly relevant to communes to warrant a mention. Perhaps theres some connection here im not aware if so it needs expansion.
#re-ordering of sections (physical protection first) and integration of repeated origin material.

replies: text:  speaking of Henri Pirenne there is very little about Flanders or the Low Countries in this article and they are arguably as important as Italy, much more should be added  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.1.191.34 (talk) 15:16, 12 August 2016 (UTC)

message: The word "Commune" does not exist as such, the exact word is COMUNE, that's why Wikipedia is not reliable, because it tries to anglicize medieval italian words of which it completely ignores its meaning and history. You can't change COMUNE into Commune because only a simple guy without any relevant cultural background could do that. That's why Wikipedia is condemned to self destruction because it's a dictatorship of ignorant deaf people and not a "free encyclopedia" made by people in the know. Shame on you!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.7.20.63 (talk) 10:46, 16 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Of course the Italian word is comune, but this is the Wikipedia in English and if you look into any English language dictionary you will discover that it is spelled with two M’s. Try reading some medieval history in English, and you will discover that this spelling (of the English word, which translates both the Italian comune and the cognate French term commune) is used by historians who are far from simple, far from common, and highly knowledgeable about medieval Italian history.
