Talk:Fabio Lanzoni

message: Removed "The goose was never found, and the case went cold." from the "Other" section of the article. There was no alliteration to this in the source, and the way it was tacked on make it look like a snide remark/vandalism.MechanoidWarhead (talk) 06:31, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

message: Come on now, in England this is virtually all he's known for, thanks to it being replayed ad infinitum on blooper shows. It doesn't even get a passing mention in the trivia?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.56.35.62 (talk) 19:38, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

message: His album was well received?  Having listened to it, I can't imagine that being true.  Needs a reference.  And while I believe he thinks the CD is an embarassment, him saying it needs a reference as well. Nate 18:46, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Did he actually do the writing, or where that ghosted?  Jake b 04:59, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I was wondering the same thing. The way it's written ("'Author' and iconic figure'), it implies that he didn't actually do any writing, which sounds perfectly plausible to me. However, All the article says is that he had a "literary agent," whatever that's supposed to mean in this context. Nothing about ghost writing. What are we supposed to get out of this? 68.57.50.6 (talk) 23:36, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

message: The trivia section says, "While riding the first ride of Apollo's Chariot at Busch Gardens Williamsburg, a stray goose flew into his face during the 210-foot drop."  So will Busch Gardens really let a stray goose take its rides??  140.147.160.78 11:58, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Busch Gardens lets geese ride?? 

message: From the article:
:While riding the inaugural ride of Montu at Busch Gardens Tampa in march 1996 he received a broken nose when small bird hit him in the face and was taken to Tampa General. In 1999, this time on Apollo's Chariot at Busch Gardens Williamsburg, a stray goose flew into his face during the 210-foot drop. The birds died both times.
However, the cited source for this statement only mentions ONE bird.  Is there reliable source somewhere about the first bird-in-the-face incident?  (Assuming there was an earlier incident.)  I mean, what are the odds of the same celebrity being struck in the face by a bird on the inaugural ride of a Busch Gardens attraction TWICE in three years?  That seems so decidedly unusual that it's hard to believe the CNN article wouldn't have even mentioned it.  Lurlock 03:51, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

message: I've repeatedly removed some silly reference that Lanzoni is the "mascot" for some non-notable gaming forum. Please don't re-insert unless there's some indication this has received press coverage or is somehow notable. Kelly hi! 17:22, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I would like to apologize on behalf of Leafre.com for the repeated "silliness" of the mascot mentionings. I've noted to them on several occasions that there was no point, knowing that someone like you is on-guard for Fabio. I am currently figuring out how, if it's even possible, to make this fact "notable." TehSkull (talk) 07:12, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Inappropriate Phrasing 

message: Section Filmography mentions "Big Time Christmas Live" from 1992 and links to "Big Time Rush", which premiered in 2009. There must be an error, however I don't know if only the year is wrong or something else in 1992 was meant...

replies: text: Not mutually exclusive; he is an Italian citizen by birth, and became a naturalized citizen of the US in 2016.  The US does not require renunciation of other citizenships to become a naturalized citizen, and Italy does not automatically revoke one's citizenship when one becomes a citizen of another country, so presumably he is currently a dual citizen of Italy and the US. 2601:283:4301:3D10:593E:2E3C:2ACA:5DA1 (talk) 18:07, 5 December 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Nationality? 

message: The article does now give two dates. 1959 and 1961. Almost every reliable source I've been able to find however gives 1959 as his birth year. The source given for 1961 in the article is a book that's not even about Lanzoni himself but just a brief text among hundreds of other celebrities, Not very reliable imo. And then there is his "official website" that someone mentioned 10 years ago which gives his birth year as 1961. A closer look however gives the impression that's it's a fan site and not his site. Are there any other reliable source that gives 1961 as his birth year? DrKilleMoff (talk) 20:48, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Birth year 

message: Forgive me for complaining about a bad article instead of digging in and fixing it, but I am short on time right now and cannot bring this article into proper encyclopedia style tonight. I will add it to my list of articles that desperately need my attention. Until then, if you are a veteran editor who understands what I mean when I say "encyclopedia style," then I encourage you to please start the work on this article. It reads now like it is a combination press release/biography/fan magazine piece and it is awful. Start with removing the quotations. Encyclopedia style rarely includes quotations. If the information in the quotations is absolutely necessary, paraphrase it, but I doubt any of the quotations are required. I give my word that I will jump in and make this my first Wikipedia priority when I can climb out from under some other volunteer journalism work to which I am committed at this time. All the best to all of you. MarydaleEd (talk) 02:09, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
