thread_title: Translation

message: One book (M. Girardi "Puccini - His International Art",  )says;
:[Giovinezza] by Mussolini's decree of 21 April 1925 was to precede every theatrical performance in Italy.
Can anybody provide further info on the decree?  Was it really compulsory for ALL
performance, or they played it only when the Duce was present?--2goh 06:50, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  English Translation. 

message: This article failed good article nomination. This is how the article, as of June 21, 2007, compares against the  six good article criteria:
:1. Well written?: Not bad here, but needs some improvement.  Give a brief parenthetical definition of Arditi in the lead section. Also, all italian words should be italicized (eg. Arditi) unless it has widespread in English or has been anglicized (eg. fascist). "Giovinezza" should always be in quotes and never italicized. Also, I noticed a few tiny copyediting issues.  For example, this is a run on sentence and/or might have incorrect punctuation:  I believe it should read, ""Giovinezza" was composed by lawyer and composer Giuseppe Blanc (who wrote other Fascist songs, including "The Eagles of Rome, the Imperial Hymn") in 1909, calling it "Commiato" (Italian for "farewell")." I recommend reading the article out loud to catch sentences like this one.  This is also a run-on sentence:   This sentence doesn't use parallelism  It should read, instead, "which was based on the original score by Giuseppe Blanc with words by...
:This sentence: "at sports, films, and other public events" should read "at films as well as sporting and other public events." A brief explanation (probably in parenthesis) should follow the term "blackshirts." "the allies" should be capitalized.  Major run-on sentence here (an entire paragraph!): 
:There were also some grouping issues in the History section.  Appearances/broadcasts of the song should be mentioned together, and public reactions (or lack thereof) should be grouped together.  Also, there is no clear reason as to why the subheading "Performances and non-performances" exists.  Many performances are mentioned in History as well.  Either merge the two sections, or make the distinction between them clearer.
:Another monster of a run-on sentence:   Also, the second part after the semi-colon is not a complete sentence, and it should be.
:I imagine "Edizione Integrale" means something like essential edition, or greatest hits, but this should be clarified (as should all Italian used in the article, especially when it contributes to meaning). 
:The lyrics must be removed from the article, as they will not go into copyright until 2019.  Please see: WP:COPY.  It is confusing, but the rule in the US, wo we'll go on that. 
:One sentence sections are evil.  Merge it elsewhere or fill it out.
:This fact: Keep it and merge into the body text.
:2. Factually accurate?: 
:3. Broad in coverage?: Not bad, although it would be nice to know what role the song has in modern Italy, or at least post World War II.
:4. Neutral point of view?: Good here.
:5. Article stability? Young article with few edits (might give it some time), but yes, stable. No edit wars to speak of.
:6. Images?: I presume that it is good since it is in Wikicommons.
When these issues are addressed, the article can be resubmitted for consideration.  If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to take it to a GA review.  Thank you for your work so far.

replies: text: I'll address the grammatical and stylistic issues relatively quickly and renominate this. I am cautious about giving too much "context" for Italian terms unless it is directly relevant to the song in question. As for modern Italy, I was unable to find sources for this; I would "ask an Italian" but that might constitute original research. If you can direct me to some sources, I would be glad to incorporate that into the article. Also, I haven't seen Arditi Italicized anywhere; I'm not Italicizing "Marcia Reale" either because its a proper noun. "Edizione Integrale" is the name of the album. I could render my own translation but that'd be Original Research. Savidan 20:13, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Successful [[Wikipedia:Good articles|good article]] nomination

message: Giovinezza is not banned in Italy. Maybe people have been arrested in the post-war period for - and more recently just charged with - singing it, but in most cases they were acquitted: . In 2011 someone proposed singing it in Sanremo Music Festival alongside with Bella ciao. Gianni Morandi stated: «Giovinezza has been performed many times on tv, and nothing clamorous has ever happened» . Actually, the crime of apology of Fascism does not consist in just singing fascist songs, uttering opinions or proclaiming slogans; it consists in pursuing anti-democratic goals by the exhaltation of violence. The Italian Constitution (par. 21) protects freedom of speech and only forbids to re-establish the Fascist Party (final par. XII): that's why the Italian judges most times acquit people charged with apology of Fascism only for singing a song. --Erinaceus (talk) 07:42, 12 May 2015 (UTC)
