[edit] Merge the articles

There are now 3 articles about the Italian Army ranks: One has all ranks, but no text (Italian Army Ranks), the two other have text, but lack all the Warrant Officers. These three articles need to be merged in one. If no one else does it, I will do it- BUT I would like to know first what layout style should be used: either the one in Italian Army Ranks, which I translated from the Italian version or should it be in this style: Spanish Army Ranks??? noclador 22:34, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

Mhmm, both the versions give some informations that the other don't give. So I don't know... choose the one you like best and merge the missed informations. --F l a n k e r 11:39, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Italian Army homepage:

These are the current and official ranks of the Italian Army. All other rank insignias are FAKE!! --noclador 19:49, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Protection

I have protected this article and the template for 7 days. I hope either contact the other and discuss. If, by the time the protection expires, either continues edit warring, I would consider blocking you due three revert rule violation. -- ReyBrujo 19:48, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Since it appears one of the sides is a sockpuppet of a banned user, I am lowering this to semiprotection. -- ReyBrujo 00:19, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
