[edit] Milan

Article calls them Milan, AC Milan and Milan FC. Consistency needed, or historically valid anachronisms? --Dweller 16:09, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Okay, okay, give me a chance! I'm going to copy edit the various anachronisms as soon as I've finished the history section! But thanks... no, really, thanks! The Rambling Man 16:19, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Spezia

Listed as 1944 winners with an unexplained asterisk in one list and skipped in the others. I assume it's unofficial, so remove? --Dweller 16:50, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Ahah... now then, the 1944 title is a bit special. I have in mind to work this into the article in a nice way. But well pointed out. It'll be dealt with. Perhaps I need a To-do list here...! The Rambling Man 22:10, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
1944 now referred to in the text... The Rambling Man 10:59, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Trophy

You really need an image of the scudetto trophy, don't you? --Dweller 10:40, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

I've tried looking, nothing doing. However, compared with English football champions, another featured list, it doesn't appear mandatory. The Rambling Man 10:57, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
Definitely not mandatory, but would be nice. Can I suggest a request for help at the Italian language Wikipedia? --Dweller 11:31, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
I've placed a request on Requested Images, it's going to be tough I think. Hopefully the English page has set the precedent... The Rambling Man 11:49, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Article name

Is it worth moving this to List of... as the article really is listesque. The opening words of the lead could be less tortuous too! --Dweller 10:51, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Okay, but then you'd need to move the other "X football champions" as well to keep consistency wouldn't you? I've only done this to keep consistency with current articles... The Rambling Man 10:58, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
Urk. OK. The opening words are horrid... I'll see if I can make it any better. --Dweller 11:32, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
Yes, lead is poor, agreed. Pretty much based verbatim on Danish football champions. Tweak away. The Rambling Man 11:50, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
Better? --Dweller 13:42, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
Definitely... thanks! The Rambling Man 13:45, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sicily

Sicily has never won an Italian championship. I'm a little surprised. I wonder how close Sicily has gotten. It also appears like Italy's eastern half is dominated by the western half. Ffda (talk) 18:28, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
