This article is a bit suspicious. Who's "famous" and who's not? Why do so many of the "famous" people not have articles of their own? Brianjd 08:32, 2004 Nov 16 (UTC) I agree. I came here to do a project and it barely got me any info.:( I think that there should be links to the names so we know that they are real people.

I don't know if Juan Domingo Peron should be included on this list, as he was Argentine of Sardinian ancestry. Because he was not born in Sardinia, I have not included him on the list.

[edit] About Peron & famous people

In reality, nothing is given for sure about his life. In Argentina there are no precise data about him and it is even debated his real birthplace. There is a lack of info. According to some scholars, his real surname would be Piras, a Sardinian surname changed later into Peron. There are over 9,000 link about this debate, try writing "Piras Peron" on google.

You must consider Sardinia as a small island, so some of the people illustrated are not so famous out of the island, or as we usually mean. For example, "amsicora" was also known as "Ampsagora", but there is nothing about Ampsagora on the net. Just on books. This does not mean he never existed, of course. Nick 14:13, 2007 Jan 7 (UTC)
