Move article
I would like to suggest to call the overall heading Giulio Cesare Polerio (but not Giulio Polerio). Who can make this/decide this?Gcpolerio (talk) 14:51, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

How to insert this picture at the English page for Giovanni Leonardo? --->Gcpolerio (talk) 14:58, 23 March 2009 (UTC)


 * -) Ok, how understood now, but how to make it smaller, actually it should be inserted at the site of Giovanni Leonardo (and why "Giò Leonardo" is called "di Bona"? "da Cutro" (if needed) is ok.Gcpolerio (talk) 15:14, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Like this. :) Debresser (talk) 15:35, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
 * 150px! :-). Unfortunately, I have still not understood how to "upgrade" the name of the article from Giulio Polerio to Giulio Cesare Polerio. May it be since I'm new here (did read that something like 5 days is required)?! Is it acceptable for Wikipedia to write an article about "Polerio Gambit", or "Polerio Gambits" (claim van der Linde 1874, having effects on the terminology used by e.g. Handbuch des Schachspiels and other theoretical textbooks (in other languages)?Gcpolerio (talk) 18:45, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

"May it be since I'm new here"? Likely. I just did it for you. And updated the redirect pages as well. Debresser (talk) 19:22, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

Years of birth and death
Please note that date of birth (1548) and death (1612), as currently given by Wikipedia, Engl., is a confusion of the dates of Giulio Cesare Polerio (ca. 1550 - ca. 1610) with those of G(J)iacomo BoncompagniGcpolerio (talk) 10:15, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

At the moment it says ca.1550-ca.1610. What do you mean "as currently given"? Debresser (talk) 11:54, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

The "foot" of the page states "Categories: 1548 births | 1612 deaths | Italian chess players | 16th century in chess | Chess biography stubs | Italian sportspeople stubs Hidden categories: All articles with unsourced statements | Articles with unsourced statements since March 2009"Gcpolerio (talk) 14:14, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

Planned articles
@Debresser: I think I want to write 2 special articles which are currently not covered by Wiki. Once (about 6-7 years ago) I planned to do it as a small booklet or so. The articles should be called 'Il Puttino' (and its effect on perception of Italian/Spanish chess of the 15th/16th century in the 19th century in northern Europe. This will be a small one. The second is difficult, but as a Wikipedia article ideal: Codexes of Polerio. The latter will take time (months). Would you like to assist?Gcpolerio (talk) 15:18, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

I'm willing to give technical advice and help, but not the research and actual writing. And to edit away whatever is not up to Wikipedia standards ruthlessly. :) See your talk page. Debresser (talk) 17:51, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
