Removal of flag of Republic of Italy
I removed the Italian Republic flag (of 1946) icon from the Infobox, in accordance with several sections of WP:ICON; specifically (quoting),


 * Generally, flag icons should not be used in infoboxes, even when there is a "country", "nationality" or equivalent field: they are unnecessarily distracting and give undue prominence to one field among many....
 * Flags make simple, blunt statements about nationality, while words can express the facts with more complexity. [The Italian flag used was that of the Republic of Italy, not created until 1946, ignoring the Kingdom of Italy]....
 * Do not rewrite history. Flags should not be used to misrepresent the nationality of a historical figure [including some bishops], event, object, etc. Political boundaries change, often over the span of a biographical article subject's lifetime. Where ambiguity or confusion could result, it is better not to use a flag at all, and where one is genuinely needed, use the historically accurate flag.

Removal of list of parishes
Problems with this section:


 * (1) Individual items are not referenced. The link to a list of parishes on an Italian site was inoperative (and ten years old, and now inaccurate), but it was apparently repaired through the Wayback Machine; however, the Wayback Machine has archived only the first page of the list. I supplied a link to the diocesan web site, where there is a current list of parishes, which ought to be sufficient without the information being repeated in this article.
 * (2) Wiki-links are to Italian communes, not to parishes, and the communes do not mention parishes; the article is not supposed to be a directory to communes in the diocese;
 * (3) doubtful purpose for the list, which the section does not make clear. Is the list notable? Simply because it exists and can be cut-and-pasted, does not make it notable. The individual items are of doubtful importance.
 * (4) The list is long, and if it is to survive at all, it should be spun off as a separate List page.

The list should probably be deleted, unless the problems mentioned can be addressed.
