HERITAGE STUDIES AND ICT PROJECT
First of all, I edited my personal page adding some general information about myself both on the English Wikipedia (Rebswing) and on the Italian one (https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utente:Rebswing). As I am very passionate about languages, I also added a "Babel" section on my personal pages.

Description of the contribution
1) About the Corte de' Frati article:

Originally, the article was a stub, so it was basically empty and contained only an infobox with some wrong/non-updated information (e.g. the name of the mayor in charge, the number of inhabitants and so on). In the infobox, I corrected those mistakes and also added a section related to the 'Frazioni' and wrote the right website of the municipality. Secondly, I created a whole new section related to the History of the town, using a book written by Dante Bonometti in 1978, kindly lent by the Biblioteca Comunale of the municipality. From the book, I retrieved the most important and significant events in the history of Corte de' Frati; in fact, as you probably will see, each section goes from X century to XIX century.

Finally, I created three new sections: Economy, Transport and Government, providing some basic information. I also created chart related to the Government of the town, taken from the Italian Wikipedia's page of the municipality. Two photographs taken by me were added.

2) About the Torrazzo of Cremona:

The article was pretty good, but an infobox was missing. I created the infobox using a picture protected by the Creative Commons License, and I added some important information about the location, the style, the year of construction and so on. I also created two specific sections related to the Astronomical Clock and to the Bells, because the main building is also known for its famous clock. Some phrases and information were translated from the Italian page of the Torrazzo. Finally, I corrected some minor mistakes.

3) About the Loggia dei Militi (both on Wikipedia Italia and Wikipedia EN)

On the English page, I created a template/infobox about the building. I added some information about the city's coat of arms. My contribution in the Italian Wikipedia was a little one too, as I did not have the possibility to search for other resources due to the restrictions. I only added some information about the Gonfalone.

Discussions (discussion page, project)
In order to be polite, on the talk page of Corte de' Frati (Talk:Corte de' Frati) I briefly explained my work. The same happened in the Talk page of the Torrazzo (Talk:Torrazzo of Cremona). Unfortunately, no one answered to me, but I hope that my work will be appreciated. Since my contributions the Loggia dei Militi pages were little ones, I decided not to add anything in the Talk page.
