Before you proceed any further, we need to figure out if there is a legitimate need for this list. The concern is that "treasures" is subjective, so this list is just basically "Italian pieces of art that I like". A more formal list would be something like "List of Italian artworks held in the Louvre", or "List of Italian artworks recognised by UNESCO at Tangible Human Treastures" or whatnot. Such lists have clear and indisputable parameters (a given item is either in the Louvre, or on the UNESCO list, or it isn't, there's no in-between).

Please don't be dissuaded, we can certainly find some ways to get good use of your interest in this topic, but this particular draft list is maybe not the direction we need to go. I would strongly suggest you go to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Visual arts, introduce yourself, give them the link to this draft, and ask them how you can maybe make some use of this content and/or your interest in the subject. Good luck, and I hope this initial redirecting of your energies won't discourage you. MatthewVanitas (talk) 19:07, 5 July 2013 (UTC)
