 * Can we verify this claim that workers across Italy took the day off work because of this? - Richard Cavell (talk) 08:49, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Comment (full disclosure: I started the article) Richard Cavell asked the right question. Unfortunately, I don't have the time to try and search physical newspaper archives right now, so delete it for failing WP:RS if you think that makes WP better. The article is not about memorials, and it doesn't fail WP:ONEEVENT, though -- or would you like to go ahead and delete say Rodney King, too? Same thing. This was a national event at the time in a country that is much smaller and less violent than some others. Rl (talk) 09:32, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Perhaps we could userfy the article to give Rl the time to find the relevant reference? If the event indeed had the effect of large numbers of workers taking the day off, than his attack is notable (and I don't think there's a better title to put an article on the attack under). - Mgm|(talk) 16:47, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I can live with that. Thanks. Rl (talk) 10:57, 2 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Userify until the main claim to fame, "Italians did not turn up for work on the Monday following the event" is verified. NuclearWarfare  contact me My work  23:07, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Redirect/Rename per WP:ONEEVENT, talk about the event, not the person. The "not showing up for work" is a result of the event, not the person. &eta;oian  &Dagger;orever &eta;ew &Dagger;rontiers  09:30, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
