 * Comment Gbooks shows the term is used both in the Twlight series and in actual folklore, though not exactly in the same way. For example, a work on shamism in Eastern Europe says this was another way to refer to the benandanti. Much of the sources on the actual folklore are not in English.

 * Comment
 * 1) Fiction (Twlight series) → Stregoni Benefici = Vampires
 * 2) Italian Folklore → Stregoni (pl.) → Stregone/Strega (sin./noun) = Witchcraft/Witch.
 * This isn't the first sloppy research for names in fiction;> As another user had made a determining edit to the article maybe someone wants to develop it (plus Atria (Half vampire), which still misses any advice on fiction.)--Ben Ben (talk) 17:14, 5 December 2010 (UTC)


 * If this cannot be reliably sourced as a term used in the Twilight series (as opposed to the singular Stregone Benefico, which is apparently used therein as a byname of Carlisle Cullen), it should be deleted. If it can be so sourced, I think the best solution is to smerge the sourced content to Twilight (series), since it seems to refer only to the sense in which the term is supposedly used in that series and works dependent on it; add a sourced mention of the alternative name to the Benandanti article; and turn this (moving it to Stregoni benefici, which is currently a redirect to List of Twilight characters) into a dab page with links to both articles. I know that two-entry dab pages are usually frowned on; but since the relevant information would be only a detail in both the Twilight and the benandanti articles, hatnotes don't seem appropriate in this case.
