Italian Co-Belligerent Army: were still ideologically Fascist?
When Victor Emmanuel III of Italy kicked Mussolini out of the Italian government after the vote of no confidence at the Grand Council of Fascism and a replacement government was formed. These disenters of Mussolini were still technically ideologically fascist until the end right? or is there evidence to suggest they ever rebuked it after July 24, 1943? I'm talking about Pietro Badoglio, Galeazzo Ciano, Dino Grandi, the main players.

The Italian Co-Belligerent Army who fought on the side of the Allies, along with the Italian leftists, are usually described as just "royalist", but technically isn't "fascist royalist" a more correct way to describe their allingment and technical political stance? - Gennarous (talk) 23:58, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

People jumping the gun to update articles in accordance with the election results
Just a reminder that people need to keep an eye on articles like Silvio Berlusconi, Romano Prodi, Prime minister of Italy, Template:Politics of Italy, List of prime ministers of Italy, etc., to make sure they are not changed to assert things that are not yet true (such as saying that Berlusconi is presidente del consiglio).

There is currently a somewhat problematic edit at Template:Politics of Italy, claiming that Berlusconi is "Prime Minister-designate". I'm not sure what to do about that one -- I understand the intent, but it doesn't seem formally correct to me. Who supposedly "designated" him? Not the voters -- their votes were for parties, not for the presidenza del consiglio. And Napolitano has presumably not yet asked Berlusconi to form a government. --Trovatore (talk) 01:01, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

List of basic Italy topics
A new table of contents has been added to Wikipedia for Italy-related subjects. It's part of the Lists of basic topics set.

It needs proofreading, copy-editing, fact checking, format refinement, image placement, etc.

It falls under the scope of WikiProject Italy, so put it on your watchlists, todo lists, and maintenance lists.

My guess is that Japan has the best list. That's what you are competing against.

Good luck.

Could anyone help with this translation please? Thanks. Neddyseagoon - talk 13:46, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Italian cabinets
There is a big mistake in the count of cabinets. This is the official list from the official website. So for example Berlusconi will probably start his forth cabinet, not his third. Paolotacchi (talk) 13:29, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
