The infobox has a hidden note "Do not include parents unless notable or they are relevant to the crime". The article doesn't mention that his spouse and children have any connection to a crime so should they be removed? Peter James (talk) 13:22, 29 August 2013 (UTC)Reply
Apologies, I have now removed the information. Thanks for bringing it up. I have left in his spouse as she ran the travel agency cover with him. Thanks, Matty.007 13:47, 29 August 2013 (UTC)Reply

Rancadore was not the "head of a crime family" that was "one of the most powerful mafia associations in Italy made up of thousands of members spreading terror". That makes it sound that he was the head of the Sicilian Mafia, which he was not. He headed the Mafia in the provincial town of Trabia. He was also not on the list of the 30 most wanted criminals in Italy to which there was a link. Italy has several list of most wanted: the 30 most dangerous, the 100 most dangerous, the 500 most dangerous. He was certainly not on the first one and it is unclear on which one he really was. If you only rely on the British press, he seems more important than he really was. A "real" Sicilian Mafia boss like Totò Riina or Bernardo Provenzano has several life sentences, not "just" 7 years. - DonCalo (talk) 18:57, 31 December 2013 (UTC)Reply
I'm afraid that I can only read English refs... Matty.007 19:05, 31 December 2013 (UTC)Reply
Fair enough, however, looking at other sources I find The Guardian is also a lot less sensationalist. I included their reporting as well. - DonCalo (talk) 19:27, 31 December 2013 (UTC)Reply
