Importance edit

Rupnik is considered to be among the top living mosaic artists. He has an international reputation as both a mosaic artist, and as a theologian. Currently this article needs to fill out (expand) that part of his life. It also needs an {{Infobox artist}} template. --Bejnar (talk) 22:10, 12 December 2022 (UTC)Reply

Totally agree, unfortunately I'm utterly ignorant about wikipedia Templates. In the meanwhile I'll expand with what I find Odisseo99 (talk) 11:36, 18 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

List of Italian newspapers of record; avoid online religious gossip blogs. edit

I there, I'm an Italian and I wanted only to point out the risks of using Italian religious ultra-conservative blogs. Of course we have a bunch of them and usually they're the equivalent of UK tabloids as for the journalistic standards adopted. They don't search for double or triple sources before publishing a news, they have sensationalistic and misleading headlines, they make short articles full of factual errors etc. The most famous ones are "Silere non possum", "Messa in latino", "La nuova bussola" and "Il timone". Simply avoid them.

If you want to be sure of the news about the Vatican, the various big European media are as good as usual (European division of Associated Press, The Economist, Financial Times, BBC, France24 etc).

The State of Vatican has its own media agency, called Vatican News. It has also its own newspaper of record, called "L'Osservatore Romano".

Italian newspapers of record are Corriere, Sole 24 Ore, La Repubblica, La Stampa. The last two are smaller and a bit less reliable; given that usually Italian newspapers have already lower standards compared to the international media, I suggest only Corriere and Sole 24 Ore.

Also Il Post is very good. It's an online newspaper that collects all the references about a news and then writes exclusively articles of explanation. It was praised by The New Yorker a few months ago ("The man who explains Italy" https://www.newyorker.com/culture/persons-of-interest/the-man-who-explains-italy) Odisseo99 (talk) 20:42, 17 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
