The following is an archived discussion of the DYK nomination of the article below. Please do not modify this page. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as
this nomination's talk page,
the article's talk page or
Wikipedia talk:Did you know), unless there is consensus to re-open the discussion at this page. No further edits should be made to this page.
Article is new, both on the English and Italian Wikipedias. Sourcing mainly from books, but the sources that I was able to access freely are from trusted news sources such as Corriere della Sera. A quick glance of the source material in Corriere della Sera tells me that the translation to English is indeed accurate. Prose is long enough and meets NPOV requirements. Photograph leaves just a tad to be desired but considering it is an active excavation site, I imagine other sourced photos might be more difficult to provide at this time. When the artifacts are finally displayed, I think Wikipedia would do well to have some of these photographs in the article. Of course that is well into the future. My vote is .

Comment: Now that the article is on ITN, does that preclude it from being featured again for DYK? It's been a while since I have nominated.

Are there any images of the archaeological finds?

Free images, no. But I can ask my Wikipedian friends who are in Rome (I'm abroad at the moment) to drop by St. Peter's and take a couple of photos (if they will let them in).
