Currently, the "Acerbo Law" subsection claims that this law "granted a two-thirds majority of the seats in Parliament to the party or group of parties that received at least 25% of the votes". This is suspicious: what if there are at least 2 alliances gaining, each, 25% of the votes? Does each of them receive a 2/3 majority of the seats? This would clearly be mathematically impossible.
Furthermore, this subsection cites the document "Italy and the Antitrust Law: an Efficient Delay?" by Federico Boffa, but I have not been able to find any mention therein of the provision of the law in the terms described above.
In light of the above, I suggest to completely delete the sentence "It also granted a two-thirds majority of the seats in Parliament to the party or group of parties that received at least 25% of the votes", since it seems to be factually wrong. 109.98.44.53 ( talk) 12:40, 21 July 2023 (UTC)

In the "Foreign policy" subsection, it is currently written: "[...] ordering every Italian woman to double the number of children that they were willing to bear".
Given that the sentence is about women (in the singular), please change "they" into "she"'.
Alternatively, keep the "they" pronoun, but then please change the singular "woman" into the plural "women".
Either change is correct, but the current formulation is not. 109.98.44.53 ( talk) 14:32, 21 July 2023 (UTC)

There's been some back and forth over the lead image again, so I figured it couldn't hurt to open up a new discussion thread. This was last discussed a couple years ago ( here) but no clear consensus was achieved.
For reference, here are the two images that have recently been used:
I'm not crazy about either of them, frankly, and have no strong opinion as to which is better. But I see that others do have opinions on the matter, so it would be good to try to establish a consensus if possible. Generalrelative ( talk) 01:14, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
