Hello, thanks for the comment. Can you tell me how correcting the nationality, for example, of Vincenzo Bellini, can be construed as a "personal agenda"? Bellini was born in 1801 in the Kingdom of Sicily and died in 1835 in the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. No state, nation or kingdom called "Italy" existed at his birth or death. Napoleon's "Kingdom of Italy" existed only in the north, far from Bellini's homeland, and only during the years 1805 - 1814. This is not "original research", it is FACT, and I would think an encyclopedia would want to publish FACT. Bellini was not Italian, he was Sicilian. Wikipedia lists Cicero as "a Roman philosopher" and Julius Caesar as "a Roman general". To be consistent with its misrepresentation of Bellini's nationality, shouldn't Wikipedia call Cicero and Julius Caesar Italians? SugnuSicilianu (talk) 15:51, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
