Review comments
[edit]Lead section / infobox
[edit]- Unlink United States; World War I (MOS:OL].
- Done Unlinked. --Grnrchst (talk) 19:14, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- Fascism generally has no capitals.
- Done De-capitalised. --Grnrchst (talk) 19:14, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- Link reformist socialists (Reformism#Socialism).
- Done Moved link over, de-linked second instance of reformism. --Grnrchst (talk) 19:14, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- Luigi Galleani (1906) - I would amend the caption in the infobox to ‘A 1906 police photograph of Galleani’
- Done Amended. --Grnrchst (talk) 19:14, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- There is no need to link Italy twice in the infobox.
- The reason they're linked is because one links to the Kingdom of Italy and the other to Fascist Italy (1922–1943). How should I proceed? --Grnrchst (talk) 19:14, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- I see. I would then replace the first Italy with 'Kingdom of Italy'. The second Italy I would leave unlinked as 'Kingdom of Italy', and not bother to use the separate link. Amitchell125 (talk) 07:20, 16 July 2023 (UTC)
- Done Replaced with "Kingdom of Italy" in both cases. --Grnrchst (talk) 12:28, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Early life
[edit]- Pietro Gori needs to be introduced.
- Done Introduced as "Sicilian anarchist" --Grnrchst (talk) 19:18, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- On August 12, 1861, Luigi Galleani - ‘Luigi Galleani was born on 12 August, 1861’ sounds better imo.
- Done Rearranged. Although I've retained MDY for now. Should I use DMY for the article instead? --Grnrchst (talk) 19:18, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- Yes. Personally (and I think others would agree), I think DMY work well as the numbers are separated by text. Amitchell125 (talk) 16:50, 16 July 2023 (UTC)
- Link anarchism.
- Done --Grnrchst (talk) 19:18, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

- Add a comma after in Vercelli (minor point).
- However, relations between the anarchists and the POI were again worsening – consider amending to something like ‘Relations between the anarchists and the POI worsened’, to improve the prose.
- Done Rewritten per your suggestion. --Grnrchst (talk) 19:27, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- In 1889 - ‘threatened him with arrest in 1889, he fled’ or ‘threatened him with arrest, in 1889 he fled’?
- Done Removed comma, per suggestion. --Grnrchst (talk) 19:27, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
Exile
[edit]- Link conspiracy; extradition.
- Done Linked. --Grnrchst (talk) 19:32, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- Link Fatti di Maggio (Bava Beccaris massacre). The words are Italian, and so need to be in italics.

- Salvatore is not notable, and so need not be distinguished from his siblings by being mentioned by name.
- Done Removed. --Grnrchst (talk) 19:32, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

Life in the United States
[edit]- Duplicate link - capitalism.
- Done Removed. --Grnrchst (talk) 19:41, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

- Done Combined. --Grnrchst (talk) 19:41, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- Link stonemasons (Stonemasonry); labor unionism (Labor unions in the United States); chemical formula. Is this the right term? On its own, the formula would have been insufficient to enable anyone to produce the explosive.

- Done Removed. --Grnrchst (talk) 19:41, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- Arrested, he was brought back to Paterson and tried – ‘He was arrested and tried’?
- I think it needs to specify that he was taken to Paterson. --Grnrchst (talk) 19:41, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- Understood. AM
- Galleani is mentioned by name 15 times in this section, which is excessive. Once per paragraph? (This comment could apply elsewhere.)
- I'll go through the article and try to cut down on excessive uses of his name. --Grnrchst (talk) 19:41, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- Done Removed most of the cases I came across and replaced with pronouns. I think I should have cut down on the most excessive uses. --Grnrchst (talk) 19:47, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

- Done Clarified to "His anti-war activities". --Grnrchst (talk) 19:54, 15 July 2023 (UTC)

- Done Clarified. --Grnrchst (talk) 19:54, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- Unlink Mexico.
- Done Unlinked. --Grnrchst (talk) 19:54, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- police surveillance – police seems unnecessary, as the police are mentioned again a little further on.
- Done Removed "police". --Grnrchst (talk) 19:54, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
Political ideology
[edit]- Duplicate links - anarcho-communism; reformist; propaganda of the deed; assassination of William McKinley.

Legacy

- The rest of the paragraph goes onto describe that. Does it need further clarification? --Grnrchst (talk) 20:10, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
- I think of the dates of the bombings, how many attacks took place, and a mention of how devastating they were would be useful. Amitchell125 (talk) 07:37, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

- which killed 33 people - I would check this number, as not all the sources agree with it.
- Cited source does say "causing an explosion that killed 33 persons". It is itself citing the following sources:

- Done Reformatted per manual of style. --Grnrchst (talk) 10:58, 16 July 2023 (UTC)
See also

External links
[edit]- GALLEANI – no capitals should be used
- The section needs to be checked to make sure the titles match the actual websites, as they don’t all do this at present.
- I decided to remove this section, as it was either links to Galleani's writings that are already mentioned or about the Galleanisti. --Grnrchst (talk) 11:03, 16 July 2023 (UTC)
