Suggestions

@LIUCsmarties, LIUCemmi05, Liuclucy008, Liucedoardo08, Liucmarti08, Ascanio10, and Bodinsky:

I would add a geology section to the page.

Liucmarti08 (talk) 16:46, 15 November 2024 (UTC)

That's a great idea, I could add one for the climate too if it's useful LIUCsmarties (talk) 16:48, 15 November 2024 (UTC)

The See Also section needs to be fixedLiucmarti08 (talk) 16:51, 15 November 2024 (UTC)

done Liucedoardo08 (talk) 16:35, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

@Bodinsky: I think we should remove the part about Rifugio Kubelek in the introduction because it could be promotional content. I have checked other Wiki pages and I think it is not the right place LIUCsmarties (talk) 10:50, 18 November 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for your feedback, I will remove it. Bodinsky (talk) 16:33, 18 November 2024 (UTC)

the Sub-heading World War I should be separate from the History section? given its vast subject matter and having also the sub-section on the trenches it might make sense to separate the vast argument of WWI from the History heading and create a separate heading just on the War. Or is it better to leave it where is it now under the history heading?Liuclucy008 (talk) 09:03, 19 November 2024 (UTC)

Honestly, I think it should remain under the History section since it's part of it. Maybe, since it's important, we could make a bigger sub-heading to highlight it LIUCsmarties (talk) 16:07, 20 November 2024 (UTC)

I agree, I think it should remain a part of the History section. Bodinsky (talk) 14:45, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

If you add images please make sure to centre them properly and check in case you move other images already present. Bodinsky (talk) 11:02, 21 November 2024 (UTC)

Is the sub-heading "educational farms" promotional? LIUCemmi05

If you added the part about "Educational Farms" please remove it since it is promotional and it is not related to Monte Zovetto, thank you. Bodinsky (talk) 11:00, 21 November 2024 (UTC)

Plese add reference in the Brigata Liguria monument section since there is only one.Bodinsky (talk) 15:06, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

I found an image that could be a good example of how the common use of lands I mentioned in the History section works. It is a sign placed in a forest in Roana. Do you think I should add it since Monte Zovetto is part of Roana Municipality or is it better to not put it there since it is not directly taken on Monte Zovetto? LIUCsmarties (talk) 11:06, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

I think it depends. It would be better to include only the images taken on Monte Zovetto, but in my opinion, if the one you're referring to is related to essential information about the mountain and is useful for understanding the concept, it could work. Maybe specifying in the caption that the image was taken near Monte Zovetto would be enough to make it acceptable. Liucmarti08 (talk) 23:06, 26 November 2024 (UTC)

I would remove the part on Tenuta Guida since it may be considered promotional and it is not particularly relevant since it is relative to Lison di Portogruaro. LIUCsmarties (talk) 19:42, 26 November 2024 (UTC)

I agree Liucedoardo08 (talk) 10:41, 27 November 2024 (UTC)

• See Also's: not all these are appropriate for this section, and also duplicate links in the page. At least 3 should be removed. See Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Layout#"See_also"_section for guidance.
• External links section: See Wikipedia:external links and understand what goes here as opposed to reference links
• Categories: Need adding prior to submission. See Help:categories
• Grammar: 'german-speaking'; 'coverage for the troups, '; 'surrounded by obstacloes '; 'the soldies '; 'the British cemetery it's just one out five '; 'This cemeteries, in which are'; ' takes care and guarantees conservation. '; 'ecalls at the heroic actions '; etc.
• style:
  • avoid subjective, redunant and biased language. See section on Vocabulary in Wikipedia:Manual of Style and Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Words to watch e.g. 'the Cimbrian language appeared on the mount[9].'; 'more specifically'; 'it also hosts '; 'Initially, '; 'gradually establishing themselves.'; 'this heroic brigade '; etc.
  • consistently provide English translations and a consistent format for non-English terms e.g. '"Edicola alla Brigata Liguria "; etc.
  • the section on Rifugio Kubelek needs rewriting to remove promotional content and correct grammar, over-linking and duplicate links
• Images:
  • image captions can be improved to make page relevance clear e.g. 'Monument on Monte Zovretto dedicated to Brigata Liguria', etc.
  • image proximity to relevant adjacent text: Monument dedicated to Brigata Liguria can be left justified to be in Monuments section
  • non-English terms need a translation e.g. caption 'Italian-Austrian "degli abeti mozzi" cemetery, which also needs better grammar and the location including
  • the image 'British trenches and fortifications in the First World War, in Cesuna di Roana. Today part of the Great War Ecomuseum in the Vicenza Pre-Alps' is better located in the lower sub-section on trenches, perhaps with the last 2 sentences of the the world war 1 text and the bit about the Ecomuseum (instead of this in the long caption). 'Today' needs removing from the image caption.
• note and comply with the guidelines and good practice on lead (introductory) sections and look at good practice other pages. They do not have an 'Introduction'. See: Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lead section. Use this to develop this section. See also Wikipedia:Writing_better_articles#Lead_section. The text here on etymology is not appropriate, but this could go at the start of the History section.
• structure:
  • needs a section on Geography/Location, defining and describing the specific location and relationship to surroundings. Some of the lead section text can be used and developed here
  • a section on Geology may be relevant
  • Nature should come after History, and have a better Section heading
  • is Trekking part of Tourism, or a seperate section? Perhaps a Section on Tourism and Recreational Activities, with a sub-section on Trekking? And mountain biking? And is Trekking' the correct word here, or Walking Routes/Trails?
  • it is unclear how the dairy farm relates to Tourism
• Cultural references:
  • is 'Monte Zovretto in Literature' a better sub-heading then 'Literature'?
  • for the 2 works, say a bit about how Monte Zovretto features in them
• content:
  • is there any 'climbing'? where?
  • remove ' (punitive expedition was used precisely to emphasize the 'betrayal' of the former ally) '
  • the mention the roman column indicating the spot where the action of Italian brigades Forlì and Liguria took place in better in Monuments, not Trekking.

• no External links section

  • mainly in Italian. Try to balance these with more English sources
  • be consistent in stating Italian sources

@LIUCsmarties, LIUCemmi05, Liuclucy008, Liucedoardo08, Liucmarti08, Ascanio10, and Bodinsky:

• General Comments
  • Contextual Relevance: While the draft is rich in detail, some sections (e.g., Flora and Fauna) still feel generic and lack direct relevance to Monte Zovetto. Focus on unique ecological or historical aspects.
  • Duplication: The history section contains repeated references to the same events (e.g., the "Strafexpedition" and World War I). Consider merging overlapping content for clarity and conciseness.
  • Focus: Certain parts, such as "Tourism" and "Walking Routes," read like a travel guide. Ensure all sections maintain an encyclopedic tone.
• External Links

No new external links section has been added. This is a key omission; include links to authoritative websites related to Monte Zovetto (e.g., local government or historical archives).

• References
  • Balance of Sources: The imbalance of Italian and English references persists. Integrate additional English-language sources, especially for international relevance.
  • Formatting: Several citations remain incomplete or improperly formatted:
    • Ref 10: Missing details on publication type and author credentials.
    • Ref 27: Needs publisher and page numbers.
    • Ref 54: Lacks access date and formatting consistency.
  • Unreliable Sources: Refs 40 and 60 remain questionable. Replace with more credible academic or government sources.
• Images
  • Captions: New captions need editing for clarity and conciseness:
    • "Cyclamen, a typical flower that grows on Monte Zovetto" → "Cyclamen flower on Monte Zovetto."
    • "Kestrel that can be found on Monte Zovetto" → "A kestrel in the Monte Zovetto area."
  • Relevance: Some images (e.g., flora and fauna) still lack direct ties to Monte Zovetto. Ensure each image supports the main narrative.
  • Infobox Portrait: Consider including a representative image of Monte Zovetto in the infobox for visual appeal and relevance.
• Style
  • Grammar:
    • "tolalm length" should be "total length."
    • "teh trenches" should be "the trenches."
    • "resistence" should be "resistance."
  • Neutrality: New content in sections like "Malga Zovetto" and "Rifugio Kubelek" still contains promotional language. Rewrite for neutrality.
    • Example: "The farm is particularly productive thanks to the favorable conditions of the territory and fertile soil" → "The farm operates in fertile soil conditions typical of the region."
  • Conciseness: Reduce wordy descriptions, especially in Activities and Walking Routes sections.
• Specific Section Feedback
  • Geology
    • New additions about sedimentary formations are detailed but overly technical. Consider summarizing key points and focusing on their connection to Monte Zovetto.
  • History
    • The Roman and medieval sections are expanded but still overlap. Consolidate repeated references to historical figures like Berengar I and Charlemagne.
    • Avoid speculation: Phrases like "the Romans may have organized the area as ager publicus" should be clarified or omitted if unsupported by evidence.
  • Legends and Mysteries
    • The "Billar Man" legend is engaging but overly long. Summarize the narrative while retaining its cultural significance. @LIUCemmi05: done
  • Flora and Fauna
    • The section remains dense with technical details. Focus on how the area's unique ecosystem reflects its geography and climate.
    • Remove lists of plants and animals unless they are specific to Monte Zovetto (e.g., parnassius butterflies).
  • Tourism
    • The "Rifugio Kubelek" and "Malga Zovetto" sections still read like promotional content. Highlight their historical or cultural relevance instead.
    • Consider removing mentions of wine production and restaurant menus unless tied to broader regional significance.

Walking Routes

• • • The new descriptions of hiking trails are well-structured but still overly detailed. Focus on the historical and ecological significance of these paths rather than logistical information. @LIUCemmi05: done
  • War Cemeteries
    • This section is detailed and relevant but could include more context about the soldiers commemorated (e.g., their nationalities and contributions).
• Linking
  • New Issues: Some additional links are unnecessary (e.g., "marmot," "Cyclamen"). Ensure links add value and avoid linking common terms.
• New Notes
  • Formatting: Consistency across headings is still lacking. Standardize capitalization (e.g., "Magnaboschi valley-Monte Zovetto Hiking Trail" → "Magnaboschi Valley–Monte Zovetto Hiking Trail").
  • Content Length: The article remains lengthy and could benefit from trimming repetitive or tangential sections.
  • Summary: A concise summary table for major historical events (e.g., wars, Roman occupation) could help readers navigate the content more easily.

Greentree97 (talk) 14:06, 26 November 2024 (UTC)

• the section on the museum at Roana may be better moving to the existing page on Roana. It is a difficult one as the museum clearly contains artefacts from Monte Zovretto and is on the periphery of the hill. I would say that because the museum is located in Roana and already mentioned on the Roana page this content should be moved there, with a relevant link to the Monte Zovretto page.
• I have removed the table at the start of History as the table of contents menu provides this structure and navigation
• there is a lot of generic content in both the geology and history sections that relates to the wider area rather than Monte Zovretto itself
• I have made c.50 minor edits to tidy it up for the review process.

• Comment: Where is the uncited information from? It should be either sourced or removed. -- NotCharizard ^🗨 10:19, 5 December 2024 (UTC)

Miscellaneous fixes

• Within the article, be consistent in usage of Monte Zovetto or Mount Zovetto; my suggestion would be to rename to "Mount Zovetto" and create a redirect from "Monte Zovetto".
• Correct typo: herbaveous (herbaceous?)
• word usage: "people leaving the area to Germany ..."; replace "to" with a different preposition, or perhaps change to "people migrating to ..."
• Use a standard date format for enwiki, e.g. day-month-year format (no ordinals, 4-digit years) or American date format (see MOS:Date).
• Suggest revising this peculiar claim: "... population of approximately 4,299 residents"
• Add {{interlanguage link}} or a wikilink for the following (consider this as just a sampling):
  • Alfonso Samoggia
  • Battle of the Piave River (Second Battle of the Piave River)
  • Brigata "Liguria"
  • Cesuna
  • Giovanni Omboni
  • Giuseppe Rusca
  • Maurice Tucker
  • Monte Lemerle
  • neptunidraco (stenosaurus barettoni)
