Titles

[edit]

Why do all the articles have "of Rome" in their title? Wouldn't just "(rione)" be enough? 216.8.129.17 (talk) 20:34, 20 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No, because "Rione" is a common denomination for ancient quarters in Italy. Alex2006 (talk) 04:57, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Coat of Arms of the modern rioni section is misleading

[edit]

Most of these images (none of which give their proper original source on Commons) appear to be from a printed book published in the early 19th century. They are not an accurate reflection of the coats of arms used today. See for example File:Rome rione III colonna (logo).svg, whose description I have recently updated on Commons. It bears no relation to the modern coat of arms for Colonna, which actually looks like this. Voceditenore (talk) 08:33, 18 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
