Tip of the day...

Lead Section Size

The lead section of a Wikipedia article is the section before the first heading. The table of contents, if displayed, generally appears between the lead section and the first subheading.

Rule of thumb: If a topic deserves a heading or subheading, then it deserves short mention in the lead.

The lead section should contain up to four paragraphs, depending on the length of the article, and should provide a preview of the main points the article will make, summarizing the primary reasons the subject matter is interesting or notable. The lead should be capable of standing alone as a concise overview of the article, should be written in a clear and accessible style, should be carefully sourced like the rest of the text, and should encourage the reader to want to read more. The following table has some general guidelines for the length of the lead section:

< 15,000 characters	medium size	> 30,000 characters
one or two paragraphs	two or three paragraphs	three or four paragraphs

Ways to improve Mauro Leonardi

Hi, I'm Mduvekot. Bl-coge, thanks for creating Mauro Leonardi!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Most of the sources are written by the subject. Wikipedia is not interested in what people have to say about themselves. Please find independent, reliable sources.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Mauro Leonardi

It seems to me that all or part of this article is translated from the Italian Wikipedia version of the article. That's fine, but when you do this, you need to state this by adding {{Translated page|it|Mauro Leonardi|small=no}} to the talk page of the English language article. This is a requirement by Wikipedia so that the original writers of the text can be attributed. If you look at the article Margarete Luise Schick, you will see that the creator also mentions the fact that it was translated from the German article in the first edit summary, and that is good practice. If you need any help, please ask. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:10, 20 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
