Bruno Lanteri
I launched a project in late 2013 to start a biographic article on the Italian priest-founder Fr. Bruno Lanteri, currently Venerable. Visit the project page here: User:Paulmnguyen/Lanteri. I hope the writing will proceed smoothly and it can quickly be made available in the various languages indicated on that project page.

Many thanks, –Paul M. Nguyen (chat|blame) 02:49, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
Later What is the GPL and why is it important? (Yes, I know the answer to this)
Later The third paragraph of the History section is actually about KDE and appears to be taken from an article about KDE or desktops
Done I don't think having a gallery in the body of the text is stylistically acceptable
Done The "Future developments" section appears vestigial and extraneous.
Done The "GNOME 3.0" section does not explain why this is an important version that deserves inclusion in the article, considering the main History header is only 3 paragraphs. Remove it?
- fact}} tags
Later Too many lists in the "Project structure" section
Later Too many one-sentence paragraphs
Later Screenshots are too squinty and could be improved

- Thank you! I'll be going over all of that and any dangling issues from the previous PR on my way to FA. Thanks, again! –Paul M. Nguyen (chat|blame) 02:43, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
Later I think it would be useful to explain what KDE is in the start of the History section. The text presupposes a knowledge of these projects. Maury Markowitz (talk) 02:51, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
From Pnm
Pnm made some structural edits to the release history and had two suggestions relating to the release gallery:
Later Provide in the caption a highlight from each release
Later Add an entry for the upcoming 3.0 release (maybe the existing screenshot can just be moved).
Later Also, how about combining the numerous citations to GNOME press releases (in the release table) to one citation that points to http://www.gnome.org/press/releases/ ? Having so many makes the references section more difficult to use, and as primary sources, those citations aren't especially important.
