[edit]

Partito Operaio Italiano translates into "Italian Labour Party", not "Italian Workers' Party". That would be Partito dei Lavoratori Italiani or Partito degli Operai Italiani. However, if there are doubts on translation, we can always start an RfC or a standard discussion. --Checco (talk) 13:59, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Italian Labour PartyItalian Workers' Party – The most correct English translation of "Partito Operaio Italiano" should be "Italian Workers Party", the Italian translation of "Italian Labour Party" is "Partito del Lavoro Italiano" or "Partito Laburista Italiano". The names of other parties similar to this one (with the word "Operaio / ouvrier / obrero" in the name) have been translated with the word "workers" (for example the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party, the French Workers' Party etc.). Finally, almost all of the English sources refer to this party as "Italian Workers' Party" (Rosengarten, Frank (2013). The Revolutionary Marxism of Antonio Gramsci. RILL. p. 186.; Hecker, Sharon (2011). A Moment's Monument. Univ of California Press. p. 11.; Castelli, Alberto (2018). The Peace Discourse in Europe, 1900-1945. Routledge.; Sarti, Roland (2009). Italy: A Reference Guide from the Renaissance to the Present. Infobase Publishing. p. 362.; Cole, George Douglas Howard (1960). The second international, 1889-1914. Macmillan. p. 714.; Killinger, Charles L. (2002). Gaetano Salvemini: A Biography. Praeger. p. 37.; Archivi biblioteca attività scientifica. Fondazione Feltrinelli. 1998. p. 15.; Lane, A.T. (1995). Biographical Dictionary of European Labor Leaders. Greenwood Publishing Group. p. 549.), I have found only very few sources that refer to it as "Italian Labour Party" (Olcelli, Laura (207). Questions of Authority. Routledge. and other two books without preview). I believe that this page should be moved both for consistency with the title of other pages and for the principle of the most common name. Scia Della Cometa (talk) 17:35, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

E pur si muove. Scia Della Cometa makes a compelling argument. This should move.Captain Macheath (talk) 18:37, 14 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
