[edit] San Galgano

I rolled back the link to The Abbey of San Galgano. See Talk:The Abbey of San Galgano. --Evan 11:34, 5 January 2007 (EST)

[edit] Deleted Sleep listings

This guy has deleted a number of sleep listings without comment. Have they been moved to the right place? Jpatokal 07:29, 24 July 2007 (EDT)

He/she seems to have deleted them a couple of times before as well. Two of the listings are suspect but the first two seem ok. I'll restore them for now.--Wandering 09:03, 24 July 2007 (EDT)

The following was moved off the article page. Listings should be in the towns, if towns don't exist, start them. OldPine 20:06, 14 August 2007 (EDT)

  • Villa Il Doccio Cicogna, Tuscany, Italy. A beautiful restored farmhouse with 4 units to rent. Accommodates up to 15 people very comfortably. Includes access to pool and hot tub. There is a large veranda for outdoor dining that overlooks the vineyard. Close to all the major attractions in central Tuscany.
  • Casa di Vignolo Pergine Valdarno, Tuscany, Italy. The oldest part of the building was built in the 1400's. Fully restored while maintaining the 'old world' charm you'd expect from such an old building. Located in the small town of Pergine Valdarno where there is a good restaurant, bakery, pharmacy, butcher, grocery store and bank.
  • listing deleted from page as the URL is now blacklisted - see previous revision for details
  • Casa Burraia Charming country house near Montepulciano, swimmingpool and Gym. Parking by the house.
  • Agriturismo Several country holidays and agriturismo solutions to sleep across all Tuscany.

[edit] Cities

Time to prune the list of cities? My top nine candidates are:

Comments? Changes? --Wandering 13:48, 8 January 2008 (EST)

I agree more or less. I haven't been to Chiusi, Montepulciano, Pienza or San Gimignano, but I know at least San Gimignano deserves to be in there. I would perhaps still add Viareggio to the list. Timo Laine 06:31, 18 June 2008 (EDT)

Posted 27th of June 2009 I find Piombino quite interesting all year around, this town has really got it all.

The pages listed in the Provinces section are the same pages as those for the cities. I think new pages for each province should be created, such as Arezzo (Province). The cites and other destinations would then need to be added to the correct province page. It will then be possible to prune the list of cities.Chris1515 10:00, 4 August 2009 (EDT)
Indeed, the cities list is too long—time to subdivide into regions. After creating the province articles, it would be good to prune the list to nine cities, and the above recommended list seems fine to me. --Peter Talk 14:18, 4 August 2009 (EDT)
I have now created the province pages and copied all the cities to these province pages. I have pruned the cites list to the 9 suggested above. A number of sub-regions for Tuscany have been created in the past. Those that are entirely within one province have been moved to that province. These still need some rationalisation which I will try to do.Chris1515 11:59, 20 August 2009 (EDT)
