This article could use some work as well as some grammatical fixes. I'll see if I have time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.65.226.197 (talk) 11:23, April 4, 2007

Why is Doria a "solider of fortune" and Barbarossa a "privateer"? They would seem to have been two sides of the same cloth. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.118.158.198 (talk) 02:02, May 22, 2007

The article has errors. For instance, it should read that Andrea Doria, in his last action, was victorious and conquered the island of Corsica for Genoa.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 143.115.159.54 (talk) 13:53, July 14, 2007

Andrea Doria and disambiguation

edit

Would anyone object if I moved this page and made Andrea Doria going to the SS Andrea Doria? I suspect that most searches for "Andrea Doria" are looking for that boat. JoshuaZ (talk) 20:53, 15 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

I certainly wouldn't mind; I was going to suggest the same. SS Andrea Doria is clearly the WP:PRIMARY TOPIC for "Andrea Doria". 21:31, 14 September 2010 (UTC)
Absolutely not. In Italian history, Andrea Doria the commander is far prominent. --'''Attilios''' (talk) 21:37, 14 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

futue te ipsum means "go fuck yourself", more or less, does it help to have the phrase in latin? does it even need to be in there? i think not, given that it doesn't do anything to aid understanding of the man.

and if it is going to be in there then the english translation should be in there too/instead of.
