Phew! Need to take a break from this...[edit]

Greetings whoever reads this... I've been working on this steady for a couple of days, and now I need to take a break. Not sure how long this can sit here unattended before ... ? ... it gets deep-sixed or something. Anyway, just so you know... -- Winterskunk (talk) 04:39, 6 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Umberto Colombo article[edit]

Starting point for this article was the Umberto Colombo article at it.wikipedia.org->Google Translate->English speaker edits->small amount of additional info based on a few new sources were added. Um, is there anything I need to do to be onside copyright-wise? --Winterskunk (talk) 19:43, 9 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Translated page[edit]

Aha, found it: need to add this to the article talk page {{translated page|it|Umberto Colombo|version=52254335}}. I guess the article talk page gets created when the article is created...? --Winterskunk (talk) 19:59, 9 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

To be added later, maybe...[edit]

Text of a memorial speech by Saloman Wald, former head of the Biotechnology Unit, Directorate for Science, Technology and Industry, OECDgiven 6.5.2007, with much info about Colombo's involvement with the Club of Rome & the OECD: http://www.clubofrome.at/news/sup2007/dl_may_col_wald.pdf --Winterskunk (talk) 20:03, 9 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merge this info with Umberto Colombo wikipage???[edit]

After I started working on this Umberto Colombo page, someone else created one for him:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umberto_Colombo_(scientist)

My intention is to merge the info on this page, where appropriate, into this approved Umberto Colombo page.

I'm just not sure when I will have the time... should I userfy instead, or what?

Thanks for any assistance provided! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.150.245.108 (talk) 05:08, 21 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
