Name and birth year

His name appears as both "de Palma" and "di Palma", but the latter spelling seems to be favoured. Not sure if there's a case for moving the article yet, though. He's also said to have been born in 1916 [1], which would make him 92 now. No reference to his death on Google. -- JackofOz (talk) 01:18, 25 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

On a second look, there are 109,000 ghits for "Piero di Palma", and 194,000 for "Piero de Palma". Not a huge gap. I can see nowhere online where anyone has raised the issue of exactly how his name is or ought to be spelt. It's like there are two large groups of followers who use different spellings and don't recognise the existence of the other group. Does anyone have information that will settle this? -- Jack of Oz [your turn] 11:14, 15 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
