Expansion of Main Sights

In my opinion the Main Sights section is quite incomplete, it basically focuses on the most central neighborhoods of the city. I mean, historical districts such as Aurora, Barriera di Milano, San Donato, San Paolo, Vanchiglia - just to mention some districts close to downtown - are totally neglected, like they've got a minor part in the past and in the present of Turin. Plus the city is going through an important urban renewal in recent years, a renewal that involves several districts from north to south (along the so-called Spina area) and that is changing the look of whole neighborhoods. The whole thing is still "work in progress" for years to come but some neighborhoods have already changed their look by now: for example, big areas in North San Donato, South Borgata Vittoria and South-East Madonna di Campagna districts have turned from industrial neighborhoods to modern residential neighboorhoods, with green parks, shopping services, new streets and so on. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.40.33.118 (talk) 02:51, 22 June 2013 (UTC)

Legends

Any legends connected to Turin? I have heard of something called the Gates of Hell. See http://stage.gns.gannettonline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20060211/OLYMPICS/602110301/1024 for info.

There are thousands of legends about Turin. The city is said to be part of both the white and the black macic triangles (white: Turin-Lion-Prague; black: Turin-London-San Francisco). Precisely the core of the White Turin is Vittorio Square and the one of the Black Turin is Statuto Square. I found an English website in which you'll find something about Turin misteries:[1]. If you know Italian, I advise you two books:
- "Curiosità e Misteri di Torino" (=Turin curiosities and misteries), by Renzo Rossotti, publisher: "Newton Compton Editori";
- "Giuda Insolita ai Misteri, ai Segreti, alle Leggende e alle Curiosità di Torino" (=Insolit guide to Turin misteries, secrets, legends and curiosities), by Renzo Rossotti, publisher: "Newton & Compton Editori".
They are really interesting: if you can, read them!!! --Stefano 22:49, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

See this interview with Dr Leo Ruickbie on Turin and the Gates of Hell - it's free to access and in English, and gives a good insight into the whole thing. What about putting up a legends section on the main page? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.204.62.30 (talk) 13:37, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

Nazi

Turin also the city that opposed against Nazi occupation. In March 1944 there were in Turin massive strikes against fascism and nazism. In April 1945 Turin was among the Northern Italian cities in which the Italian Resistance started the actual liberation from Nazi-Fascist troops. Thanks to thousands of partisan troopers, the city actually liberated itself in April 23, 1945, days before the Allies reached the town.

Requested move

Turin → Torino – Torino is the name preferred by many Italians and, due to the 2006 Winter Olympics, many English-speakers. The 2006 Winter Olympics have popularized the name "Torino" over the name "Turin" as the city was almost never referred to by the latter during the Games.

The 2006 Winter Olympics have popularized the name Torino over the name Turin. This claim is false. Today's Google News search returns 73,300 hits for Turin and only 15,100 for Torino, the latter figure including those simply quoting the title Torino 2006 but using Turin in all other respects. Moreover, the English-speaking world is not just the US, so the impression of a single American is by no means reliable. But the US is divided on usage as well. SI, for example, uses Turin as well. --89.52.34.245 13:00, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

  • Strongly support. The former Turin was instrumental in uniting Italy from a collection of city-states. In this united Italy, Torino is the name of this city. Italian is the predominant language of not only Italy, but also Torino. And the "Shroud of Turin" argument is false, just as we can continue to enjoy "Peking duck" and see it called such even on menus in Beijing. A google search of Italian language pages finds 10.1 million hits on Torino versus 820K hits for Turin, and searching for Turin WITHOUT Torino finds a paltry 397,000. Continuing to call Torino "Turin" is akin to continuing to refer to the Southern US as "The Confederacy." Docpurpleman 17:21, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
Substantive reply below.Robert A.West (Talk) 19:01, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
If you think that using Turin nowadays is the same as using "The Confederacy", then what is using Germany instead of Deutschland akin to? Germany derives from the name of the Roman (!) province (Germania). The German version of that (Germanien) is only used to refer to antiquity and is not even etymologically related to Deutschland. So here a name of more than 2000 years of age has been preserved. The fascists' attempt to eradicate Piedmontese is not even a hundred years old (and didn't fully succeed, so while it's not standard Italian, Turin is definitely an endonym). What I'm trying to say is that following your rule Germany is a much more prominent case than Turin. And I doubt you say Deutschland when talking English. But it's usage what counts anyway. And usage is for Germany and still quite clearly for Turin. --89.52.108.189 21:26, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
It is not simply usage that counts; people consult an encyclopedia to get BETTER information than they already possess. And decisions of this type do not uniformly fall on the side of usage in Wikipedia, thank goodness: Consider that Aluminum is redirected to Aluminium, although Aluminum is the more popular spelling by 3 to 1. The "Aluminum" spelling, was the result of a typographical error in establishing what should have been the Aluminium company of America (Alcoa)

69.162.47.55 05:55, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Bad example, since both words are English. The article could equally well be called "Aluminum", but a non-American started it, so it stays as is. Robert A.West (Talk) 07:17, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

You sadly misunderstand the purpose and operation of Wikipedia if you think that first-come-first-served, or popular misusage should guide content. 69.162.47.55 05:19, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

My point was that Torino has not been used in English for more than a few weeks, by the majority of people. Also, I don't think we should decide the results of a major HR campaign a week after it ends. If the majority of English speakers are still referring to the historical city of Torino (rather than the games) in a year, then a name change might be in order. I probably shouldn't start this part of the discussion, but it could be argued that the Torino games were publicised as the Torino games in order to distance them from the historical city of Turin, in which case it would be even more of a bad idea to change the name of this article. Makemi 16:51, 2 March 2006 (UTC)
  • Strongly oppose. On Google News the query turin -torino italy gives 66,900 results, and the query italy torino -turin gives 6,420 results, more than 10x difference for Turin. --Sharcho 03:21, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

What distinction is there between this and a proposal to move Rome or Florence? Septentrionalis 04:40, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

I note also the (entirely proper) existence of it:Londra, it:Inghilterra, and it:Stati Uniti d'America. The same principle applies both ways. Septentrionalis 05:36, 27 February 2006 (UTC)
So also, de:Turin, de:Amerika, de:Vereinigten Staaten, usw. This follows the corresponding principles for the German Wikipedia, as is perfectly proper. Those are the titles I would look under were I looking for the German article, and the ones I would naturally use for a link.
Italian usage is, accordingly, irrelevant: this is the english-language Wikipedia. Docpurpleman's "Confederacy" analogy is ill-conceived: "Turin" and "Torino" are the same name and refer to the same place in a way that "Confederacy" and "Southern US" do not and never did. Consider "Londra", "Londonium" and "London". The first is Italian, the second Latin and the last English, and those should be the relevant titles in the respective Wikipedias. The "Beijing" analogy is also false: there was as concerted and successful effort in official circles to reform transliteration of Chinese proper names -- still it took years to accomplish this. If and when "Torino" becomes the commonly-used name in English over a much longer period than an olympic season, then changing the name would be appropriate. In this matter Wikipedia should be descriptive, not prescriptive, and we should avoid affectation whenever possible. Robert A.West (Talk) 19:07, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

If you took the time to actually read the response, you would have noticed that the argument was actually pointing out that Peking can change to Beijing by request of the Chinese government without affecting the spelling of Peking Duck. 69.162.47.55 05:14, 2 March 2006 (UTC) Dicussion prior to the official move request follows:

Torino v Turin

This city has always been called Turin, but all of a sudden, now that the Olympics have been awarded to the city, even the US broadcast networks have started calling it Torino.

Comment : It has certainly NOT always been called Turin; it has also been called Taurinorum, Taurinum, and Torino.

69.162.47.55 05:55, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Comment : The BBC continued to refer to the city as Turin.

The official logo for those winter games uses "Torino 2006", but the IOC still refers to it as Turin. Turin is the original name of the city, you could almost say the media is doing the same work that the fascists started in trying to eradicate Piedmontese. Some english-speaking media is even apologetic about the use of the word Turin.

It's also worth noting that the name of the city in its local language (Piedmontese) is actually "Turin"; that's not some sort of invented English name. Torino is the Italian name for it -- especially with southern Italians.

Comment : Piedmontese is ONE of the local languages, the majority speak Italian.

69.162.47.55 05:55, 1 March 2006 (UTC) NBC admitted that they chose to use "Torino" because it was sexier and more marketable.

Turin is not even an anglicized version, Turin IS the name of the city before the fascists outlawed Piedmontese.

Comment : Actually the word Torino was used well before the fascists; the effort to standardize Italian based on the Florentine dialect began with the Italian unification in the 1860's.

69.162.47.55 05:55, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Of course. But originally only Turin was an endonym. Today they both are. --128.176.21.253 11:13, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

From "Turin" to "Torino"

From "Turin" to "Torino": Olympics Put New Name on the Map James Owen for National Geographic News February 6, 2006

Interesting article, although they fail to distinguish the phenomenon of an actual name change for whatever reasons, a basic but important difference. The article also fails to mention that while the IOC wants Torino to be used when referring to the Games, it is still supposed to be Turin when referring to the host city. Torino sounds better. Turin is ugly and outdated.

In any case, Turin is certainly more accurate - the residents call it Turin. That's what really matters when looking for the actual name of a place.

Is Turin more accurate? My understanding is that the residents (at least the current ones) universally refer to their town as 'Torino'. Albanaco 02:01, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
Of course we call it "Torino". Nowadays the Piedmontese is spoken by a minority of the residents. Andrea.gf 13:38, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
The Piedmontese name is a bit of a red herring. This is the English wikipedia, the article is about the city with its given English name, just as Florence is not Firenze in the English WP. The marketing bonzos of the games decided to use the Italian name. That's their choice, but it's nothing official. What has the IOC's marketing got to do with our encyclopedia?

Education


Turin hosts all universities, but the most famous and the one in which there's the highest teaching level is the 'Politecnico', the engineering faculty. Stefano.

Stefano is right. Only the fashion university is partly detached to milan. Secondary school in turin are made of a large number of scientifical licee and professional schools. The rest is divided between technical school and classical licee. Addictedtobass 09:27, 27 September 2007 (UTC)Addictedtobass

Google

If it interests you, under the specification for only English language results, "Turin" gets 60,700,000, while Torino gets 105,000,000 under the same specification. --Revolución hablar ver 22:26, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

For the same searches I get 30,400,000 and 66,600,000 hits, respectively. Strange difference. However, I think that Google News search is a more reliable source for people's actual usage as news coverage has far more impact than webpages in general (and there the outcome is the opposite). And again, included in the Torino hits are all sites which just mention Torino once but use Turin throughout and those pages which Google thinks are in English but are in Italian (quite a number of them). --128.176.76.166 09:15, 28 February 2006 (UTC)

However, I think it should stay Turin until if the name Torino permanently supercedes that of Turin. --Revolución hablar ver 22:28, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

Fiat

In the opening paragraph, it states: Turin is also well-known as the home of the shroud of Turin and host of the 2006 Winter Olympics.

Surely Torino is just as well known for being the home of Fiat. Although this is mentioned further, does it deserve a place in the opening paragraph. Another piece of information is that it is the home of Juventus. This deserves a mention in the first paragraph as it is a widely-known football club and one of the most succesful and famous in the World.--iceman 15:25, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

The piedmontese spelling is not "Türín" but, quite simply, "Turin".

Torino

The English version of the Torino Olympics website, again - the English version, refers to the city correctly as Torino, http://www.torino2006.org/ENG/OlympicGames/home/index.html. Just because some media outlets called it Turin, it shouldn't be renamedin their favor. For those who won't give up the incorrect name, google both turin and Torino, you'll find 18 thousand results for turin and 57 thousand for Torino. 64.86.28.37 22:16, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

Gosh, what media outlet are you talking about? Turin has been called this way in English for centuries. There's no such thing as a correct way to spell the city name and an incorrect one. --Fertuno 23:44, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
Turin was never known in English by the name Torino until the Olympics. There is a laong debate about this issue above. nadav 06:44, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

— The "English version of the Torino Olympics website" seems to have disappeared, an epheermal site for an ephemenal event. There was a big public relations push during the Winter Olympics to rebrand the city "Torino" internationally, but I don't see why PR people should be allowed to decide English usage.Campolongo (talk) 10:54, 16 May 2008 (UTC)Campolongo

This is ridiculous. Turin is the English name of the city in question, full stop, in the same way that Milan, Venice, Florence, Rome, and Naples are the English names of the cities which Italians call Milano, Venezia, Firenze, Roma, and Napoli, and as Piedmont and Tuscany and Sicily are the English names of Piemonte and Toscana and Sicilia, and as Italy is the English name of the country whose Italian name is Italia. Shall we rename the article about Germany "Deutchland"? Is the article about China going to be called "Zhong Guo"? Give it up already. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.6.210.253 (talk) 19:09, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

What's more, it is not even just the English name, it is also the Piedmontese language name, which is the indigenous language of the city anyway. RGloucester 📬 16:26, 7 August 2013 (UTC)

The website http://www.torino2006.org/ENG/OlympicGames/home/index.html is dead, so it can hardly be cited as evidence of anything. It proved short-lived, like the whole "Torino" thing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Campolongo (talkcontribs) 13:30, 22 July 2016 (UTC)

Non-English-speaking Wikipedia users, please stop trying to tell us native English-speakers how to use our own language. The English name of the city is still, at least for the time being, Turin. Whatever the IOC may in its ignorance have chosen to call the place in 2006, Turin is not 'incorrect', let alone a media hype. If anything's a media hype, it would be the use of 'Torino' (or 'Milano' or 'Genova' or 'Venezia' or 'Firenze') in English. I'm a professional translator, and if I were to use 'Torino' rather than 'Turin' in an English translation I'd quite rightly be accused of incompetence.212.30.86.78 (talk) 17:23, 18 September 2016 (UTC)

Primo Levi

Classic wikipedia bias. Note that the Italian wp article barely has a mention of this author, yet here he's centrepieced with a photo and whatnot.

Well, he IS a noted author (I've heard and even read some of his work, and I've never even been to New York), and he's from Turin. He's hardly "centrepieced" since he's mentioned merely in a list of similar people and happens to have a picture in this article-- not even a whole paragraph of content. I'm not sure what his mention is meant to promote, especially since the main themes of his works are not mentioned with him. Wabbott9 (talk) 03:23, 12 March 2011 (UTC)

British vs. American spelling of "center/centre"

User:Stephen G. Brown and 1-3 IP users appear to be violating WP:3RR over how to spell "center/centre".

(Or, if it does not matter in this article, just leave it alone?) Wabbott9 (talk) 05:25, 11 March 2011 (UTC)

It makes no difference to me, either, but I usually revert attempts to change spellings to a different standard (National varieties of English). It isn’t just 1-3 IPs, but over ten that I recall making these changes recently, each edit usually being the only one by that IP.

Questions and comments

I have made my own contribution to the article and now I list a few things that need some work.

1. "Nowadays it houses the National Museum of Cinema, and it is believed to be the tallest museum in the world (167 metres or 548 feet)."

I don't know how seriously to take this claim since it says "believed". I don't think believing is sufficient. We need a source for the claim.

2. "The Basilica of Superga, with a dome 244 feet high, a work of Juvarra, built by Amedeo II ex voto for the deliverance of Turin (1706), served since 1772 as a royal mausoleum."

This sentence needs to be reworked. I can't quite understand how to fix it.

3. "That is why working in a city of artists of great repute, especially architects and planners like Carlo di Castellamonte and his son Amedeo, which include the route of a Roman castrum the new capital and build beautiful buildings, Guarino Guarini and, in the eighteenth century, Filippo Juvarra and Vittorio Alfieri."

This sentence needs to be completely rewritten. It's truly horrible.

4. "Between the 1960s and the 1970s, the international centre of Turin (Arte Povera), the presence in the city of artists like Alighiero Boetti, Mario Merz, Giuseppe Penone, Piero Gilardi and Michelangelo Pistoletto."

This is another ugly sentence that needs revision.

5. "In those years there was a strong artistic influence of the famous designer, Armando Testa, the founder of advertising agency."

This sounds weird. Has Testa really invented advertising agencies?

6. "Baricco was also among the founders of the School Holden, dedicated to teaching the techniques of writing."

This sentence is ambiguous. What kind of writing tecniques are we talking about?

7. "Juventus has the larger fan base, especially in southern Italy, while Torino enjoys a more localised support."

What's the source for this claim?

8. "cultural proximity to France" is almost certainly inaccurate and avoidable. I would eliminate it.

9. "Another established university in the city is the Polytechnic University of Turin, that ranks among Top 50 universities in the world and #1 in Italy ("Academic Ranking of World Universities" published by Institute of Higher Education of Shanghai Jiao Tong University, in engineering, technology and computer science fields)."

Should the above say "#1 in Italy for engineering, technology and computer science fields ("Academic Ranking of World Universities" published by Institute of Higher Education of Shanghai Jiao Tong University)"?

10. "The city has an international airport known as Caselle International Airport Sandro Pertini (TRN), located in Caselle Torinese, about 13 kilometres from the centre of Turin"

The article on Caselle Torinese talks about 14km rather than 13km.

ICE77 (talk) 01:19, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

Not "the Capital of the Alps"

The last sentence of the introduction states that Turin 'is often reffered to as "the Capital of the Alps"'. Im am no expert on Turin, but there is no reference to this claim. I know this term only in reference to Innsbruck (Austria) and Grenoble (France); so does Google. From what I understand, neither the English, nor the Piedmontese, nor the German article on Turin mention a term like "te Capital of the Alps". Should be removed?

Image

This article lacks a lead image of Turin. It could be a notable Turinese landmark or a collage of city landmarks. I think this page shouldn't go without a lead image. We need something to represent this city. (N0n3up (talk) 00:27, 16 November 2016 (UTC))

I agreed with this, and I think the current photo was a wise choice. It captures the city skyline, with the Mole clearly visible, and demonstrates its connection to the Alps as well. Trappy (talk) 10:30, 18 November 2017 (UTC)

Cit Turin image

The image featured under Cit Turin, is outdated. The Grattacielo Intesa Sanpaolo has been completed since 2014, yet the image shows it under construction. Can we put an updated image with the finished tower? Trappy (talk) 11:11, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
