[edit] Naming
Shouldn't this be at Genovese family, per naming conventions? There's a page there with history (but never any significant content), so we'd need a sysop/admin to delete it first. But I won't apply for it to be moved this second because a) I don't know where to ask, and b) I want to give anyone a chance to justify it's current location. - IMSoP 20:04, 20 May 2005 (UTC)
- I believe this should actually be at Genovese crime family as per the other crime family articles. A discussion for it can be found here. [1] 152.163.100.66 05:04, 22 May 2005 (UTC)
Can somebody clarify if caporegime=Underboss? If so, correct it on Costello's page & elsewhere if needed. And check the plural is caporegimi & N caporegimes?
And, y'know, I just don't get why Mob murders are being dignified as "assassinations". They're just murders, killings, hits... Trekphiler 07:17, 27 December 2005 (UTC)
Caporegime means captain or lieutenant, not underboss.
[edit] Premature end
This article needs sorting out as it seems to end abruptly with the departure of Frank Costello, and have barely anything at all on the family during the 1960s, 1970s or 1980s. If someone doesn't get there first I'll endeavour to sort it out when I get a chance. C i d 13:04, 30 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Caporegime
Plural for "caporegime" is again "caporegime", but you can use also "capiregime". In italian is exactly the same, because, as a "one word" caporegime is identic in the plural, but as the contraction of "capo" and "regime" (capo of regime) the plural will be for the word "capo" becoming "capi", so "capiregime". We use both.
The "Bosses" list of the Genovese crime family is missing.
[edit] Genovese`s death
Genovese`s death is wrong in this article.. He was put in prison in 1959 and died in 1969(not 59)
It needs to be changes under: Drugs and the Genovese family and under: Bosses of the Genovese crime family Genoveses power ended in 1969, Tommy Eboli was given the family power before Genovese died, but I dont know if it was as early as 1959. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 212.4.33.137 (talk • contribs). on 15th Aug 2006
- Corrected. The page history shows that 212.4.33.137 was the one who changed it to 1959 on 15th Aug 2006. Clappingsimon talk 21:27, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
