[edit] Sonny and Vito

I hid this sentence:

Vito always blamed himself for this, as the boy saw his father murder a rival at the age of 11.

[edit] Date of Death

I read on the Wikipedia article for the Shot Heard 'Round the World that Sonny was listening to the broadcast of this baseball game just before he was gunned down. If so, wouldn't his date of death be October 3, 1951 (the date this very famous home run was hit) instead of the 1946 date that is given in this article? Gujuguy 23:51, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

It is very clear that Sonny was killed before 1950, the year mentioned in Godfather II for the murders of the various heads of the other families.Jrm2007 10:53, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Is this true???

He cheated on his wife because his penis was too big? I really don't buy that, I think this is complete nonsense, unless anyone can prove otherwise I'm removing this. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 202.138.62.221 (talk) 19:21, 10 January 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Date of Birth

The correct date of birth (according to the novel) is probably 1910. This can be safely assumed because Tom Hagen and Sonny are the same age (maybe give or take a year) and in the beginning of the novel, it is stated that Tom is 35 years old in 1945 meaning he was born in 1910.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Santino corleone 2.jpg

Image:Santino corleone 2.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
