Removed "The goose was never found, and the case went cold." from the "Other" section of the article. There was no alliteration to this in the source, and the way it was tacked on make it look like a snide remark/vandalism.MechanoidWarhead (talk) 06:31, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
Come on now, in England this is virtually all he's known for, thanks to it being replayed ad infinitum on blooper shows. It doesn't even get a passing mention in the trivia? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.56.35.62 (talk) 19:38, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
Add it in. It was hilarious! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.206.184.88 (talk) 19:14, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
This gave me a good laugh, but it seems to me like it doesn't belong in the background section. Like, I don't think that being hit in the face by a goose is an integral part of fabio's background. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.226.238.106 (talk) 15:34, 3 February 2020 (UTC)
What in goodness name is a "robust romance"? It's a strange phrase, and google is not helping... 66.159.194.90 05:37, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
His album was well received? Having listened to it, I can't imagine that being true. Needs a reference. And while I believe he thinks the CD is an embarassment, him saying it needs a reference as well. Nate 18:46, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Did he actually do the writing, or where that ghosted? Jake b 04:59, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
Can we please get a citation or reference on his modeling career; I can't imagine he worked for the Colt Studio group. Any one have more detail? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.119.123.54 (talk) 07:58, 15 October 2009 (UTC)
The trivia section says, "While riding the first ride of Apollo's Chariot at Busch Gardens Williamsburg, a stray goose flew into his face during the 210-foot drop." So will Busch Gardens really let a stray goose take its rides?? 140.147.160.78 11:58, 27 July 2007 (UTC)Stephen Kosciesza
From the article:
However, the cited source for this statement only mentions ONE bird. Is there reliable source somewhere about the first bird-in-the-face incident? (Assuming there was an earlier incident.) I mean, what are the odds of the same celebrity being struck in the face by a bird on the inaugural ride of a Busch Gardens attraction TWICE in three years? That seems so decidedly unusual that it's hard to believe the CNN article wouldn't have even mentioned it. Lurlock 03:51, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
I remember this. I lived near Busch Gardens at the time. This was a resident Canadian Goose that just randomly flew into him on the ride. I am not sure of a second incident. This was well documented in the Virginia Pilot and Daily Press, two Virginia news papers. 141.116.212.23 (talk) 19:30, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
According to an E! interview, Fabio did not sue Busch Gardens for the incident (he says this himself). See YouTube clip of the interview. Ojii-san (talk) 04:11, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
According to Fabio's own web site, he was born in 1961, not 1959. —Preceding unsigned comment added by His Manliness (talk • contribs) 22:42, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
Only a fan site, not his site. DrKilleMoff (talk) 20:40, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
Yepyep, he was in this. Saw it the other day, didn't know where to add it though, and I'm scared of making proper edits. -- Scar † Contributions † 15:59, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
The link about Fabio's colummn in EGM in the references does not link directly to any of these articles. It links to the EGM main page. Is that fine or should it be fixed?--Dukeruckley (talk) 22:59, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
I've repeatedly removed some silly reference that Lanzoni is the "mascot" for some non-notable gaming forum. Please don't re-insert unless there's some indication this has received press coverage or is somehow notable. Kelly hi! 17:22, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
This mascot for Final Story stuff still keeps getting added and constantly removed, too many times now, why don't we just let it stay and be done with it. -- OlEnglish (Talk) 23:11, 22 February 2009 (UTC)
This article is why people say that Wikipedia isn't a real encyclopedia. Under section Career subsection Spokesperson, it says, "We remember him fondly." What kind of garbage is that? It'll be the day when a sentence like that appears in a real encyclopedia... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.113.104.204 (talk) 22:53, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
Section Filmography mentions "Big Time Christmas Live" from 1992 and links to "Big Time Rush", which premiered in 2009. There must be an error, however I don't know if only the year is wrong or something else in 1992 was meant... Andreas Ley (talk) 00:58, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
Anyone able to dredge up a source on the photo of him "with his nephews"? I can't find any info re: his nephews anywhere, and the photo is posed like a picture with fans. Added a CN tag earlier. Piogre (talk) 01:08, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
Seeing no attempt to provide source, citing Biographies of Living Persons that "material about living persons (or, in some cases, recently deceased) that is unsourced or poorly sourced ... should be removed immediately", I've removed the unsourced "nephews" claim from the image caption, and propose that the image be replaced with a single-figure portrait Piogre (talk) 12:00, 29 March 2014 (UTC)

"Nationality: Italian" "Naturalized as a US Citizen"---Which is it?2601:806:4301:C100:D18D:C8:9DED:61F0 (talk) 04:38, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
The article does now give two dates. 1959 and 1961. Almost every reliable source I've been able to find however gives 1959 as his birth year. The source given for 1961 in the article is a book that's not even about Lanzoni himself but just a brief text among hundreds of other celebrities, Not very reliable imo. And then there is his "official website" that someone mentioned 10 years ago which gives his birth year as 1961. A closer look however gives the impression that's it's a fan site and not his site. Are there any other reliable source that gives 1961 as his birth year? DrKilleMoff (talk) 20:48, 20 January 2018 (UTC)
Should years active be his years of profesionnal activity? The guy was born in 1959 and years active as a model start in 1961?
Forgive me for complaining about a bad article instead of digging in and fixing it, but I am short on time right now and cannot bring this article into proper encyclopedia style tonight. I will add it to my list of articles that desperately need my attention. Until then, if you are a veteran editor who understands what I mean when I say "encyclopedia style," then I encourage you to please start the work on this article. It reads now like it is a combination press release/biography/fan magazine piece and it is awful. Start with removing the quotations. Encyclopedia style rarely includes quotations. If the information in the quotations is absolutely necessary, paraphrase it, but I doubt any of the quotations are required. I give my word that I will jump in and make this my first Wikipedia priority when I can climb out from under some other volunteer journalism work to which I am committed at this time. All the best to all of you. MarydaleEd (talk) 02:09, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
