Italian War Crimes during Italian Fascist Occupation of Slovenia 1941-1943 and the change of British policy towards their persecution due to the possibility of Italian communists winning the 1946 general election
Foreign Office (i.e. British civil authority, but not the military) policy was indeed initially, as you say, in favor of 'hand-over' of the Italian war criminals, but the British and American military authorities in Italy were against it (p.520), but the Foreign Office changed its policy (ibid., p.523), too, when in 1946 the possibility was that Italian communists would win the Italian general election, which would open Italy to Soviet influence, so they decided to drop the case and let Italy do the job (ibid., p.526) resulting in the (highly indicative) fate of Graziani and Roatta (ibid., p.525). The British concern to secure the electoral victory of the Christian Democrats "prompted Britain to drop all of its war crimes claims against Italy" (ibid., p.527).

Melania Trump under new section "Other notable persons" ?
eg Melania Trump, born Melanija Knavs in Novo Mesto, current First Lady of the USA, married to 45th President Donald Trump.
Arguable whether her origin says much about Slovenia or is worth mentioning on Slovenia's wiki page. I think it is ... at least, it's the reason I was interested to look up this page. Presumably others will do the same. M@T arragano (talk) 00:51, 24 January 2017 (UTC)
- A separate section is not a good idea, IMO, as long as it mentions only her. If you find some other good section to mention here, go ahead. Culture section lists people but it's already excessively long and I have a long-term plan to heavily trim it at some point. --Tone 09:04, 24 January 2017 (UTC)
- If people are led to the Slovenia page by reading the article about Melania Trump, that's fine, but it doesn't mean they need to be led back from that page with a link. (There is also no "Notable persons" section at United States listing her husband.) Melania Trump is already included at List of Slovenes, which is probably the most appropriate place to include the information and link. Doremo (talk) 10:15, 24 January 2017 (UTC)
