Remove Michelangelo-specific information?[edit]

The article has a fair amount of information about the history Michelangelo Pietà in St. Peter's Basilica. It seems to me that this information should be put in the article about that specific sculpture (Pietà (Michelangelo)), instead of being here, in the article on the general art form.

Anyone mind if I remove it? I'll make sure all that information is in the artice on Michelangelo's piece. -- Narsil 23:49, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No, go ahead. Johnbod 00:22, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Done--thanks! The info was already covered in Pietà (Michelangelo), so I just cut it from here. -- Narsil 01:07, 7 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The lead still has a lot of Michelangelo-specific discussed crammed into the lead in an inappropriate way. There's lots of subjective, unencyclopedic, unsourced interpretation of the Michelangelo pieta in the lead.--76.93.42.50 (talk) 01:51, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Article of sorrows?[edit]

This seems like an article of sorrows itself. There is too little information and a lot of confusion. The tag for references is on the talk page... should it be on the main page? There are 6 lines on a 2 minute film of no special artistic value in the Extensions section, while the lead itself is about 15 lines. The Extensions section seems to be in total chaos and I would call it a rummage sale section. That section is mostly reference free. At the very least, the paintings and statues should be separated in the gallery, to start the chaos removal process. And I suggest trimming away the fluff in the extensions section since it has close to zero encyclopedic value. History2007 (talk) 04:53, 24 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Cleanup of low quality images !?[edit]

We have too many images in the article, many low quality. We could make some cleanup of this. --PetarM (talk) 08:41, 9 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

- Show mercy?[edit]

I just saw an iconic, Italian horror movie; Mario Bava's 'Black Sabbath' from 1963, where a woman gets down on her knees in front of a living dead woman who's about to kill her, shouting (with her hands together as in prayer) "Pietà! Pietà!", which was translated into "Show mercy! Show mercy!" in the subs.

Any comment?
