Yet another italian! :)

One thing I saw when typing on the keyboard with an Italian dictionary
is that it does not recognise loanwords from English (and at the current
days we use them a lot in our everyday Italian).

(random) e.g. "Mi è arrivato dello SPAM in posta" -> "Mi è arrivato
dello SPAMPANAVA in posta"

I think that any old novel couldn't help with this.

Could some resource from Wikipedia be integrated with any of the novels above?
As far as I can see, Wikipedia/Wikizionario/* content is CC BY-SA licensed.

As alternative, I found a dictionary from the Boot2Gecko project, which seems 
to be complete enough (and includes English loanwords).

A good thing is that dirty words are already marked, so they can be easily 
filtered out.
