Battle of Rignano edit

"October 30 – Battle of Rignano: Sergius VII, duke (magister militum) of Naples, is defeated by the Sicilian forces under King Roger II of Sicily. Sergius is killed and Roger establishes direct control over Naples – nominating his 17-year-old son Alfonso of Capua as the new duke." While our article Battle of Rignano acknowledges that Sergius died on the field, it says that the battle was lost by Roger II. So which one is true? Proofreader (talk) 07:39, 23 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
