Hello, Edgar Aetheling 25. Thank you for your work on Gaius Mamilius Turrinus. Moriwen, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

I've been loving all your biographies of ancient Romans but this one feels a little hard to justify notability imo. Do we know anything about this particular consul besides his name?

— Moriwen (talk) 17:09, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

{{Re|Moriwen}}. Thank you for the kind words, I appreciate it. Mamilius Turrinus does not have much notability I will admit, however, he has articles in Latin, Italian, Etc. Thus I believe the article should stay. Of course, it is at your discretion. Edgar Aetheling 25 (talk) 18:34, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

Hello, Edgar Aetheling 25. Thank you for your work on Quintus Petillius Spurinus and Quintus Caedicius Noctua. Ingratis, while examining these pages as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

Thank you for these short articles, which I have accepted. However, you have by now contributed many such articles and seen the same corrections repeatedly, so I hope you won't mind if I comment that you should by now be remembering not only to add the references properly formatted but also to add accurate categories and sort the articles correctly, that is, by nomen, not praenomen. Please do take this on board: it should not be difficult to build these things into your article construction process and otherwise you'll keep getting similar comments from other editors. On the positive side, I don't agree with the above comment about notability: I don't think there can be any doubt about the notability of consuls by virtue of being consuls.

Hello, Edgar Aetheling 25. Thank you for your work on Gnaeus Cornelius Dolabella (consul 159 BC) and Gaius Fannius Strabo. Ingratis, while examining these pages as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

Articles accepted - there's no reason however why you cannot also address the issues of ref formatting / sorting etc, as has been pointed out several times, when creating these stubs!

Referencing

Hello Edgar Aetheling 25. Thank you for the Roman biographies, but you've been asked several times to use proper referencing, and haven't replied yet. Your habit of stuffing all the references down in the reference section is creating unnecessary cleanup work for your fellow editors. Please read Help:Referencing for beginners, which explains how to correctly add references to an article. Thank you. Wikishovel (talk) 08:15, 5 April 2024 (UTC)

Please do address this, before it becomes an "issue"! Also, if you look back at the changes made to your articles you'll see other regular repairs which while not as important as the references you could still usefully pre-empt as you create. Ingratis (talk) 10:03, 5 April 2024 (UTC)p

{{Re|Ingratis}} I will learn referencing before I work on any more articles. Edgar Aetheling 25 (talk) 19:45, 5 April 2024 (UTC)

Lucius Cornelius Lentulus Lupus

Hi Edgar. Thanks for your message. References - you are almost there. What you're doing wrong is adding the tags into the text without including the references themselves, which you're grouping at the end under the References subheading. So for example, the first one is this: ...heir to the [[Seleucid Empire]] from exile.<ref name=":0" />, which refers to the source you've defined at the end: <ref name=":0">Polybius, History, XXXI, 23</ref> This is the wrong way round. What needs to happen is that the reference is spelt out in the text the first time it occurs, thus: ...heir to the [[Seleucid Empire]] from exile.<ref name=":0">Polybius, History, XXXI, 23</ref>. The abbreviated tag<ref name=":0" /> is used thereafter if the same reference is used again in the article. Otherwise the reference will be picked up automatically at {{reflist}}. (By the way, please ignore the <nowiki> tags here - all they do is show the wiki markup text instead of implementing it). I've changed reference 1 only - take a look and tell me if it makes sense now. (this has caused the error messages in red for the other refs to appear - ignore that for now).Ingratis (talk) 18:22, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

I think I sorted out the references? Thanks Edgar Aetheling 25 (talk) 19:51, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

Yes! well done. The only other thing was to mop up the surplus refs and reflist tag at the end, which I've done. I'm delighted to see you've dealt with the sorting as well. There is another thing, however, which is that this article duplicates the existing Lucius Cornelius Lentulus Lupus (consul 156 BC). Ingratis (talk) 20:07, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

Should I do something about the duplicate article? Edgar Aetheling 25 (talk) 20:42, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

Irritating though it is, you should merge yours into it by adding to it those pieces of information in your article that are not already in it, with the references, and then blank and redirect yours to it - see WP:REDIRECT for how to do that. Ingratis (talk) 22:42, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

I have sent you a note about pages you started

Hello, Edgar Aetheling 25. Thank you for your work on Quintus Opimius (consul). Ingratis, while examining these pages as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

Thank you for this article. You are almost there with the refs. The only thing wrong was that after ref :0, which was fine, you didn't close the opening ref tags so they didn't display properly at {{reflist}}. If you take a look at the history you'll see what the fix was.

References

Hey there! One more quick technical note on the references (sorry, I know you've heard no end of this): you don't need to re-list them individually in the references section! The {{reflist}} will do that automatically for you. So, instead of

== References ==

<ref name=":0" /><ref name=":2" /><ref name=":1" />{{Reflist}}

you can just put

== References ==

{{Reflist}}

Take a look at Quintus Calpurnius Piso to see what I mean. Hope this helps!— Moriwen (talk) 15:53, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

Ok, Thank you. I will do that!Edgar Aetheling 25 (talk) 17:10, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

You are still adding references in your usual way, creating extra work for your fellow editors. Please stop. Wikishovel (talk) 06:22, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Vipsanii and Vipstani

These are two different gentes, please don't change links to Vipstana gens to Vipsania gens like you did on Claudia Marcella Minor. ★Trekker (talk) 23:51, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Translations?

Hi Edgar. I need to ask whether you are translating your articles from other wikipedias, and if so, which? Ingratis (talk) 10:25, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

Sometimes, yes, I translate articles often from Latin Wikipedia or others if the Latin Wikipedia doesn't have it.Edgar Aetheling 25 (talk) 14:12, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
