Also, the title is not the sort of thing that links well. I mean that to link easily to this page everyone would have to know that this story is called "II. Of Horatius". Not very memorable. We should leave the numbers behind for certain. Compare [[Rape of Lucretia]] to see a treatment of a similar story. Note especially that an ancient source (Livy) is cited. Along those lines this might be titled "[[Horatius at the bridge]]". [[User:M. Lucretius Agricola|Agricola]] 16:44, 2 September 2007 (CEST)

Found it: [[Stories from Roman History]].  [[I. Of Romulus and Remus]] is taken from there too, with several other installments projected.  The '''Stories''' page gives some publication info for the book.  Still...large chunks of copyrighted material make my cold wet nose tingle. -- Wolf, aka [[User:Aldus Marius Peregrinus|Marius Peregrinus]] 04:54, 8 September 2007 (CEST)

:Yes, I asked the poster to halt. The [[core narrative]] page was offered in compensation. I'm waiting on some communications before I deal with the "Stories" pages and I hope to recruit a team to work on the "narratives". I expect to wait a couple of weeks because of holiday travel.

What is the source for this? I am worried about copyvio.
