Talk:Marcus Martianus Gangalius (Nova Roma)

Duplicate entry

This civis has two pages. The other one's Marcus Martianius Gangalius (Nova Roma). Which is the correct spelling of his nomen: Martianus or Martianius? -- Marius Peregrinus 20:28, 3 September 2007 (CEST)

The correct spelling of his nomen is: Martianius. --Lupus 13:36, 3 September 2007 (HST)

So what do we do with this Martianus page...? -- Marius Peregrinus 06:46, 6 September 2007 (CEST)

I don't know if there's a set way to "delete" an unwanted page. I was going to ask Agricola, since he's been doing this for a while. It may be a bit anal, but I was hoping to work on each of the things that will need to be corrected one-by-one. That way I wouldn't lose track of what was being done, and it should also ensure corrections were made correctly. I just finished putting back the Gens Martiania page -- I usually get to it my clicking on Martiania on my civis page. Would you mind looking at it to see if I messed anything up? I tried to put in the stylistic editorials that Cordus had made to the previous page, fixing italics and capitalization. Change of question: In your and other's signatures, it shows "(CEST)". Is this a special way to sign your comment, or is it your time zone? I was thinking it was a time zone, which is why I was putting "(HST) -- Hawaii Standard Time". -- Lupus 21:20, 5 September 2007 (HST)

Yep, I can delete pages. Let me know when all is done and whatever is left over I will take care of for you. Agricola 01:47, 7 September 2007 (CEST)

Good to know you can delete pages. I will let you know when I think I'm done with all the needed editing. -- Lupus 07:57, 7 September 2007 (CEST)

Double entry on page

On this page, "http://www.novaroma.org/nr/Gens_Martiania_(Nova_Roma)", in the section, "Articles in category "Gens Martiania (Nova Roma)" ", I would like to delete the first entry, the one with the gens spelling of Martianus. If I delete that line, will it mess anything else up?

If it is okay to delete the line, then I guess the next step would be to also delete the page that it links to - that would be the page for Marcus Martianus Gangalius (Nova Roma), correct? -- Lupus 08:06 7 September 2007 (CEST)

Time zone

CEST = Central European Standard Time. (In the summer, for those countries that observe it, it'll be CEDT [Daylight Time].) Why that particular zone...? It's Rome time. Everything on the Wiki site is set to Rome time unless you tell it otherwise in your User Preferences. -- Marius Peregrinus 04:50, 7 September 2007 (CEST)

That's right; I forgot about everything being set to Rome time. -- Lupus 07:57, 7 September 2007 (CEST)

Are you signing your edits by hand...? Usually we just do two dashes [--] followed by four tildes [~~~~]. This automatically makes our signatures, links them to our User pages (the personal ones), and puts a time-and-date stamp (Rome time) on the edit. (Talk pages only; articles themselves don't get signed.) -- Marius Peregrinus 09:35, 7 September 2007 (CEST)
