Well, I felt it was a subset of Suicides/murders of Roman emperors, as the 2 often coincided. But true, not always. Neddyseagoon 18:30, 11 March 2006 (UTC)neddyseagoon
Sorry for being wrong about the "two women" - should have read the lot.
However, leaving a note here because I get a "connection refused" for the Penelope server (LacusCurtius website). Any idea if something is going on/wrong? --Francis Schonken 11:04, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
5This is all that I have deemed worthy of being related concerning the thirty pretenders, all of whom I have gathered into one book, lest the telling of each single detail about each one singly might bring about an aversion that is undeserved and not to be borne by my readers. 6Now I will return to the Emperor Claudius. Concerning him I think I should publish a special book, short though it be, for his manner of life deserves it, and I must say something, besides, about that peerless man, his brother,116 in order that at least a few facts may be told of so righteous and noble a family.
7It was with deliberate purpose that I included the women, namely that I might make a mock of Gallienus, a greater monster than whom the Roman state has never endured; now I will add two pretenders besides, supernumeraries, so to speak, for they lived each at a different period, since one was of the time of Maximinus, the other of the time of Claudius, my purpose being to include in this book the lives of thirty pretenders. 8I ask you, accordingly, you who have received this book now completed, to look on my plan with favour and to consent to add to your volume these two, whom I had purposed to include after Claudius and Aurelian among those who lived between Tacitus and Diocletian, just as I included the elder Valens117 in this present book. 9This error on my part, however, your accurate learning, mindful of history, prevented. 10And so I am grateful that the kindliness of your wisdom has filled out my title. Now no one in the Temple of Peace118 will say that among the pretenders I included women, female pretenders, forsooth, or, rather, pretendresses — for this they are wont to bandy about concerning me with merriment and jests. 11They have now the number complete, gathered into my writings from the secret stores of history. For 12I will add to my work Titus and Censorinus, the former of whom, as I have said, lived under Maximinus and the latter under Claudius, but both were slain by the very soldiers who clothed them with the purple.
Thanks for putting this on the web. I'm using it at Talk:Perpetual peace to answer a monomaniac who is choosing to dfeny that conquerors have promise peace through conquest; for more of his vision of history, see Never at War. Septentrionalis 16:13, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

Hi! How are you? Ho appena completato l'articolo su San Gregorio Magno, la chiesa sul Celio. ti va di dare un'occhiata per corregere eventuali errori? Sempre su Roma, ho scritto l'articolo per Agostino Chigi, relativo a Villa Farnesina... Ciao! Attilios
If you've time, give glance to the new Terracina article. The older one was truly stupid, as many new monuments were discovered after the This article incorporates text from a publication now in the public domain: Chisholm, Hugh, ed. (1911). Encyclopædia Britannica (11th ed.). Cambridge University Press. ((cite encyclopedia))
: Missing or empty |title=
(help) editions. I'm growing increasingly dubious the presence of such 1911 articles in WP, as they : 1) are written in very POV-ish English; 2) sono pieni di errori, sia tipografici sia di interpretazione. Grazie per la revisione di San Gregorio al Celio. Ciaoooo! Attilios, today.
Hey! Today I had time and worked much. Improved Fondi and wrote from scratch Siege of Gaeta. As usual, I leave them to your pity to correct a bit my English. Ciaoooo!! Attilios.
Hello - This account was created a few minutes ago. Is it related to yours? --HappyCamper 00:09, 27 March 2006 (UTC)
Hi there. I have recently discovered your website that has Bevan's work "The House of Ptolemy" online. I have started reading it and have found it absolutely fascinating. Thanks for providing this incredible online resource (and all the other online texts). I have been considering using this resource to improve some of the Wikipedia articles on the Ptolemaic dynasty, but wanted to check how reliable a resource it is nearly 80 years later. ie. How much of what Bevan writes has been overtaken by later historical research, and how much is still valid?
This interest started when I expanded the Ptolemy (disambiguation) page. I have tried not to get confused by all the Ptolemies, but would appreciate any feedback on whether I have missed any Ptolemies, or misrepresented them. Thanks for any advice you can offer. Carcharoth 00:15, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
Hi Bill. Many thanks for the pointer to Bennett's Ptolemy page and the advice to ask him about things. I do have a more general question that I wondered if I could ask you. I am currently trying to find sources that give the etymology of the Greek Ptolemaios, and, more ambitiously, trying to track the variation and evolution of the name over the next 2000 years! For what I have compiled so far, see the relevant section in Ptolemy (disambiguation) or Ptolemy (name) - one will move to the other when I find the time to make sure I am carrying out the move correctly. Would you have any advice on the best way to tackle this etymology research? So far I have the Oxford Classical Dictionary and the rather large Paully-Wissowa encyclopedia series to find. Carcharoth 00:50, 2 April 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your appreciation, Bill, I'm glad that you at least tried defending the facts and didn't simply assume that the troll was a vandal looking for trouble. Cheers. – CrazyInSane 14:58, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
Added some material to Todi, after I visited that extrardinarily beautiful city last Sunday. I like it. It resembles something ready for a featured article... after some copyedit. I have some pictures to be added, especially of the palaces. Let me know, and... CIAO!! Attilios 14:03, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
Do you have a picture of this church to add? Attilios (P.S.: I have noticed that the Todi's Nicchioni picture is from yours. Thanks!)
I just added Santa Maria della Pace. Let me know if my architectural English is improving. I hope! Goodbye. User:Attilios
Una impressionante collezione di "perle" dall'articolo su Largo Torre Argentina.
Tralasciamo poi lo stile...
Non riesco proprio a spiegarmi come mai gli Anglosassoni commettono tutti questi stupidi errori quando si tratta di roba italiana. Io quando leggo qualcosa di inglese mica poi lo scrivo come pare a me, o no? Hai mai trovato su libri italiani "Palazzo di Westmister", "Wascinton" o "Wessecs". Boh?
Ciao!! Attilios
Dear Bill, finally I can find some time to write to your english page. I'm Lorenzo, the Architect from Sansepolcro, who asked for an opinion about the ancient Biturgia of Ptolomy. Excuse my Late reply, but I've got some working trouble, and I also wanted to talk with GRAS (Gruppo Ricerche Archeologiche Sansepolcro) members.
So, now i think I've some more time. First of all, my e.mail:
loribop@aruba.it
as you may remember my e-mail towards you were refused all time.. i don't know ho to do. Meanwhile you have mine.
The Gras, doesn't have one yet, but there is a new. This winter was founded an association to work with the Gras. It is the CESQ (Centro Studi del Quaternario). And the Cesq has a newsletter, and if you wish I can make your name and subscrive you to it. It's obviously free.
Other thing. I talked with Gras members and president (Giampiero Laurenzi) about our discusison about Biturgia. He was very happy, and pleased me to thanks you for all the study and also for the discussion. Also, he said, if you came in Italy, near here, please let us know because all the GRAS would be pleased to have a visit from you!
So, thanks again, and let me know if you'd like to receive news from CESQ. bye, Lorenzo Daveri --81.75.149.41 09:56, 4 May 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your help in the USMAPs article; it needed it. :) My brother just graduated there 2 weeks ago, and I plan to scan in his diploma for a better version of the West Point Prep crest. If you have any ideas please add, there wasn't very much that I could find.

Hy Bill!
Let me in Italian.
La affermazione: "...to the point that Norcia has given its name to such products: in Italian, norcineria." non e' esatta dal punto di vista storico-concettuale.
Con "Norcineria" in italiano non si intende tutto cio' che ha a che vedere con il maiale, quanto il particolare tipo di negozio ( macelleria suina) dove sono venduti solo prodotti ricavati dalla carne di maiale.
Il fatto che questo genere di macellerie vengano definite in molte citta' della Italia centrale e meridionale "norcinerie" non e' dovuto al fatto che Norcia sia famosa per la lavorazione della carne di maiale quanto perche', originariamente, esse erano gestite da norcini, ovvero persone originarie della citta' di Norcia, che abbandonarono la propria citta' per impiantare attivita' commerciali altrove.
E' la parola "Salumi" che in italiano intende generalmente tutto cio' che ha a che vedere con la carne di maiale stagionata, mentre non esiste un termine alternativo a maiale per quanto riguarda la carne fresca.
Credo che la affermazione dovrebbe essere corretta.
Per confronto, controlla il seguente vocabolario italiano on-line alla voce "norcineria":

Hi Bill, good to see you on Wikipedia. Just wanted to let you know I'm closing down my Churches of Rome site soon, which is actually good news – I'm releasing it all under GFDL, adapting it and moving it to the Churches of Rome Wiki at Wikia. Cnyborg 00:41, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
Hi there. I recently removed a link from Natural History (Pliny) and which you quickly re-instated. When I click the link, I get this message, "Forbidden You don't have permission to access /holland/index.html on this server."
You appear to be based at the University of Chicago, so you presumably have permission to access all their archived material, but the rest of the world doesn't. Perhaps you talk to someone at the university about loosening the restrictions on their website? I can't imagine the bandwidth used by folks researching Pliny is all that great.
Anyway, I'm going to cut out the link again, but feel free to reinstate (again!) if the site becomes open to the general public. (ps - I can access your personal pages (including the latin version of Pliny) just fine. Matt Deres 19:23, 13 July 2006 (UTC)
Bill - help me! User:WikiRat1 is back and vandalising Caratacus with his British Israelite nonsense again, and I'm fed up being the only one standing up to him. I've posted scans of the relevant passages of Dio both from Carey and Boissevain and linked to the Foster translation at Project Gutenberg, but he keeps blithely insisting that Dio says Caratacus was a Christian. --Nicknack009 17:40, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
Dear Bill,
Thanks for the message on my talk page. Firstly, let me say that it is a pleasure to have a conversation with someone who makes clear points, in a collaborative and open manner, and who avoids any kind of "I'm right, you're wrong, any one who disagrees with me is an idiot" dialogue.
So, to the matter in hand. I assure you that I have visited every site before deleting it, which has been a laborious and time-consuming process. Yes, I know, I really should get a life. I cannot exclude the possibility that in this I have accidentally deleted an occasional site that probably is correctly included, and one that you mention certainly sounds like it might be among them. However, I am sure (and have just revisted the Umbria page to confirm) that this is not the case generally. Most of the links that you have put back do indeed fall into the category of commercial and/or vanity publishing. I would encourage you to visit them and see for yourself.
I will not revert the changes pending further conversations which, given your earlier contribution to the debate, I am sure will lead to a consensus.
Right, that's enough amiability and reasonableness; I'm right, you're wrong, yah boo.
--Bcnviajero 12:30, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
FYI The article heading is incorrect. If I am not mistaken (I do not have a copy of Almanach de Gotha at hand), by the rules of Italian nobility, Marina Torlonia was not a titular princess, though her father was a prince. She was, instead, "Donna," not Princess, though the latter title is often how she was referred to in newspapers, et cetera, during her lifetime, usually incorrectly.

Regarding your edit here, I don’t think I had heard the word since my dad died. I’ll make a mid-year resolution to use it, in public, at least once a week. Seriously (or equally seriously, now I pause for thought) it prompted me to drop you a note of appreciation for the great work you have put in—here and elsewhere—to making the web worthwhile. Thank you, Ian Spackman 21:00, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
I was the one who emailed you about that, actually :) I was planning to fix this today. Thanks for your reply! You're right I should have looked at the sourcecode, which you mention in your introduction to Dio's Roman History, so sorry for bothering you about it. I browsed through all your FAQs before sending my email but forgot to check the most important page :) Cheers. --Steerpike 11:20, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
Do you have the connections to have some pages related to Vitruvius completed. I noticed that many of the people and places mentioned in his books either have no page or a page with little information. Possibly you know people who are knowledgeable about ancient Rome or Greece and given a name or place could provide relevant information. Vitruvius work reads like an outline with many places and people named but little additional information provided. He appears to expect the reader to either know the corresponding information or find it out for themselves. If his outline was incorporated into Wikipedia and the information added by those knowledgeable, the result would be good.
In response to your writings concerning editing of Wikipedia by non-registered editors resulting in sludge, I disagree. It may sound like anarchy but form a philosophical standpoint it seems that the less control and regulation exerted the better the final result. Vandalized pages are easily reverted to a previous state by the next visitor and having the possibility of incorrect information on a page gives the reader reason to verify using other sources. Wikipedia open access makes it great, otherwise it would be just another established journal compromised to death. Otherwise I enjoyed reading your thoughts on Wikipedia and found it knowledgeable and informative. Granite07 02:04, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Hello – thanks for the message. I reverted you because I'm the person who expanded this article from a stub. I have a Questia annual membership at my own expense (if it's any of your business) and I find it valuable because it's easy to search, read, and do work on different projects. I did several hours of research on Questia and elsewhere before I expanded it, and I added every reference in the article using Questia and other research tools.
The source in question, The Writings of George Washington from the Original Manuscript Sources, 1745–1799, edited by John C. Fitzpatrick, is used at Wikipedia in George Washington and Jonathan Plowman Jr., and it should be used _more_ often, not less. The papers take up 39 volumes at the Library of Congress. They were edited by Fitzpatrick as part of the Washington Bicentennial, when the Library of Congress cooperated with Fitzpatrick to organize and publish them under the authority of Congress. It is a United States Government Printing Office document, it is available on microfilm at the Library of Congress, several hardcover volumes are available at Amazon.com, and it is available online here. I used the Questia version because that was the place I was working at the time. I was honest about the format I accessed, and there's nothing wrong with using an online database of works in the public domain.
I've added the reference back in its original form; I don't have the time or the inclination to find it at the UVA site, especially when my original work was sufficient. If you want to find it at the UVA site and change the URL accordingly, be my guest, but unless you can demonstrate that this source is not a reliable one, it should remain in the article. I don't think I'm the one who "went too fast" here. Thanks again for the message. - KrakatoaKatie 23:53, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Giuseppe Colucci (antiquarian) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding ((hangon))
to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Kannie | talk 02:21, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

why are *Mamurra & *Julius Caesar relevant summary: Mamurra, a colleague, who had a close relation with Julius Caesar, Vitruvius felt Mamurra was received favoritism and more recognition because of political reasons. (Julius Caesar link is redundant)
This is a recurring theme throughout the 10 books. It was important enough to mention half a dozen times in the books. Does need explanation rather than just links, I hoped someone else with more knowledge or better literary skills would notice connection and write it. Mamurra is not named by name in the 10 books, circumstantial this is who Vitruvius is referring to, so I can not write this. Granite07 (talk) 20:54, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

It is spam to link its own website
The IP that made the threat has been blocked, and I followed up with blocking the other IP (obviously the same individual with a tenuous grasp of English). On the other hand, you should probably go easy on making links to your own site. While the site isn't commercial, the number of links added does raise some WP:COI questions. I'm not going to remove the links, but just giving you a heads up that the topic was brought up at the Project Spam talk page. That said, you've contributed a lot of great content.

Hey man, relax yourself ! I've not intention to smash anything, ok ? Where do you live, in Mars ? Simply, You were so kind answering to me and i became also kind answering to you: love with love is payed, you've started, what hell you want ? If you feel so offended you could not offend me, you could talk to me before start the harrassing with lies and lies and calling me vandal, newbie or other false and stupid things. As you can see by now i've absolutely nothing wiht that towns, that i don't know. I was too evil answering ? Ok, i was. But you can't start a discussion saying that somebody you don't know are uninnocent vandal, newbie or other else. Uninnocent vandal ?!?!? Are you drunk ? What hell of international conspiracy have you seen behind that categories ? So, don't do the victim or the tragedy, you've started offending (inventing) and'i ve simply answered to you. When somebody attacks me i answer by myself, i don't wait for others. If you don't like it, i repeat, don't see false things to other people but try to talk as a civil person.
For Oh no it's jamie reguarding the "tenuous grasp of english": Jamie, you're anglophone, i'm sure. Anglophones may absolutely shut up about "tenuous grasps".

The phrase might not be a stupid and racist nonsenses as "bonjour camembert vive la france", "eins zwei polizei heil führer", "ciao pizza spaghetti mafioso", "hasta la vista torero" or "kalimera kalispera". The phrase might be a sensed discussion long as this one, this tenuous grasp. Are you able doin'it ? I don't thing so. You're only lucky because your language is become the "world standard" ... why ? Thanx to genocides of british colonial empire in lot of centuries. So, think to your boring ignorance of any language and "ne me casser pas les pied"... Whooops: the baby don't understand french ?

I realize it was nearly 2 years ago, but I wonder if you can look at this diff. The page scan of the 1911 encyclopedia, which this article mostly duplicates, clearly has Italiorum (scan is here). However, my ear and my rudimentary Latin would agree with you that Italicorum is more likely to be correct. That said, I did change it to the EB1911 original version. Clearly I don't have access to the original by Toscanus (or Tuscanus, the EB1911 spelling) and can't find any authorities online. What did you base the change on?
BTW, I'm only interested because I picked this article almost at random as an example of the unreliability of Wikisource, a topic that has become current in Wikipedia talk:Plagiarism. s:1911 Encyclopædia Britannica/Aleandro, Girolamo has, by my count, 38 transcription errors, due obviously to its having been lifted from the jrank version and never fixed.

A tag has been placed on Category:747 births requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay.
