The result was redirect to Marcus Furius Camillus (consul AD 8). Because the contents have been merged (without proper attribution), the history should not be deleted in order to preserve this attribution. Sandstein 15:43, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Identical with Marcus Furius Camillus (consul AD 8). Avilich (talk) 17:40, 23 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

merge - identical subject, although I must admit, it seems this one is better written than Marcus Furius Camillus (consul AD 8). If nobody objects, I'll do a non-admin close and merge the articles per wp:duplicate. BrxBrx(talk)^{(please reply with {{SUBST:re|BrxBrx}})} 17:53, 23 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@BrxBrx: I already merged the content of the articles, all that remains is for someone to delete it. This one is poorly written too, it just sounds better than the other because I pasted the content from this one onto the other so I could delete this as quickly as possible. Do a non-admin delete closure instead. Avilich (talk) 18:46, 23 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Deletion outright might be overkill. Since everything has been merged from this article to the other, converting this one to a redirect would be quicker & require less effort. (Although there are few articles that link to this one, & they could be redirected to Marcus Furius Camillus (consul AD 8).) -- llywrch (talk) 09:21, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
already done that too. Avilich (talk) 14:22, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, once all the incoming links are redirected. If it were a plausible variation, I would keep it as a redirect; but it's not. Romans didn't use iterations this way, and modern sources only add them in ways that make it clear they're only being used to distinguish between homonymous individuals, and not as part of their names. The only reason anyone would use this link—apart from editors who know of an article's existence at this title—is because it occurs in the search window, so it can safely be deleted. Anyone typing the name will find one of the persons who does have an article, and those articles can mention homonymous individuals as necessary and appropriate.

Redirect is cheap and harmless. No objection to deletion. Peterkingiron (talk) 19:10, 24 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
