Too much subdivision, and amateurishly wrtitten[edit]

The article is now worse then when I put in a clean up request. The grammatical and compositional errors have been left in, and a great many subsection titles added, which in such a short article is visually unappealing and serves only to distract the reader. I did not do the clean up myself because I had been reading articles on Roman history and had become too immured in a jumble of information, dates, persons etc so I wanted a fresh outside perspective to tackle the problem. I will attempt it in a week or so. --AladdinSE 10:20, 22 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Shouldn't the infomation about Livilla and Claudius be under "Drusus and her children?" because it looks so annoying for it to be seperated by a title for just a few lines. That would be a good start. --Camblunt100 22:56, 13 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

PIR2 A 885[edit]

Can anyone explain what this, PIR2 A 885, mean? Mariule 12:26, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

PIR refers to 'Prosopographia Imperii Romani', an index of all persons mentioned in ancient literature from the Roman Republic to the Roman Empire together. The rest tells you where in PIR to locate the reference. As this is also given under 'other references' at the bottom of the article it would seem neater to combine the two at the bottom.

Antonia's Children - Claudius[edit]

The entire section seems to read as if from graves's novel i, claudius which is fiction. but i don't want to blank the the article, if anybody has a better idea please tell me otherwise in a few days i'll blank it and just redirect it to the Claudius page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tca achintya (talkcontribs) 11:50, 4 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Antonia MinorAntonia the Younger – It's all for consistency. Many Roman women's main pages in Wikipedia are referred as "the Elder" and "the Younger" when their Latin names were "Maior/Major" and "Minor" respectively. Thắng L.Đ.Q. (talk) 15:18, 6 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose. It's common for some individuals to be so described, and for others to be identified differently. Scholarly materials and translations vary considerably. There's no compelling reason to demand consistency across all cases, irrespective of how they're typically referred to in the source materials, or the writer's preference, and no utility in changing article titles that may be familiar because they're called one thing, for no better reason than that others are called differently. Consistency has its place, but I don't think the positives outweigh the negatives in this case. P Aculeius (talk) 02:48, 29 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. Same reasons as P.Aculeius.--Lamassus (talk) 17:07, 30 May 2015 (UTC) Lamassus (talkcontribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. It's true that I'm new on Wikipedia, but I have no relation whatever to P. Aculeius or any other author of this page. I simply expressed my opinion. Feel free to ignore it, I'm used to it. --Lamassus (talk) 20:49, 30 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
