Talk:Cratillus, son of Machatas

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The article is a clear case of speedy. Apart from not passing wp:N: 1. his name is misspelled, 2. the only incription that mentions him preserves only part of this name, 3. The inscription reads: Κρατίλλου τοῦ Μαχά[τα][[1]], and it's in genetive: the endings should be added: so I speculate that Kratillos son of Machatas would be the correct title in this article (per Cabanes, Hatzopolous, and the rest of the bibliography). Machatas was a typical Greek name found amoung the NW -Greek speaking idioms.Alexikoua (talk) 11:36, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. If we follow this logic, then how should this title be translated?!: ΕΠΙΤΟΜΗ ΤΗΣ ΙΣΤΟΡΙΑΣ ΤΟΥ ΓΕΩΡΓΙΟΥ ΤΟΥ ΚΑΣΤΡΙΩΤΟΥ ΤΟΥ ΕΠΟΝΟΜΑΣΘΕΝΤΟΣ ΣΚΕΝΤΕΡΜΠΕΗ ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΤΗΣ ΑΛΒΑΝΙΑΣ - EPITOMI TIS ISTORIAS TOU GEORGIOU TOU KASTRIOTOU TOU EPONOMASTHENTOS SKENTERMPEI VASILEOS TIS ALVANIAS!!! --Drenisa (talk) 20:54, 26 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You understand that's a completely irrelevant personality. I assume there is no argument against the original name as found in the only one inscription.Alexikoua (talk) 19:12, 28 June 2022 (UTC) Alexikoua (talk) 19:12, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Is this notable?

[edit]

@Drenisa: can you explain to me what makes this subject notable for inclusion on wikipedia? Maleschreiber (talk) 20:20, 30 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. The name Kratill(os) Mahata is mentioned in 5 different sources, by different authors, in 4 different languages (Ancient Greek, Albanian, French and German) which accompany the article. Since I have created the article in question, I am not against renaming or moving the article, but I am against deleting it. Thank you. Drenisa (talk) 21:33, 30 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I have doubts about the WP:notability of this person. If this article is kept, I think the correct name should be used according to the inscription that attests him, which I think is "Kratillos, son of Mahata" or "Kratillos, son of Machata". However more reliable sources should be examined for this. – Βατο (talk) 22:48, 3 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The article should be nominated for deletion. I fail to see how this person is in anyway notable.Alltan (talk) 19:31, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
