Talk:Dacia (disambiguation)

message: : 14 % of Dacia - under Roman occupation.
Actually it was more than that. Romans conquered Dobrogea, Oltenia, Banat and most of Transylvania. It's almost half of today's Romania. Bogdan | Talk 22:30, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Scandinavia was listed because it is mentioned in, and linked-to from, Jacob the Dacian. I am restoring the listing as warranted and helpful to readers. SergeWoodzing (talk) 19:54, 20 December 2010 (UTC)

As of this edit, hasn't the page gotten pretty screwed up? Looks like partially an article, partially a disambiguation page now, with undue stress given to certain listings. Doesn't it? SergeWoodzing (talk) 21:58, 27 December 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Still a disambiguation page? 

message: What (under Dacia as Denmark) is 
*(e.g. Cal. Patent Rolls H III, 1225-32)
and how on earth is it supposed to be understood by the average reader? SergeWoodzing (talk) 12:23, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Incomprehensibly abbreviated entry 

message: Re: this edit summary comment, there was no useful information there except "a car manufactured by Romanian auto marque Dacia", and I explained what I was doing in the edit summary. I'm glad that some differentiation between the cars has been added now. I didn't have that info, or I would have added it myself. SergeWoodzing (talk) 17:14, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I've put back the single-word statements of what kind of car each is, but have left out the dates of production - it's useful to have a minimal statement for each disambig entry, but there shouldn't be too much and there shouldn't be things might vary from the article -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 17:21, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  "why has all the information been stripped out without adding anything useful back?"

message: The reason I added initially the other Roman Dacias was to alleviate the confusion. The Romans literally moved the province of Dacia from the north to the south of Danube, which complicates things a lot. Actually they renamed parts of Moesia as Dacia to hide the fact that they lost a province.
If we want to represent the hierarchy and chronology correctly, it looks like this:
* Roman Dacia (also known as Dacia Felix and Dacia Traiana), an ancient Roman imperial province (106 - 275 AD) in modern Romania, cropped out of the conquered south-western Dacia in 106 AD
** Dacia Superior, meaning Upper Dacia a relabeling of Roman Dacia province after the 118 AD reorganization done by Hadrian
*** Dacia Apulensis, a Roman province created from southern portion of Dacia Superior, after the 158 AD reorganization done by Antoninus Pius; it included Banat and southern Transylvania, and had Apulum as its capital
***  Dacia Porolissensis, a Roman province created from northern portion of Dacia Superior, after the 124 AD reorganization done by Hadrian; it has Porolissum as its capital
** Dacia Inferior, meaning Lower Dacia, a Roman province created from portions of Moesia Inferior to the north of the Danube, after the 118 AD reorganization done by Hadrian
*** Dacia Malvensis, a relabeling of Dacia Inferior province  after the 158 AD reorganization done by Antoninus Pius; it included Oltenia and had Romula/Malva as its capital
* Dacia Aureliana, an ancient Roman province in modern Bulgaria and Serbia, established south of the Danube after the retreat from Roman Dacia (275 AD)
** Dacia Mediterranea, a part of the former Dacia Aureliana divided by Constantine the Great
** Dacia Ripensis, an ancient Roman province, part of Dacia Aureliana, after year 275 in modern Bulgaria and Serbia, south of Danube
* Diocese of Dacia, a Roman diocese in a larger area of of modern Serbia and northern Bulgaria encompassing the provinces of Dacia Mediterranea, Moesia Superior, Dardania, Praevalitana and Dacia Ripensis.
Hope this clarifies. The way it is now, it is nice, but could be confusing. It is really not an easy disambiguation page.--Codrin.B (talk) 17:30, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: All that new information is good, yes, but it needs to be in actual articles and not in the disambig page - I'd suggest you just create short articles for each province, and then there would be no disagreement over adding them to the disambig page -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 17:37, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I am planning to make those articles. But in meantime, you created a hierarchy which looks nice but is incorrect historically. Some history buff will come along and change it because of what I described above. Just put this disambig on your watchlist ;-) Regards.--Codrin.B (talk) 17:41, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: It's currently just in alphabetical order, which is the convention at disambiguation pages - I look forward to the new articles -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 18:01, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  The Roman Dacias 

message: Dacia Maraini and Dacia Valent are noted as frequently referred as Dacia ? In my memory not. Should we delete the two entries ?
From  "Persons who have the ambiguous term as surname or given name should not be in the same section of the disambiguation page as the other links unless they are very frequently referred to simply by the single name (e.g., Elvis, Shakespeare)" --Robertiki (talk) 21:20, 15 November 2013 (UTC)
