Talk:Fulvia

message: The article says: "During the war, Octavian's soldiers at Perusia used sling bullets inscribed with insults directed at Fulvia personally" and cites The Roman History by Velleius Paterculus, 2.74.3. However, the source actually doesn't mention anything like this.

thread_title: A source doesn't say what the article claims it says

message: This entry claims in the introduction (unsupported I might add) that Fulvia was the first non-mythological woman to appear on Roman coinage. To the contrary, author Ken Webb notes in "The Augustan Age" (p.81) that Octavia, sister of Augustus, was the first non-mythological woman to appear on Roman coinage, which indeed seems more likely. I can't help but think the writer of this sentence was in error. 60.242.210.126 (talk) 11:31, 22 September 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't know the dates of the coinage featuring Octavia, but sInce Fulvia's activities occurred before Octavian became Augustus, Webb would seem to be the one in error. Fulvia died in 40 BC, nearly a decade before the Battle of Actium gave Octavian sole supremacy. Cynwolfe (talk) 16:10, 22 September 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I checked other sources, and you appear to be right. Thanks for clearing that up for me. 60.242.210.126 (talk) 09:01, 24 September 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: Coinage error

message: The citation style currently used, of placing URLs in the text with each appearance of an inline citation prevents the appearance of a critical piece of information, the access date that the URL was checked.
This has the added problem of making citations that lack URLs—and in writing about classics, this should be many, because many good sources are not digitized—appear as non links, and therefore different in appearance.
I propose changing the style of the article, moving the URLs from within the text, to the relatively standard location, in the bibliography, so that the access date can appear for each.
I also propose adding "p." for each entry where the number refers to a page, "§" for each entry where the number refers to section, etc. (because numbers following classic sources can be confusing to lay readers.
I have made this change for one citation, Weir, as an example. I propose the remainder of the bibliography follow suit. This is 30-60 mins work, to check each URL, add the access date (date check is made)—many are the same URL, and so many will be covered with the same check—and to tag any broken links that have crept in.
Please discuss here.  Le Prof  71.239.87.100 (talk) 14:11, 18 April 2015 (UTC)
