Talk:Lycosura

message: This is a great page! I do think the style of presentation and placement of images does, however, need a little work to fit the Wikipedia Manual of Style (WP:MOS). Some of the images could be reduced in size and it would be good if they have suitable license they could be transwikied to the Commons so they could be used by other editors. I'm going to tag these images as such when I get a minute and have a go at improving the layout. This would mean not all images would need to be displayed in the article as there could be an official link to the WikiCommons category. Hope this is ok and understandable Madmedea 14:48, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I have now modified the format of the images extensively, still working on the second restoration image.  I also changed the capitalization of directions and section headings.  I would be interested to hear your further suggestions.--Nefasdicere 20:37, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Good work so far. I'm going to do a little tweak myself. Let me know what you think. If you want some inspiration check out Olympia, Greece and Delphi which I've been working on lately - they are still, however, works in progress! Madmedea 20:56, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks, and you. I like keeping the images to one side per section and the other edits you did.  I am going to rotate three of the images to get them in the section with the discussion.  The veil is not as visually interesting, but I think that it needs to be in the Megaron section due to its significance, so I will just bump another down to the gallery.--Nefasdicere 22:35, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Me again. The article also needs in line citations to the secondary sources used. This would improve the article considerably and help it move up to 'Good article' status (WP:CITE). Madmedea 14:50, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I will do this around the middle of March at latest.--Nefasdicere 20:38, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Citations

message: Granted, on Google Books the Latin name gets 11,100 results, more than the 6,880 results for the Greek name. But because the difference is so small, I think there are a few factors which are decisive for the favour of the Greek name:
*It was a Greek city in Greece. Even if it was conquered by Rome later, they still spoke Greek.
*The official website of the Greek government uses the Greek spelling.
*So does the Princeton Encyclopedia which is in the External links section.
On the other hand, some other cities like Miletus, Ephesus and many others are also referred to by their Latin names, so I'll undo my change. However, can anyone give a reference for the use of the name Paleokastro? I could find any, so I removed the name. --AlexanderVanLoon (talk) 19:24, 12 June 2013 (UTC)
