message: How does the current title of the article Pietro Damiani (which is modern Italian) relate to normal English usage? I have never encountered the man's name otherwise than as Peter Damian or Petrus Damiani. Is Pietro Damiani even attested? Iblardi 15:12, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Couldn't move it to a page with that title since it already redirected here. I decided to make it Petrus Damiani, the Latin form of his name, which makes sense insofar as Latin is the language he and his colleagues wrote in and the Latinized form of his name would be the one he was known by to both contemporaries and later generations, and I would say that the traditional Latin form is probably much better known to the English speaking world than the Italian form.

message: It's funny how he studied and taught at the University of Parma when the first universities in Europe were still a century in the future. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.251.7.96 (talk • contribs) 
:University of Parma says it was founded in 962. In fact it was a Studium like several others at the time which were then succeeded by universities. So it's a common simplification to translate the pre-universitas Latin name as "university of X". This is a bit misleading especially when it's done only for the sake of claiming historical continuity and a very ancient foundation date for the current entity, but I don't know how to fix all the related articles. --Nemo 07:25, 3 September 2017 (UTC)
