At present there is only a small part of the Corpus Juris Civilis entry that covers the Codex or Justinian's Code. This will be a separate entry on that subject. I created separate entries on the Digest and the Institutes for that same reason, so I can't see why this entry should be deleted. Please explain. Noailles.

After lookg at the comparison I should add that both entries are mine. The one on the left hand side showed up as part of the subdivision of the existing entry on the CJC, whereas the other is the new one I did this morning. I suppose it happened because I don't fully understand how to do this. However, I did successfully create the entries on the Novellae Consitutiones and the Institutes of Justinian, so I'm not sure why what I did today didn't work. In any case, I think it makes sense to have separate, longer entries for each of the CJC units, in addition to having the briefer explanations of them in the entry covering the CJC as a whole.

Fall of West Rome
The text says "Justinian's Codex was largely lost in the West with the fall of the Western Roman Empire..." Afaik, the Western Empire well with the Visigoths invasion of 476. Would be great if someone could sort that out. --94.223.160.154 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 22:08, 25 May 2016 (UTC)

Merge from Codex Repetitae Praelectionis
That tiny stub that just states it was a later edition of CJ doesn't seem notable on its own. I suggest redirecting and merging here. Thoughts? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 04:19, 16 November 2018 (UTC)
 * ✅ If no additional information of substantial value for that particular edition can be found, I support the Merge.-- Sıgehelmus (Tålk) 22:53, 16 November 2018 (UTC)

Codex Justinianeus → Codex Justinianus – In Italian it is indeed "giustinianeo" but in Latin the current name is not as common. We shouldn't try to "correct" the language. 92.184.116.104 (talk) 17:24, 25 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment. The proposed title is an improvement. But it should be "Code of Justinian" per this ngram and WP:USEENGLISH. Allan Rice (talk) 04:53, 26 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I would also support either "Code of Justinian" or possibly "Justinian Code" per WP:UE.  Calidum   15:54, 26 May 2020 (UTC)
 * Support, but it would be nice to have a source that expressly addresses the issue of spelling. Code of Justinian equally acceptable. Srnec (talk) 03:07, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I would support any of these alternatives. Richard75 (talk) 23:07, 4 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Support move to Code of Justinian per WP:COMMONAME. Google Search gives 1.2 million hits vs Codex Justinianus which only has 265k. Jerm (talk) 04:31, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Move to Codex Justinianus "Code of Justinian" also refers to both this and Corpus Juris Civilis, but Codex Justinianeus is only one part that makes up Corpus Juris Civilis. The others are Novellae Constitutiones, Digest (Roman law), and Institutes of Justinian, therefore, I would convert Code of Justinian into a dab page. Jerm (talk) 04:57, 5 June 2020 (UTC)


 * Support move to Code of Justinian; disambiguation would be disfavored here as it would create a WP:ONEOTHER page, and the Corpus Juris Civilis already states that "Codex Justinianus" is the work more properly referred to as the Code of Justinian. All of the other potential parts are listed in the first paragraph, so this topic already meets WP:DABCONCEPT. BD2412  T 16:46, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
