Talk:Julia Drusi Caesaris

I would like to know why the page "Julia Drusi Caesaris" is constantly redirected to the page "Julia Caesar". The daughter of Drusus the Younger was named Julia and was referred to in inscriptions as "Iulia Drusi filia" or "Iulia Drusi Caesaris filia". The name "Julia Caesar" is completely false. The cognomen "Caesar" was worn by the MALE members of the Imperial household. It was never worn by any woman. I just don't know who made up that name of "Julia Caesar". If one wishes to ascertain what I say, just look in the Prosopographia Imperii Romani (PIR) or any other serious and reliable source of information.

I noticed that many other wikipedia entries concerning members of the Julio-Claudian dynasty contain a lot of false or erroneous information (for instance, Antonia the Elder's full name was NOT Julia (???) Antonia Cretica (???) Major but just Antonia Major; Agrippina the Younger's full name was not Julia VIPSANIA (????) Agrippina Minor and she's called Agrippinilla only in Robert Graves' novels; Domitia Lepida's sister is not named Domitia Lepida Major but just Domitia, etc.).

I suspect some fellow to just make up information about Julio-Claudian family members. It's very sad, because this makes wikipedia a not very reliable source of information on the Web.

I couldn't agree more. All the things described above are simply harmful to Wikipedia's credibility as a source. And what a struggle it was removing the fictitious name "HELEN" (taken seemingly from Robert Graves).

Regarding the move... Copy-pasting the content is not a way to move an article. The [move] button is. This way the history of edits won't get lost. But since the target article already exists, I believe only an admin can do it. You can request such a move on WP:RM. For now, I'm reverting; hopefully for the last time. --Misza 13 T C 12:10, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

Betrothal to Sejanus in 30/31?
Dio Cassius's claim about Livilla’s daughter being betrothed to Sejanus seems to be most unsound (pace PIR „636 Iulia”). Cf. R.Seager, Tiberius (London, Eyre Methuen, 1972), page 213 note 6. 81.190.70.164.
