Hi Caligatus, you seem to be a specialist in roman inscriptions. Non-specialists like me dont understand what CIL is. I have found it nevertheless in Wikipedia, but I could not find a source, where I could look after the signature CIL VI 37928.

Bonjour Caligatus, je me permet de t'écrire en français, car j'ai vu sur ta boite utilisateur que tu le comprenais en partie. Si cela pose problème dis le moi, j'essayerais alors de rédiger mon message en anglais pour faciliter notre compréhension.
J'ai bien vu ta remarque ici : Todavía están por clasificar ¿por qué destruirlas sin comprobar o indicar que se ha comprobado su catalogación?. Merci de m'excuser si j'ai fait une mauvaise manœuvre. Toutefois, les inscriptions en question sont bien dans les catalogues (AE 1968, 00319 ; AE 1969/70, 00434 ; CIL XII, 01178). J'ai du rater une étape, mais je ne comprend pas laquelle... Peux-tu m'expliquer ce que je dois faire, quand une inscription n'est plus not identified ?
Au passage je voulais te féliciter pour tout le travail que tu produit dans l'entretient et la gestion des inscriptions sur Commons (en particulier de la page du CIL, et de celles en rapport). J'espère ainsi que mes interventions pourront modestement aider ce projet. Amicalement.

[traducción google] Caligatus Hola, me puedes escribir en francés, porque vi en tu carpeta de usuario que entiende en parte. Si este es el problema me dicen, entonces yo trato de escribir mi mensaje en Inglés para facilitar la comprensión.
Vi tu comentario aquí: "Todavía están por clasificar ¿por qué destruirlas sin comprobar o indicar que se ha comprobado su catalogación?" Gracias a disculparme si he hecho una mala jugada. Sin embargo, los registros en cuestión se encuentran en los catálogos (AE 1968, 00319 ; AE 1969/70, 00434 ; CIL XII, 01178). Me he perdido un paso, pero no entiendo cual... ¿Puede usted explicar a mí lo que debo hacer, cuando el anuncio no es mas "not identified" ?
Por cierto, quería felicitarte por todo el trabajo que se produce en el mantenimiento y gestión de las inscripciones en Commons (en particular la página del Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum, y las relacionadas). Espero y mis modestas intervenciones pueden ayudar a este proyecto. Saludos

Varias imagens

Hola Caligatus, solo quisiera avisarte brevemente, que he fecho los cambios siguientes a varias imagens, que tu has creadas en commons.

He transferido todas las categorias, que a mi opinion pertenecen a la inscripcion misma, en la categoria de la inscripcion. Solo las categorias, que a mi opinion pertenecen al imagen misma, continuan con la imagen. A ver, por ejemplo, la categoria CIL II 004114.

He fecho isso porque tengo la intencion de crear categorias por soldados de los legiones romanos en commons (y en el wiki aleman tambien) y as vezes existen varias imagens por la misma inscripcion. A ver, por ejemplo, las categorias CIL XIII 008625 o CIL XIII 006509.

Pienso que de esta manera es mas facil de grupar y estructura las inscripciones, especialmente los inscripciones, que pertenecen a los legiones romanos. Si no te gustan los cambios o si tienes otras ideas, digame.

Saludos --Agentjoerg (talk) 05:44, 18 September 2021 (UTC)

Hi Caligatus, I forgot to mention, that another reason for my structuring of the categories was the problem: how to deal with concordances. For example, according to the EDCS, CIL 03, 11310 = CIL 03, 14360,01. In order to handle this, I created both CIL-inscriptions as categories and linked them by adding CIL 03, 14360,01 to CIL 03, 11310, but added depending categories like Legio X Gemina only to CIL 03, 11310. If you have other ideas, let me know. --Agentjoerg (talk) 09:03, 18 September 2021 (UTC)

Perfect. Thank you. scutum (talk) 18:42, 19 December 2024 (UTC)

A question

Hola Caligatus,

I wanted to ask you something about two governors:

1) Category:Gaius Iulius Cerealis, governor of Hispania nova citerior Antoniniana, inscription Category:CIL II 002661: [leg(atus)] / Aug(usti) pr(o) pr(aetore) pr(ovinciae) H(ispaniae) n(ovae) c(iterioris) An[toni]/nianae post divi[sam] / provinc(iam) primus)

2) Category:Titus Pomponius Proculus Vitrasius Pollio, governor of Hispania Tarraconensis, inscription Category:CIL II 005679: leg(atus) Aug(usti) pr(o) / pr(aetore) provinciar(um) / Moesiae inf(erioris) et / Hisp(aniae) citer(ioris)

The Category:Legio VII Gemina had been assigned to both the pictures of the inscription categories above mentioned, even though Legio VII Gemina was not in the two inscriptions. Therefore I removed Category:Legio VII Gemina from both pictures.

But then I had second thoughts, because there were provinces like Noricum or Raetia with only one legion in garrison, where the governor of the province was at the same time the commander of the legion, e.g. Category:Marcus Iuventius Surus Proculus. I have literature, that confirms, that in Noricum and Raetia the governor was at the same time the commander of the legion in the province. But I have no literature for Hispania Tarraconensis (and Hispania nova citerior Antoniniana) that would confirm, that the governor in these two provinces was at the same time the commander of Legio VII Gemina.

Therefore I wanted to ask you, if you have information about this. If you have literature, that confirms,, that the governor in these two provinces was at the same time the commander of Legio VII Gemina, than I would add the Category:Inscriptions (Legio VII Gemina) to the inscriptions above mentioned and Category:Legatus (Legio VII Gemina) to the two governors.

Saludos Agentjoerg (talk) 10:10, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

Good morning: In the case of Tarraconenesis, the legatus provinciae was of consular rank, so the Legio VII Gemina had its own legatus legionis of praetorian rank; when the Hispania Citerior Nova Antoniniana province was short-lived, its legatus was also a legionary legatus. Kind regards.scutum (talk) 12:26, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

Ok, that sounds good in the case of Titus Pomponius Proculus Vitrasius Pollio and I assume, the removal of Category:Legio VII Gemina from Category:CIL II 005679 was therefore also ok. A last question, though, just to be clear about it: I assume, the legatus provinciae of Hispania Citerior Nova Antoniniana, Gaius Iulius Cerealis, was also of consular rank, when he was governor, because in the inscription stands C(aius) Iul(ius) Cerealis co(n)s(ul); is my assumption right? Is there any other reliable information about the status, praetorian or consular, of the short-lived province of Hispania Citerior Nova Antoniniana? Kind regards and thanks for your time. --Agentjoerg (talk) 12:57, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

He was indeed a consul and was sent as such to the new province to create it... but the exact rank of the province is unknown; Alföldy in the book Provincia Hispania Superior: Vorgelegt am 6 November 1999(Heidelberg 2000), maintained that it could be an equestrian province, although this is still an interpretation. scutum (talk) 15:12, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

Ok, thanks a lot. Then everything is fine and the categories will not be changed. --Agentjoerg (talk) 17:24, 3 January 2025 (UTC)

I also want to highlight what an incredible turnout we had. In the second round, we saw a massive jump in both the number of users voting and the total votes cast. We had exactly 13,979 votes cast by 3,509 users! To put that in perspective, last year we had 7,403 votes from 2,837 users. It is amazing to see that level of growth and community engagement.

Thank you to everyone who voted, helped organize, and generally made the contest such a huge success this year!
