Massive cleanup needed

This article is a mess. For example, the building now standing is the Curia Julia, not the Curia Hostilia; this article confusingly sometimes conflates the two. Much better information can be found in Platner's "A Topographical Dictionary of Ancient Rome" [1] or of course in Claridge's excellent "Rome" in the Oxford Archaeological Guides series (ISBN 0192880039) which however deals only with the Curia Julia. I see the recent Oberlin tag, so I'll hold off on working on this. Whogue 03:35, 24 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't hold off. It isn't meant to be {{editing}}, merely letting people know that it was being looked at. The Oberlin project made it in to the New York Times[2], but that doesn't mean that it should take precedence over other people's work. Please continue editing the page. This is a collaborative project after all. BTW, Claridge is one of our course texts and Platner is one of our suggested sources for the off-wiki portion of our project.—WAvegetarian•(talk) 15:30, 24 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I am very tired of the misconceptions about the Curias. This page needs to be split. There were 4 major curias during the ancient Roman era. The Curia Hostilia being the first one located within the forum, the Curia Cornelia which replaced the Curia Hostilia after it was destroyed, the Curia of the Theatre of Pompey (where Julius Caesar was murdered, and where the senate met while the Curia Julia was being built and the old Curia Cornelia was being converted to a temple.)--Amadscientist (talk) 20:22, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Splitting page

I will be splitting the page. Any objections....we can always change it back....but I think this article as it stands is inaccurate, confusing and misleading.

I am attempting to fix several related Roman articles that are linked together. I believe this is an article of great importance as well as the subsequent articles to be created.--Amadscientist (talk) 20:42, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article is now "Curia Hostilia

I have transfered all relative information about the Curia Julia to its own page and will be editing it to be more accurate. I will aslo be creating a page for the Curia of Cornelia. While the Curia Hostilia and the Curia Cornelia stood in the same location they were two seperate and different buildings. The Curia Hostilia was the smallest of all of them.--Amadscientist (talk) 21:26, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Good work! Classical geographer (talk) 14:15, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In order to keep the pages as they are designed for talk....I have removed the redirect from the talk page of the Curia Hostilia and returned this talk page to the correct location. Oops...but it's fixed now.--Amadscientist (talk) 22:40, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Article format Project participation

I have begun formatting all related articles to the Roman Forum and in regards to Julius Caesar. A first step towards improving each article and making them flow better through links to each other with both accurate and corresponding information. Too many articles have contradicting information.--Amadscientist (talk) 11:04, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

When did the senate stop meeting there/stop existing?

I'm sure I read in a text that the Roman senate actually kept meeting in this building until at least a few decades before it was turned into a church. It's just curious that the senate kept meeting for some reason. I will try to find it before thinking of adding it of course, but it shows how much more information could be added to this article, I know of at least one entire book alone that was written about the building. 203.7.42.67 (talk) 12:47, 20 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Why "Julia"

Is it called "Julia" because Julius Caesar started it, or some other reason?
