[edit]

Pliny did not write that Juba II was the first person to discover the Canaries and Madeira; he merely described the expedition Juba had sent, which included descriptions of the islands and reports of abandoned buildings on some of the Canaries.

Identity of daughter with Cleopatra Selene

[edit]

The name of her daughter has been suggested as Drusilla, but sources state that the information is open to interpretation. See Selen for instance. Given the apparent competing theories I personally think that should be reflected in the article. --AnnekeBart (talk) 03:43, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Given that all the portraits of Juba are from a Roman period known for its realistic portraiture, it makes no sense to choose the least realistic of all for our article. Please read this study which explains why the bronze and its Madrid marble equivalent are considered fringe amongst all his known portraits. M.Bitton (talk) 23:53, 14 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Link to the previous discussion

Juba 2 and Juba of Mauretania are the same person (a fact that is easily checked with a simple search on Google), any claim that this is not the case needs to be substantiated with more than a single source that mentions a certain "Juba". M.Bitton (talk) 15:13, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I forgot to ping the concerned editors: Jahl de Vautban and StarTrekker. M.Bitton (talk) 15:18, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The main problem is that "Juba of Mauretania" was ill-named, as he was never of Mauretania. Let alone the name of the page, the fact there was a writer on metrics who based his work on Heliodorus and who was a different person than Juba II is well attested in standard works on antiquity[1][2][3]. Neither source is merely "mention[ing] a certain Juba", and instead each devote some length in describing him; at this point, I don't think that his existence as someone other than Juba II should be disputed. The fact that he meets or not the notability criteria is another matter, but if not then the page should be deleted, not redirected. --Jahl de Vautban (talk) 15:43, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The main problem is that "Juba of Mauretania" was ill-named how so?
he was never of Mauretania he became the king of Mauretania, so the "of Mauretania" is important to differentiate him from his father.
there was a writer on metrics is he described by RS as "Juba of Mauretania"? M.Bitton (talk) 15:51, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Apologies if that wasn't clear, but my claim of him not being of Mauretania was about the person previously described at Juba of Mauretania, not this Juba II. --Jahl de Vautban (talk) 15:56, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure I totally understand the issue, but regardless, creating a new article about the metric writer (as you suggested) is probably the way to go (assuming there are enough sources to warrant it). M.Bitton (talk) 16:02, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
To keep the page history, I'd prefer to restaure Juba of Mauretania to where I left it and rename it to Juba (writer on metric). The resulting redirection at Juba of Mauretania can then be changed to point to Juba II. --Jahl de Vautban (talk) 16:09, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Here, we're going back to square one as "Juba of Mauretania" is the common name for "Juba II". There really is no need for you to do that since all you want is to create a new article. If you don't want to lose what you wrore previously, just copy and paste it into the new article. Also, I believe that a better name for it would be Juba (Roman metrician) (but that's just my opinion). M.Bitton (talk) 16:12, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't see how we are going back to square one? Save the name what was written at Juba of Mauretania doesn't concern Juba II and I'm not intending of keeping the name "Juba of Mauretania" for the metrician. At the end of what I have outlined above, the situation will be the same as now, that is a page for Juba II, a redirect toward it at Juba of Mauretania and a new page at Juba (Roman metrician). The only difference with what you are proposing is that the whole history of Juba of Mauretania will have moved to Juba (Roman metrician). Per what is written at Help:Page_history#Moved_and_deleted_pages renaming the page is the way to go, otherwise I will have to ask for an history merge and surely the administrators have other things to do. --Jahl de Vautban (talk) 16:28, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You're making it more complicated than it ought to be. You don't need to merge anything given the old article (which should have never been created in the first place) is now a redirect (as it should be). Just create the new article (mention in the edit summary that the content has been moved from Juba of Mauretania) and be done with it. M.Bitton (talk) 16:32, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry but I'll stand my ground. The complicateness is on me, you'll have nothing to do. I fail to see how is that unreasonable. The page was standing until yesterday, it's not like I am restoring a page who was redirected three years ago. --Jahl de Vautban (talk) 16:38, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Be my guest. Also, don't remember to keep the content about the sources attributing his work to someone else on his article. I'm done here. M.Bitton (talk) 16:46, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Jahl de Vautban: As I said above, please keep content about someone else on the other article (unless you can find sources about Juba II that mention it). M.Bitton (talk) 17:01, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@M.Bitton: Did you read the source before reverting me? Had you, you would have read than it starts with "This Mauretanian monarch and prolific writer, the son of King Juba I of Numidia and grandson of Hiempsal". Isn't that Juba II? --Jahl de Vautban (talk) 17:07, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
What does the source say apart from what you quoted? M.Bitton (talk) 17:08, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You can read it yourself, it is available through the Wikipedia Library at [8]. The page automatically switch to Italian, but you can put it in English by clicking on "Qui si trova la versione inglese della scheda". --Jahl de Vautban (talk) 17:12, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I will check it at some point in the future (as I've wasted more than enough time on this today). M.Bitton (talk) 17:16, 5 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
