The author would probably appreciate knowing if you enjoyed an article.   Please feel free to post.

Since I've been working on somewhat the same subject, I shall need to cite Ross Nightingale's article, and I may also, as work progresses, have questions to ask him, so I need to know, to some extent, who he is, what his professional affiliation may be, whether he is a Forvm member (can't look him up in the member list without his screen name: I tried).  I have spent years at Corinth, though not on coins; it is my favorite place in the world.
Why did you say that Corinth began minting only in the 3rd century BC?  What about the early Pony Pegasoi?

Joe Geranio: your pages work beautifully and interest me.  I'll comment after I've done them some justice.  Pat L.

Just finished a short article on Juba II and Cleopatra Selene.  Unfortunately when I created the page I only typed Juba II so when you search for Cleopatra Selene nothing shows up.  I can't figure out how to change the article so that it sees both Juba II and Cleopatra Selene when you do a search.  Am I missing somehting?

I also can't figure out how to turn the links on...

It comes up as a reference with just Selene in the search box

Thanks Randy but  Juba II doesn't turn blue with a link to the article.  Neither does Cleopatra Selene....only Cleopatra.  Hmmm

maybe put it in quotes  ??? or maybe since cleapatra comes up blue for cleapatra vii, maybe it interfers with it  :-\

It is blue now.  I had to run a program to update links.

Thanks Joe, I think you have to run that program again.

Added two more articles on Lucius Julius Caesar and Quintus Salvius Salvidienus Rufus

Will Numiswiki be able to tell the difference between the three word name Lucius Julius Caesar and the two word name Julius Caesar and the single word name Lucius?

Numiswiki picks the longest possible match first, so those links work.  There is some maximum length but it seems you didn't reach it.

Just wrote another article on Ptolemy of Numidia.  Again links need to be turned on but interestingly it doesn't show up as a new article...  ???
