¶ I made a very slight change in phrasing the reason for her suicide, as it originally seemed ambiguous, as if she had died while actually engaged in wrestling hand-to-hand with Octavian. Sussmanbern (talk) 05:01, 17 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Prose Suggestions

Please note that all of these are suggestions, and can be implemented or ignored at your discretion.

  • occurred on either the 10 or 12 August 30 BC in I believe the the should be removed, as 10 or 12 August makes more sense unless it is changed to 10th or 12th.
  • while Aidan Dodson and Dyan Hitlon are more tepid by stating it was circa 12 August. suggest while Aidan Dodson and Dyan Hitlon state it was c. 12 August.
  • Charmion adjusting her diademed crown before she herself fell suggest Charmion adjusting Cleopatra's diademed crown before she herself fell

Pericles' comments

@Iazyges: has the review started? I can't tell. Is there something I should do right away? I guess it's good to know that there are no dead links or missing citations. Pericles of AthensTalk 13:50, 8 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Rename?

Should this be moved to Death of Cleopatra VII to be in line with the articles on her early life, reign? T.Shafee(Evo&Evo)talk 12:44, 10 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That's a good question! Some editors/GA reviewers have argued that the articles Early life of Cleopatra VII and Reign of Cleopatra VII should be moved to "Early life of Cleopatra" and "Reign of Cleopatra", respectively, to conform with the naming style of Death of Cleopatra and the main article Cleopatra. Any editor can be bold and move the articles as they wish, but we haven't yet formed a clear consensus for renaming the articles in any of our talk page discussions. I think we'd have better luck garnering attention for this issue at the talk page for the main article. Pericles of AthensTalk 13:50, 10 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]
