Rename[edit]

@Avilich and T8612: Should this page be renamed to something like Gaius Scribonius Curio (tribune 50 BC)? (I presume we don't use the tr pl abbreviation.) Ifly6 (talk) 17:13, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I suppose yes, moreover the title doesn't really make sense while in the lede it is said that "He was a friend to Pompey, Julius Caesar, Mark Antony, Clodius and Cicero"... T8612 (talk) 19:31, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sometime ago I noved the page to 'tribune 50 BC' but then changed my mind since the present one sounds more natural and reader-friendly, but feel free to switch it back. Avilich (talk) 21:05, 25 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Move completed. Ifly6 (talk) 17:25, 29 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Memmia, wife[edit]

I removed a claim about Curio having married some Memmia before marrying Fulvia. This claim isn't corroborated by DPRR and is probably a confusion with his father. Curio's homonymous father married a woman named Memmia to bear this Curio. Ifly6 (talk) 15:26, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
