Requested move from Battle of Herdonia (212 BC) to First Battle of Herdonia

The following is a closed discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the proposal was not to move this page

A second battle was fought two years later that is called the Second Battle of Herdonia, also part of the Second Punic War. To be consistent, the word "first" should be added to the title of this battle. Roy Al Blue 19:43, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

Votes

Oppose move. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history#Article title "If disambiguation is needed, add the year in parentheses, for example Battle of Salamis in Cyprus (306 BC). Two battles at the same place in the same year should be called "First", "Second", etc, for example First Battle of Zurich, Second Battle of Zurich." --Philip Baird Shearer 09:14, 14 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

I've removed this page's entry from Wikipedia:Requested moves due to a lack of consensus on the move. If this changes, feel free to add another request.--Lox (t,c) 14:09, 9 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

why in the middle of the article this name had mentioned "Preator Claudius Nero" and it`s didn`t mentioned again in the article or anything about it?! --Abbad Dira (talk) 15:57, 10 April 2010 (UTC).[reply]

Map not really suitable

The map currently in the infobox shows the location neither of Herdonia, nor of any of the places mentioned in the "Strategic situation" section. It's therefore almost completely useless for understanding this article - is there any way a better one could be created or used? --Demiurge1000 (talk) 13:29, 28 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
