Flavius Anastasius (Roman Consul) → Flavius Anastasius Paulus Probus Sabinianus Pompeius — Yes. The name is long but the current name is inappropriate, given Flavius Anastasius is also the name of the emperor Anastasius I who was a three time consul themselves. I welcome any other naming suggestions that the community might have. —Labattblueboy (talk) 19:00, 14 January 2010 (UTC)
- I think this misses the point of disambiguation. We are never going to call the Emperor Anastasius Flavius Anastasius, because sources are unlikely to; so there is no real conflict. If I read his article correctly, he was not consul before he was emperor - so no source is likely to refer to him as Consul (any more than they are likely to call him perpetual tribune or pater patriae).

- Please take notice that the link Flavius Anastasius actually redirects to the emperor to there is an issue. Secondly, I'm working with WP:COMMONNAME and for often than not Flavius Anastasius gets attached to the emperor. All the source for the consul use the full name, which I dislike because it long, it is however better than the current arrangement. Would you have another naming suggestion, I'll all ears.--Labattblueboy (talk) 02:57, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
- I think that redirect was unwise (however it came to be); observe that the only link to Flavius Anastasius is from this talk page. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 19:13, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
- A look thought Anastasius shows a large number of people sharing the name. This is just an endeavour to utilize text instead of a qualified to disambiguate.--Labattblueboy (talk) 21:53, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
