[edit] Requested move

Marcus Cocceius Nerva → Nerva – The Emperor is universally known as Nerva. And nothing in the disambiguation page is as famous as him.--Panairjdde 13:39, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Year of Birth

Many Wikipedias state, that Nerva was born in 30, and a few say he was born in 35. Which is the correct year of birth? Ludde 15:37, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

From [1]:
"Aurelius Victor records the year as 35 (Caes. 12.11), Dio (68.4.4) as 30. The latter has been more widely accepted."
