Why isn't this page at Ptolemy II Philadelphus, as the intro would suggest?

(Note that the Seleucids are Seleucus I Nicator. and so on.) Wikipedia:naming conventions does not forbid either, by its own wording. Septentrionalis!

I fully agree. "Ptolemy"=Egypt, anyway, so it's completely redundant. john k 19:07, 10 September 2005 (UTC)

In carrying out this program, I find that Cleopatra's son is at Ptolemy Philadelphus, but half the inbound links are intended to head here; and presumably there will be more, as more public-domain text is wikified. I propose to solve this by making Ptolemy Philadelphus a redirect here, after moving that article to a suitably disambiguated location. Please discuss this at Talk:Ptolemy Philadelphus.
