Moving this page

[edit]

Shouldn't this page be on Veni, Vidi, Vici, with uppercase V's? I've searched a bit, and everywhere I found anything about it that was not a forum or anything, it was with uppercase V's. Even the first 3 words of the article are with uppercase V's.User:? (talk) 20:21, 9 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

That's a reasonable comment. Feel free to request a move if you feel strongly about it! --Slasher (talk) 15:34, 26 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Actually the question of cases is irrelevant, since in Caesar's time there was no lower case, nor was there punctuation. Gaius Iulius would have written VENI VIDI VICI — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.169.129.252 (talk) 18:39, 9 July 2014 (UTC) π°1.33333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333333[reply]

Veni Vidi Vici is the coolest phrase ever. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:d:1800:1a3d:21d:4fff:feff:480 (talkcontribs) 07:31, 25 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Patent? Copyright? Trademark?

[edit]

I removed the folowing sentense:

In 2012, the rights of using the phrase "Veni, Vidi, Vici" has been patented by the municipality of Zile in the northern province of Tokat.[1][2]

The referenced article calls it eather a patent or a copyright. Either of which is nonsense - if anything it is a trademark, and that would not make that much sense either. So being nonsense, I removed it from the article. Thue (talk) 16:52, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A humorous variation on the speech was the caption of a cartoon where a young woman is shown coming home from a date and tells her roommate, "Vidi, vici, veni." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.169.129.252 (talk) 18:37, 9 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, a village in Turkey has no valid reason to patent it. I feel this is very reasonable. Kai2004 (talk) 05:06, 19 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
