Talk:Attila

" In 441 by an invasion of the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire, the success of which emboldened Attila to invade the West."

Sorry--I wasn't able to get in to fix this. I think it should read: "In 441, Attila's forces invaded the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire, and his success emboldened him to invade the West." Meerkat77 (talk) 02:41, 12 September 2023 (UTC)

I agree with Richard Keatinge and AirshipJungleman29 that the gallery should be removed - it's just a bunch of much later imaginings of what Attila looked like. It doesn't really have much to do with the subject. Some of the images belong on a page on Hungarian nationalism, perhaps.--Ermenrich (talk) 14:34, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

'In The West' paragraph 5, the starting sentence "On April 7, he captured Metz he also captured Strasbourg." should have a transition word and/or possibly a comma dividing 'Metz' and 'he'. MrChezzo (talk) 03:16, 13 January 2025 (UTC)

In the section on Attila's death, there's a line that, due to being in its own paragraph, could give the impression of attempting to appear somewhat dramatic. That's not the goal of Wikipedia, so if anyone else agrees with me, I'd like to request that it be changed.

Thank you. ~2025-31249-94 (talk) 18:49, 5 November 2025 (UTC)

See WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. If someone types "Attila" into WP, it's likely it's this guy they're after, and if it's not, there are links they can follow. Compare George Washington or Jesus. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 15:44, 8 April 2026 (UTC)

• Oppose: I agree with the above: this is likely the primary topic, given that it is both the origin of most other uses, and probably far more familiar than any of the others. The disambiguation pages receive very few views, suggesting that there's not a lot of confusion with other uses. Despite the undeniable idiomacity of "Attila the Hun", "Attila" is the more encyclopedic title, IMO. P Aculeius (talk) 12:16, 10 April 2026 (UTC)

• Oppose: I agree with P Aculeius. While Attila the Hun might be more descriptive, it appears to be unnecessary. Most people look for the current article rather than anything else see traffic, justifying the current article as primary topic. A.Cython(talk) 12:38, 10 April 2026 (UTC)

• Oppose: Talking about somebody is always defined by the context, historically there are no more Attila, unique. The lead has already this extra "Attila the Hun" name. Today many people use the name of Attila, especially in Hungary is quite common.OrionNimrod (talk) 12:48, 10 April 2026 (UTC)
