Delete. The article contains nothing that isn't in the other article, and there is no explanation for the surname "Magnus", which as far as I can tell doesn't occur in any source readers are likely to have consulted, and so isn't a likely search term. Since the article has never cited any sources, and I can't find this form of the subject's name in likely reference works or in epigraphy, it's impossible to determine where "Magnus" comes from—and so I don't see it helping anyone locate or distinguish this particular Sulla. If any evidence for this surname is discovered, this could be re-created as a redirect.

Delete Even if it could be proved this person was not the same as the consul of 33, what claim of notability does he have? Note: Roman Senators were not elected officials; they were individuals whose wealth entitled them to be one of 600 members of the Roman Senate. Most could be described as "non-entities" (with a tip of the hat to Ronald Syme, who sometimes applies that adjective to Senators who are not proconsuls, consuls, or appointed to imperial offices). --
