23:1623:16, 20 November 2024 diff hist +3 m Roman dodecahedron →Purpose: series of possibilities missing the conjunction before the last current

16:0516:05, 18 November 2024 diff hist +214 Venus Verticordia →Sources: got my hands on this finally, so add current

13:1113:11, 9 November 2024 diff hist +4 Pompoir →top: dating the image
13:1113:11, 9 November 2024 diff hist +25 Pompoir this statement does not seem to be supported in the article, and if the technique requires only internal movement, it seems the position wouldn't matter; the legend of Wallis Simpson's "Shanghai grip" is in the news owing to Paul French's book

15:2315:23, 2 November 2024 diff hist +14 Slavery in ancient Rome not vandalism, but overly specific and not necessary in the already long intro; gladiators are an atypical case as examples of status, since being sent to the ludus was considered a punishment and the opposite of "skill" (which is what this sentence is about), and the best might well be free men; musicians aren't even discussed in the article; so how about a link to the section instead?

02:3202:32, 1 November 2024 diff hist −15 Venus Obsequens →The epithet obsequens: oops (when not to edit with a blinding headache) current

13:1113:11, 29 October 2024 diff hist −71 History of books →Book production in Rome: taming the one unsupported statement, but the rest of the section is also without citations; also, there were multiple libraries in Rome by the time of Julius Caesar, and while that's a great tidbit from Mary Beard in the NYT, there are many more and better sources for libraries in Rome
13:0013:00, 29 October 2024 diff hist +316 Venus Obsequens →Temple founding and obsequens: image

22:0922:09, 27 October 2024 diff hist +256 Venus Verticordia →Sources: add
18:4418:44, 27 October 2024 diff hist +4 Ennia Thrasylla →Family background: minor style current
18:4318:43, 27 October 2024 diff hist −63 Chariot racing →Byzantine racing factions: I think I get the gist of the second sentence added, but I don't understand what the tagged sentence is saying about Christian hegemony, as it doesn't seem to match the source and is off-topic as presented here; there's an incident on p. 397 involving Justinian at the Hippodrome, but the author says factions might promote "foci of loyalty", and I see no generalization in the source at this point that aligns with this statement

12:1512:15, 25 October 2024 diff hist +54 User:Cynwolfe/Favor libertatis minor current
11:1311:13, 25 October 2024 diff hist 0 User:Cynwolfe/sandbox →Manumissio testamento: lk current
10:5810:58, 25 October 2024 diff hist −16 User:Cynwolfe/sandbox →The familia and social position: really need to launch this article someday
08:5208:52, 25 October 2024 diff hist −16 Shoney's →Menu: Cites third-party sources and simply lists what the menu items are, without subjective adjectives but with a neutral term for the type of food, and describes the type of restaurant; not seeing how this is promotional or how the info could be stated more neutrally, and the tagger left no discussion on talk current
08:4008:40, 25 October 2024 diff hist −4 Talk:Big Boy Restaurants →top: seems far more developed than a start class; I found much more extensive info and sourcing than I expected, and it might be a B, if I felt comfortable rating in this topic area current
