Talk:Disease in Imperial Rome

Untitled edit

The Antonine Plague section appears to be wrong in its estimates. It states 2/3 of the Roman population was wiped out by plague, but the estimate I see in the provided source is 25-33%. Am I missing something? SolidInk (talk) 08:59, 18 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

Problem with Style or failure to quote (plagiarism) edit

The section “Relevant Study” mentions “our study”. If this section was written by the study’s author, this language would merely be inappropriate. (Wikipedia is “us”, and Wikipedia did not conduct or sponsor this study.) If not, then this apparently reflects a failure to mark verbatim copying from the source without quotation marks and should be rewritten. Jmacwiki (talk) 15:01, 15 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
