Talk:Lex Claudia de nave senatoris

[Untitled]

I think that your article is very good. You answer the "who what when where why" questions quite well. The only thing that I could suggest would be to explain why barring large capacity ships hurt the wealthy senators. I would explain what kinds of trade they profited from and why that depended on the ship capacity. Also just as a side note, I noticed that you said Q. Claudius was tribune of the plebs, but then later you say he was the only senator that supported the law. It's probably just a careless mistake, but I would fix that. Otherwise the article is very good.--Andy Jain 01:37, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

I thought that overall the article was solid. However, I have a few suggestions. I think you should remove the Ancient Rome stub because this article is no longer considered "complete", and is thus no longer a stub. Also, I would suggest you internally link important words. First, I do not think you necessarily need to link to 218 BC, but if you want to that should be OK; however, you probably should internally link to Flaminius, Punic War, Senate, Tribune of the Plebs, Roman Republic, Italian peninsula and amphorae, but these are all just suggestions. Also, you should probably use Flaminius' full name because he held the very important position of consul during this time period. Finally, you might want to add in more time references so the reader has a better feel about when these specific events are happening. And also, although this is not a necessity, but you might want to try to organize the article into different sections (origin, history, etc.). Otherwise, I thought the article was good. You did a great job of answering why and how the law came about, and you really addressed the "why significant?" question. However, I think you should note why senators making money was frowned upon (especially when related to trade); maybe elaborate on the trade issue here. Most of these are just minor changes that should be easy to make, and overall I thought the article was good.--Brian Mikolajczyk
