Oh my... that statue is from 1696. It is not Roman... How unseemly! -- Pichote (talk) 21:25, 22 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Whatever, the subject is Julius Ceasar the most famous Roman of all times. More than worthy. Flamarande (talk) 22:07, 22 January 2008 (UTC)Reply
...as cultural depiction of Julius Caesar, you mean. Pichote (talk) 20:48, 14 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

I added a section to this template on the Latin language. I think it would be a good idea to do away with the ages of Latin template and apply this one to all the Latin pages since it's a good way to consolidate information - have a single template for all the roman articles? Thoughts? - Christopher (talk) 23:55, 26 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Should Tetrarchy be added under extraordinary magistrates? 72.40.104.171 (talk) 15:57, 21 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Julius Caesar statue image replacement edit

I changed the picture of the statue of Julius Caesar by Nicolas Coustou to a picture of the Augustus of Prima Porta statue. The Julius Caesar statue was anachronistic with Ancient Rome and misleading. I tried to substitute another statue of a Caesar for the sake of consistency. Having the image with a white background looked very good and I looked for another such image, but did not find one in the Commons. AmateurEditor (talk) 22:39, 5 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

I've changed the image to one with a white background for aesthetic reasons. AmateurEditor (talk) 18:33, 8 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
Icons should not be added only because they look good, because aesthetics are in the eye of the beholder: one reader's harmless decoration may be another reader's distraction Gnevin (talk) 20:59, 9 June 2010 (UTC)Reply

Semi-protected edit request on 6 September 2018 edit

79.167.155.160 (talk) 20:16, 6 September 2018 (UTC) I suggest you to add Thessaloniki as one of the largest cities of the Roman EmpireReply
Can you list any reliable sources that support your idea? —AE (talkcontributions) 14:18, 17 September 2018 (UTC)Reply
  Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Hhkohh (talk) 15:29, 22 September 2018 (UTC)Reply

Servius edit

Done. Thank you for letting us know about the error! P Aculeius (talk) 14:08, 3 December 2019 (UTC)Reply

Adding List of Quaestors under Lists edit

Hey! I am kinda new to editing stuff here on the wiki and how to edit Templates such as this one seems kinda scary. So i am wondering if someone could do me the favor of adding "List of Roman Quaestors" under the section "Lists" as it feels like that list would now fit there unless im confused about how this template is supposed to work. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Roman_quaestors

Done. And also added the List of Roman praetors (moved that from incorrect capitalization). Not sure if these lists are particularly useful compared with the consuls or dictators, but that's a discussion for another time, and adding them to the template seems harmless enough.
