I'm amazed that when there are three well-written books by experts & published in the last few decades on the Year of the Four Emperors, not one has been even mentioned in this article. Then again, none of them are mentioned in the articles on Galba, Otho, or Vitellius either. I shake my head sadly. These books are:
I'd hope that someone at least looks at these books before submitting any article related to this period of Roman History as either a G.A. or F.A. -- llywrch ( talk) 19:05, 28 September 2016 (UTC)

After having written Appius Annius Gallus, I'm surprised to find this article that claims the general Annius Gallus was consul in 108, instead of the consul of 67. I suspect this is in error: there is ample evidence that Vespasian rewarded his supporters promptly, & to have ignored the contributions of Gallus his entire life & leave them to another man to reward Gallus with a consulship almost 40 years later does not make any sense. I'd remove all of this misplaced information now, but I'd like to verify whether a reliable source made this shaky identification. -- llywrch ( talk) 20:07, 6 October 2017 (UTC)
