Historian7, would you allow another day or two to review this article? It is quite extensive and I want time to review it properly. Thanks, -- ¿3fam ily6 contribs 17:17, 20 November 2014 (UTC)
Per these discussions, Talk:Women in ancient Rome/GA1#Comment and Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Classical Greece and Rome#GA reviews of Women in ancient Rome and Languages of the Roman Empire, Historian7 is now inactive. I will leave this review up for seven days from today, during which any editor can feel free to address the issues I've highlighted. If no one responds, I regretfully will have to fail this nomination. A shame, since it is a high quality article.-- ¿3fam ily6 contribs 18:48, 22 November 2014 (UTC)
I think the reasons for this edition are inadequate. I respect the knowledge of the editor but his subjective impression about a possible plagiarism (that I explicitly deny because I wrote this section) is not a valid argument. I only used information available in wikipedia (specific articles of the languages contain the information about the time and location of each language), so my section is only a re-writing of the alredy available information, no new information was added, only compiled in a convenient way, -- Davius ( talk) 18:32, 3 January 2016 (UTC)
I have a concern about the neutrality of this article. It attempts to promote the misconception that Latin was almost exclusively the dominant language of the Empire which is, at best misleading.
Please see Talk:Roman_Empire#"Languages" problem for details of the concern.

I read somewhere that in the Late Empire, Rome itself was a Greek-speaking city surrounded by a Latin-speaking countryside. It was later that Latin recovered the city. Could you reference it and add it to the article?
Besides there was a Greek-speaking neighborhood in Rome (near Cosmedin)? -- Error ( talk) 11:50, 7 October 2017 (UTC)
I think Arabic, or dialects of it were spoken in the south of the Levant, as it was the place of Arabic people of Petra!
Hello
I'm reviewing the latest scholarship, particularly the ones about Latin and Greek and which I also believe better aligns and strengthens with this article. If people want to join the discussion about the propose rewrite, refer here: Talk:Roman Empire#Languages
