Conditional support. Overall a good effort, but needs a source/citation for the following statement towards the top of the article: "There is some evidence that there was a small number of women fighting amongst the auxilia as well. This was in contrast to the legions, which admitted Roman citizens only."

Comment needs a lot of MOS cleanups - date ranges need ndash instead of hyphen. I have done some of these. Secondly, the citations that are repeated need to be grouped together with a b c d etc, whereas at the moment, many are just repeated printed out in full multiple times. Also why is it using BC/AD, and with they have to be used consistently. In some places they are omitted and in other places there are spaces after the number and/or after the ca. but in other places there are not. Blnguyen ( bananabucket) 04:08, 8 July 2008 (UTC) reply
I believe either may be used. Frankly, I think BCE and CE are politically correct nonsense and everyone I know (Christian or otherwise) has never had any problem using the traditional forms, which are easier to pronounce and distinguish. EraNavigator ( talk) 16:42, 8 July 2008 (UTC) reply
Support Good interesting piece but it does need a MoS copy-edit and a spruce-up by a prose pro before it goes anywhere near FAC. -- ROGER DAVIES talk 09:00, 10 July 2008 (UTC) reply
