• 07:1607:16, 4 March 2024 diff hist +147‎ m Cleopatra ‎ →‎top: Okay, but you could have just moved it to the footnote rather than deleting it altogether.

26 February 2024

• 20:5020:50, 26 February 2024 diff hist +36‎ m History of the Han dynasty ‎ →‎Regency and downfall of the Lü clan: the Han is the name of the dynasty. The imperial family that ruled Han was the Liu clan.
• 20:2420:24, 26 February 2024 diff hist −1‎ m History of the Han dynasty ‎ →‎Reforms and policies: no need for overlapping parentheses here

• 05:5905:59, 25 February 2024 diff hist +401‎ Foreign relations of imperial China ‎ →‎Han dynasty: No. He only made it to the Persian Gulf. He learned about the Roman Empire while in the Persian Gulf of the Parthian Empire, where the Parthians fed him false information about the journey to Rome, apparently deliberately so.
• 05:5405:54, 25 February 2024 diff hist +186‎ Chinese exploration ‎ →‎Sources: adding Crespigny that was just cited in the prose
• 05:5305:53, 25 February 2024 diff hist +514‎ Chinese exploration ‎ →‎Pamir Mountains and beyond: No, he reached the Persian Gulf, but learned an enormous amount of detail about Rome (Daqin) anyway.
• 03:1303:13, 25 February 2024 diff hist −70‎ Chinese exploration ‎ →‎Exchanges: Shen is the source here, and he bases it on primary sources, so this tag is very unnecessary.
• 03:1003:10, 25 February 2024 diff hist +9‎ m Chinese exploration ‎ →‎Indian Ocean and beyond

• 15:4115:41, 24 February 2024 diff hist −22‎ m Science in the ancient world ‎ →‎top: it no longer has multiple issues throughout, though copyediting is certainly a concern still.
• 15:4015:40, 24 February 2024 diff hist −41‎ m Science in the ancient world ‎ →‎top: that claim really only applies to the section on Persia, which is already tagged for lacking citations. That's hardly a damning indictment of the whole article, which is now heavily cited.
• 15:3315:33, 24 February 2024 diff hist +4‎ m Science in the ancient world ‎ →‎top: splitting apart large sentence

• 14:2414:24, 24 February 2024 diff hist +25‎ m History of archaeology ‎ →‎Imperial China: should probably also have this link in the prose

• 13:3213:32, 24 February 2024 diff hist +14‎ m History of archaeology ‎ →‎Imperial China: since others here have their birth and death dates listed
• 13:3013:30, 24 February 2024 diff hist +181‎ History of archaeology ‎ →‎Renaissance Europe: this quote needs to be attributed to Bodnar. Also, adding a fresco pic of Cyriacus.
• 13:2713:27, 24 February 2024 diff hist −151‎ m History of archaeology ‎ →‎Renaissance Europe: why is this citation tag still here? Citations in support of this statement are littered throughout the paragraph that follows. Absurd to keep this here.

• 17:1017:10, 22 February 2024 diff hist +31‎ m Science in the ancient world ‎ →‎Greco-Roman world: instead of linking this twice, link this instead, since it isn't linked at all in the prose, only the lead and in main article links.
