- 22:5122:51, 18 June 2024 diff hist −261 Roman Empire →top: You're citing the talk page discussion of another Wikipedia article? What? Meanwhile, this article does provide a citation for the empire reaching it's greatest extent under Trajan with Bennett (1997). The claim makes sense as well. Trajan invaded the Parthian Empire as far as the Persian Gulf where modern day Kuwait exists. There is no source in this article that refutes Bennett's claim.

10 May 2024
- 18:2218:22, 10 May 2024 diff hist +48 m Science in the ancient world →China and East Asia: and why exactly was this removed? It is a useful infobox pertinent to this section. There's really no justification for its removal other than WP:I don't like it.
- 18:2118:21, 10 May 2024 diff hist −41 m Science in the ancient world →Inventions: The new organization into subsections is okay, though you removed a much needed citation for the last statement here, which should be restored. However, this is the most puzzling addition. Primary sources? What? Literally nothing here is a primary source. It is all secondary sources from the mid-20th century onward (i.e. Needham). Please familiarize yourself with the basic definition of a primary source before editing Wikipedia.

- 00:0300:03, 9 May 2024 diff hist +29 m The Equalizer 3 →top: links are important. Not sure why these are excluded from the lead section, even if they appear once in the body of the article at random spots.

- 19:3119:31, 19 April 2024 diff hist +954 Elisabeth Kübler-Ross →Legacy and contributions: citing another article, this time about five stages, reorganizing subsection a bit, rewriting some parts a bit.
- 19:0019:00, 19 April 2024 diff hist −1 m Elisabeth Kübler-Ross →Legacy and contributions: punctuation unnecessary
- 18:5218:52, 19 April 2024 diff hist +34 m Elisabeth Kübler-Ross →Legacy and contributions: shame this doesn't have its own article, but this link covers it for now.
- 18:5118:51, 19 April 2024 diff hist +867 Elisabeth Kübler-Ross This whole article needs serious work, but in the meantime it simply needs better organization instead of this haphazard jumble of sections. Expanding contributions section to make it into a legacy section as well, which makes more sense and is in line with most biographies on Wikipedia.

- 22:1122:11, 1 April 2024 diff hist −481 Song dynasty Undid revision 1216771068 by JusticiarH (talk) Not disagreeable information, but you introduced an unnecessary sentence fragment and citation error in a clearly sloppy attempt to simply copy and paste an extract from another Wikipedia article word for word. Doing that verbatim is not allowed. This is also tangential in the lead section, belongs more to the main prose body where info can be more detailed. Tags: Undo Reverted

25 February 2024
- 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.

- 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
