Needs more refs Suggestion[edit]

This article relies heavily on the a single work (Forsyth's) which is idiosyncratic in several viewpoints. It could use other sources, e.g., Cornell, Lintott. - Eponymous-Archon (talk) 02:57, 13 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Re recent reverts[edit]

I reverted some edits from an IP. This was for the following reasons.

The paragraph with the incipit "Modern scholars" interjected into the Traditional account section is both duplication of the same paragraph I wrote later in Re-evaluation but also was done so without citing sources.
Some paragraphs were written which were wholly unsourced while overwriting sourced material. The new version also was wrong: there were never two consular tribunes elected.

I also added some stuff from Lomas' 2018 book, which provides a decent handling of the topic from a modern perspective. Ifly6 (talk) 15:47, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
