A fact from Domus Aurea (Antioch) appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 30 September 2011 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
The domed roof, which was made of wood,[5] is a strange statement. It would be either a pitched roof made of wood, or a wooden roof protecting a masonry dome of some sort. I looked at the article that was cited but failed to find the reference. Amandajm (talk) 13:45, 30 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Page 89 of ref 5 has "in 526 it (the Great Church) was shaken by the first of the sixth-century earthquakes in Antioch and subsequently destroyed by fire, but by 537-538 it had been rebuilt and re-dedicated, the dome being constructed of cyprus trees from Daphne (unlike Haghia Sophia, but like most Syrian churches and, indeed, the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem, the great church at Antioch clearly had a wooden dome)".

AD This article makes a common mistake. The author keeps writing, for example, 526 AD, when it should be AD 526. The initials stand for Anno Domini, in the year of our Lord. This phrase would precede the numerical date. Who will change this? L. Thomas W. (talk) 14:04, 30 September 2011 (UTC) L. Thomas W.[reply]
According to WO:MOSNUM, AD can be placed either before or after the number. Mikenorton (talk) 14:12, 30 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
WP:ERA recommends against using AD or CE unless the year would be ambiguous without it, so I've removed it.--Cúchullaint/c 14:34, 30 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
