What is this page?[edit]

Having just categorized this page, then changed it to a disambiguation page having seen the banner on this talk page, I looked at the history and see that its purpose and format has changed a few times. I suggest discussing options here and seeking concensus before making any further changes. Derek Andrews (talk) 23:30, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

My initial reaction is that Wikipedia:Broad-concept article would be the correct format to use here, replacing the bullet lists with regular paragraphs and wikilinks. I will check first to see if there are any other articles that already do this under another name. Derek Andrews (talk) 23:35, 26 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Derek Andrews: I like the idea of a WP:BCA rather than a DAB page. I think that would be much more useful to readers. It shouldn't need more than a screen or so to give a broad-brush story of Roman involvement in Africa from the Punic Wars through the establishment of Africa (Roman province) and the acquisition of Egypt (Roman province), to decline and the Vandal and Muslim conquests, leaving little Roman trace but some titular bishoprics.
