Why tons of stuff about the Republic

[edit]

This is an article about the constitutional reforms of Augustus, is it not? Why is half the article not about those reforms, but rather, about the constitutional reforms undertaken in the periods before Sulla, during Sulla, Caesar's dictatorship, and the Second Triumvirate? This really ought be streamlined and not have constantly duplicated articles over and over again. Ifly6 (talk) 03:46, 19 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with this. Furthermore, the details of Augustus' reforms are actually given in more on the main page for Augustus. Either the main page needs to be edited down to a brief summary (covering his Maius Imperium, Tribunician Power, the meaning of titles Augustus and Princeps and an explanation of why he exercised power this way) or, and this is my preference, this page should be deleted. There is a page for the Roman constitution generally, the constitution of the Kingdom, Republic and Empire and this page just for Augustus' reforms. It's silly and decentralises information in a way that probably makes it unwieldy for anybody who hasn't studied the period. Wagrid (talk) 17:31, 11 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
