Military campaigns > Diaspora revolt, par. 1, 1st sentence

I have made a small stylistic edit in order to add a time reference to the first sentence, so that a reader who turns immediately (as I did just now) to "Diaspora revolt" (fourth subsection of "Military campaigns") does not need to scroll up to find the period of time to which the opening words "Shortly afterward" referred.

Adoptive children (Paulina)

Paulina (Hadrian's sister), is attested (within multiple articles) to have been raised by Trajan (along with Hadrian), so should she also be listed under "adoptive children"? If not, why? -- Flyingtyop8 | Talk 21:44, January 28, 2024 (UTC)

:She would probably be regarded as a foster child as he did not legaly adopt her.★Trekker (talk) 01:49, 4 March 2025 (UTC)

Greek Elites

A substantial percentage of this article focuses on the place of Greek notables in the Roman Empire. While this material is interesting, the length and focus serve to distract from Trajan himself. I suggest summarizing this material here and either adding it to a more relevant article or creating an entirely new article. RobotBoy66 (talk) 02:24, 6 March 2025 (UTC)

:You have a point. Is there any article that would be fit to move it to? If not what would a new article be named?★Trekker (talk) 22:10, 7 March 2025 (UTC)
