Talk:Rome

Infobox images alignment
Dear all,

I have replaced the old lead image with a superior panorama picture which not only features all aspects of the old image, but also includes a wider POV I have put the Colosseum, the most recognisable monument in Rome in the 2nd row, whilst also grouping it with the Emmanuel monument. This is because having two images of similar aspect ratios results in an equal division of the rowspan. Consequently, I put the row with the 3 images together in the 3rd row.

If anyone has any suggestions, dissents, and more, then please feel free to reply Becausewhynothuh? (talk) 08:30, 28 August 2023 (UTC)


 * @Becausewhynothuh? . The current order of photos is more intuitive and aesthetically pleasing, and the top image of the photo montage has better framing, lighting, and resolution than the alternatively proposed image. Chronus (talk) 08:32, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Aesthetically pleasing???
 * Based on what exactly? and how exactly is it intuitive when you insist on reverting edits which would place two same aspect ratio images together? Becausewhynothuh? (talk) 08:35, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
 * intuitive and aesthetically pleasing are so subjective as to mean nothing. Kindly provide more objective reasons.
 * I disagree with your point that the top image had better framing when in fact the new one shows not just the aspects of the old image, but additional parts of the city, with a hint of greenery as icing on the cake. better resolution is yet another point that I disagree with, as they are both high quality images, with little noise and high sharpness. lighting is subjective since the old picture clearly uses a filter, whilst the new one is a natural lighting daytime image. Furthermore, the aforementioned panorama nature of the new lead image automatically puts it at an advantage as far more of the city is shown, which is a key aspect of such lead images Becausewhynothuh?

History section
There seem to be large parts of the history section which pertain to the Roman Empire as a whole, rather than just Rome as a city. This part probably needs a rewrite. &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 09:00, 8 September 2023 (UTC)

Please restore the previous arrangement by reverting this edit: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:MobileDiff/1196605274. The previous intro was better (the previous first sentence was clear and concise), the current one is long and incoherent (see the current second sentence; no verb, no subject).2A01:E11:17:40B0:E5EF:790B:F21C:C5A9 (talk) 16:04, 23 January 2024 (UTC)
