 * Keep -- This is more than a mere dictionary definition. It may be a summary of a single academic article,  but that is not a reason for deletion, but for improvement.  Peterkingiron (talk) 13:54, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
 * And what do you suggest it be improved with? Calling a thing "notable" doesn't make it so. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 00:10, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Keep —— clearly a notable topic, well sourced from un-impeachable sources. Like any other article, it can be improved. XavierItzm (talk) 06:41, 22 May 2022 (UTC)


 * Keep. The sources are there: Condemned to Mine Copper (Biblical Archaeology Society), Condemnation to the Mines in the Later Roman Empire (JStor paper), pages 200-203 of Prison, Punishment and Penance in Late Antiquity. You just have to dig it out. Clarityfiend (talk) 22:32, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Also Condemnation to Hard Labour in the Roman Empire, From the Julio-Claudians to Constantine. Clarityfiend (talk) 09:00, 27 May 2022 (UTC)


 * Keep per Clarityfiend. StAnselm (talk) 00:38, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
