`  ==Page split== Another issue: this page currently has a major temporal bias towards more recent events. This is in part because we have a whole separate series of articles for the Ancient Rome-section events, including Ancient Rome and Roman Kingdom and Roman Republic and Roman Empire, yet we don't have even one daughter article for anything that came after that! As a result, we currently cover the whole of pre-Medieval Roman history in less than 8 pages, even though it spans almost 1400 years! Meanwhile, we devote almost 10 pages to Medieval Rome, despite this time period covering less than 800 years, much of it on relatively minor or brief events, followed by over 8 pages devoted to the mere 600 years of ``modern`` Roman history. The first thing we should do, in my view, is create a Medieval Rome (or Rome in the Middle Ages, perhaps?) article and summarize that article here in the same way we've summarized the Ancient Rome series of articles already. We should then consider summarizing (and clarifying) all the sections even more by expanding on and improving their daughter articles; there's a terrible lack of cooperation between this article and many of the other Roman-history articles currently! (For example, there's lots of necessary information presented here that's totally ignored in the Ancient Rome articles, and vice versa.) By creating one or two more daughter articles and being more efficient with our space usage (which removing the timeline(s) would help a lot with, incidentally...), we can very easily trim this overwhelmingly bloated article (it's at 75kb currently) into a trim, sleek, and reader-friendly introduction to the city's history, while providing numerous articles for more in-depth explorations of every time period. As we should, for a topic as important and hugely-spanning as this one. - `
