Prose Suggestions

[edit]

Please note that all of these are suggestions, and can be implemented or ignored at your discretion.

  • Flavius Arinthaeus (died AD 378) was a Roman soldier suggest:
    Flavius Arinthaeus (died AD 378) was a Roman officer
Done.
  • He was one of the clique of senior officers who elected Jovian to the throne, and may have played a similar role in the election of Valentinian. suggest:
    He was part of a faction of senior officers who elected Jovian to the throne, and may have played a similar role in the election of Valentinian.
Not done. It wasn't a faction. Happy to change "clique", but I can't think of an alternate, accurate word or phrase.
  • He died in 378 while occupying one of the two most senior military positions of the Eastern Roman Empire. suggest:
    He died in 378 while serving as Magister peditum, one of the two most senior military positions of the Eastern Roman Empire.
  • where Arinthaeus was instrumental in securing a victory against the enemy in difficult circumstances are said difficulties known, or do sources merely state that it was difficult?
Just that they were difficult. Unfortunately.
  • He was wounded in a minor skirmish and died suggest:
    Julian was wounded in a minor skirmish and died
Done.
  • Valens accused Traianus of cowardice, but thanks to the support of the Magistri Militum Arinthaeus and Magister Equitum Victor suggest:
    Valens accused Traianus of cowardice, but thanks to the support of Arinthaeus and the Magister Equitum Victor
Done.
@Iazyges: You have a good eye for my poor phraseology. Thank you. Tetricus, of course. Gog the Mild (talk) 20:17, 29 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
