Early modern period	VL 2	69	31,300	375,700	C	13,300	104	127	8682	65%	9	38	Ugh, one of those timelines, some outdated sources - 1910 Hazen, 1899 Grosvenor, 1890ish Simpson/Michelet - large unreferenced areas
Reformation	VL 3	79	58,000	697,000	C	12,400	127	98	6674	54%	8	31	National Geographic, New International Dictionary of the Christian Church, 1911 EB, BBC, Eyewitness to History, www.reformation.org, Frey 1918, Remesnyder 1893, Guardian, Rogers BiblioBazaar, Pat 1970, Baird 1891, odd websites, JAMES MADISON. The further reading is way too large.
High Middle Ages	VL 5	43	19,000	235,000	C	6100	24	254	4197	69%	0	4	A whole pile of sources that aren't on the page, a big "timeline" section, and most of the article is unreferenced.
Ancient Rome	VL 3	135	79,000	948,000	C	20,400	275	74	2744	13%	1	8	Too big by at least 5K words - 20,400 words now. Ancient sources all over the place (Livy, Suetonius, Plutarch, Cassius Dio, Josephus, Historia Augusta, ), outdated sources (DURANT???, Smith 1875, 1911 Britanica, Bury 1889, Liddell 1855, Sherman 1917, Tarver 1902, Cary 1967, ), non-academic (or even reliable) publishers (Candle Wick Press??, ), course websites, BBC, Bible Encyclopedias from 1915, Herzog's Protestant Encyclopedia 1858, GIBBON!, self-published (Abbott - BiblioBazaar publisher, etc), Encyclopedia Americana, "Artman, John:"Ancient Rome- Independent Learning Unit", page 26, Good Apple, 1991" (WTF?)
Classical antiquity	VL 4	76	40,000	486,000	C	3300	20	165	2340	71%	1	2	Yet another timeline, too much see-also, and it's totally lacking citations... 18 is way way too few for this size article.
Roman Kingdom	VL 4	69	30,400	365,200	C	3900	47	83	1906	49%	1	1	Ugh, one of those timelines, much of the references are to primary sources, and the rest is to two works - neither of which are by academic in the topic area.
