#and again it's not terrible or objectively incorrect or anything but it's really not encyclopedic sounding

sat down to write tonight and accidentally spent over an hour trying to clean up Theodora's Wikipedia page
#someone added a bunch of content but it all has major grammar issues#and there's a whole section about Procopius that's basically an essay#which isn't BAD or anything but it's just not the appropriate tone for Wikipedia at all#and so many parts that are like “and Justinian was so ambitious and she SHARED his DREAMS”#and again it's not terrible or objectively incorrect or anything but it's really not encyclopedic sounding#anyway I added a needs-copy-edit notice and tried to fix some stuff up myself#so if anyone has spare time please go edit the Theodora (Wife of Justinian I) article#I also tried to fix her sister Comito's article while I was at it because it had so much irrelevant Procopius information again#half of it was just a debate about whether the Secret History is reliable and it's like okay but who was Comito??? what's her role in this#why is it on HER ARTICLE#go write it on Procopius's page!!!#anyway
