[edit]

I think that an image would prove very beneficial for viewers to understand what this track may have looked like. There were also a few writing errors which should be fixed: the 1st sentence of the 3rd paragraph is repetitive (says "not" twice), Antoninus Pius is spelled incorrectly, and the last sentence of the 3rd paragraph really makes no sense to me (I really have no idea what you are refering to). The content for seems good, though maybe you could expand on your fourth paragraph about the temple of Apollo. -Alice Magill

The information you provide is rather basic and does not go in depth on things such as what a circus entails in the area. Also saying a loop-shaped area does not really indicate a purpose and needs to be elaborated upon. The 4th paragraph concerning gods definitely needs to be expanded upon, such as who erected the temple, what were these various other gods, why they existed in the first place, etc. The content concerning chariot races seems irrelevant if no one really knows for sure, unless it is widely believed that they did hold chariot races here. If so, a "contrary to popular belief" or something of the like would be helpful. A picture would also be helpful. -Kevin Carey

I agree with the corrections mentioned above. As for content, you could use some more information as to generally what the purpose of the building was, and it would be helpful if you gave a more detailed description of its structure and layout. You should also definitely give more information on the temple and its history. It might help out to add in section headings once you get some more info to organize the article. -Peter Moore
