No evidence of WP:NOTABILITY by coverage in third-party source; not even a website for this group is mentioned, hence possibly even WP:HOAX. Constantine ✍ 21:18, 13 August 2018 (UTC) this is a Facebook group without wider significance as yet. Constantine ✍ 11:22, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
This is an article about a group of young linguistic scholars who live around the world, since their website is currently under construction, as is their kick starter campaign, the only remaining third party source is a Facebook page made by a fan. I have also added more sources discussing the subject of the evolution of the latin language to modern ecclesiastic latin, a subject that I feel is inadequately covered by this, or any other encyclopedia. I have also removed Rome 2.0 from the list of claimant nations or micro-nations, instead classifying it as a mainly academic phenomenon. Much of the accusation levied against this article is based on personal opinion and standards; specifically, use of the word "preposterous," to describe the legitimacy of a student-run organization.

Again, despite the diminutive Facebook group, the fact that this organization has an entirely fan-run and unaffiliated (though they call themselves "official") Facebook group shows that Rome 2.0 has notoriety outside of its circle, to garner a steadily growing base of support. The student group behind Rome 2.0 are currently receiving attention from local reporters affiliated with the Harvard Crimson and the Register Forum. User talk:Modernantiguehistory

- Delete per nom; the statement by the page's creator Modernantiquehistory confirms this is not currently a notable organization. power~enwiki (π, ν) 00:24, 14 August 2018 (UTC)
