[edit] Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. However, please do not use unreliable sources such as blogs, your own website, websites and publications with a poor reputation for checking the facts or with no editorial oversight, expressing views that are widely acknowledged as extremist, that are promotional in nature, or that rely heavily on rumors and personal opinions, as one of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable through reliable sources, preferably using inline citations.

- Thank you for the guidance!
- I understand that I made an error with my first edit: ePedia is not a source, so I should not have used it as a source for the statement "Trajan took to the field again and after building with the design of Apollodorus of Damascus his massive bridge over the Danube, he conquered part of Dacia in 106 (see also Second Dacian War)."
- But for my 2nd edit I dod not make any errors: I did not use ePedia as a source, but Historia, a well-known website and physical magazine: https://historia.ro/sectiune/general/cele-doua-expeditii-ale-ultimului-razboi-567304.html The information I edited was "During the following winter, King Decebalus launched a counter-attack across the Danube further downstream, but this was repulsed. Trajan's army advanced further into Dacian territory and forced King Decebalus to submit to him a year later", which is incorrect. Decebalus took his own life, he didn't submit to Trajan. Here is a link to an 8th grade textbook from the Ministry of Education's website: https://manuale.edu.ro/manuale/Clasa%20a%20VIII-a/Istorie/Uy5DLiBDLkQuIFBSRVNT/book.html?book#34 This should be a reliable enough source; on page 34, section "Al doilea război (105-106 d.Hr.)" the last 2 sentences are: "Decebal a încercat să scape dintr-un asediu, însă a fost urmărit și încercuit. Pentru a nu fi luat prizonier, s-a sinucis” ["Decebal tried to escape from a siege, but was pursued and surrounded. To avoid being taken prisoner, he commited suicide].
