Juthungi instead of Alamanni[edit]

Pat Southern confirms (The Roman Empire from Severus to Constantine, p.209) that Juthungi were merged to Alamanni towards the end of the 3rd century. Therefore this invasion (and the subsequent battles at Fano and Pavia could not be considered a part of the Alamannic wars. A. Watson and D.S.Potter make no mention of Alamanni as well. therefore, I removed all references to Alamanni, in the articles and templates related to this invasion.--Dipa1965 (talk) 12:48, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Copy-editing needed[edit]

Myself not being a native english speaker, I am asking for this due to my attempts in paraphrasing the available secondary sources. Any help will be appreciated.--Dipa1965 (talk) 14:15, 16 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
