  • TonyTheTiger, these reviews still need to be completed (I don't see any icons yet, and many review facets are not yet covered), especially since you've already used one of these as a QPQ for a nomination that has been promoted to the main page. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 05:24, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Sorry for the long delay. I have made mention of both Sanur and the Jarrar clan in the throne villages article. --Al Ameer (talk) 22:37, 2 May 2014 (UTC)
  • You have fixed the first ref I had a problem with. Now the second one I looked at (2) gave no indication it was in a foreign language. Fix all footnotes to indicate foreign language sources (This is English Wikipedia).--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 22:00, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
  • The second ref you mentioned points to page 106, which is written in both English and Arabic (it's just a population table). Anyway, I added the Arabic icon to the citation. --Al Ameer (talk) 01:38, 16 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Throne village has several claims backed up by online refs. The first one I checked (3a) did not match the source. (only one dozen not two).--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 10:51, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Ref 24 was the wrong url (it was for Tulkarm Governorate), I replaced it with the correct url for Jenin Governorate. As for the throne villages url, I can see how this could be misleading so I removed the citation from that particular sentences. The UNESCO page you visited lists 13 villages, but this is just a sample of the major throne villages. The RIWAQ source lists 26 throne villages. The Irving source also states "two dozen 'Throne Villages' emerged ..." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Al Ameer son (talkcontribs) 16:31, 3 May 2014‎ (UTC)
  • Ok, I just replaced it with an archived version. Just a note about the offline refs, you'll probably be able to verify them with the links provided in the bibliography. --Al Ameer (talk) 22:31, 7 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Yes. There was one offline source in French, which I made note of in the citation. The rest of the sources are in English. --Al Ameer (talk) 05:20, 19 May 2014 (UTC)
  • So many of these refs are offline that I have to WP:AGF for most of the content. Although most of the refs that I checked needed to be corrected for one reason or another, we are suppose to AGF on offline refs and so I will. The articles appear to generally adhere to WP:MOS otherwise.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 05:48, 19 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Thanks. You'll probably be able to check the offline sources through google books (the links are in the Bibliography section) if you search the key terms. If you have trouble, I can help with any specific questions. --Al Ameer (talk) 15:34, 19 May 2014 (UTC)
