... that Fatima al-Suqutriyya is the first attested poet from the island of Socotra and lived in the third century AH (816–913 CE)? Source: Serge D.

Drive-by comment: What is an attested poet? Please rephrase that. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 21:10, 27 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
Yoninah, thanks! Basically attested means 'known' or 'historically verified', so something like this?
ALT0a: ... that Fatima al-Suqutriyya was the first poet known to come from the island of Socotra and she lived in the third century AH (816–913 CE)? Source: Serge D. Elie, 'Soqotra: South Arabia’s Strategic Gateway and Symbolic Playground', British Journal of Middle Eastern Studies, 33.2 (November 2006), 131-60, doi:10.1080/13530190600953278 (p. 158 n. 105).

Here is a full review: New enough, long enough, neutrally written, adequately referenced. As all sources are foreign-language, unable to check for close paraphrasing. I have struck most of the hooks because they follow the formula "Did you know that ... X=Y?" ALT1 is far more interesting and hooky. Foreign language hook ref AGF and cited inline. QPQ done. There is just the matter of one quote which I tagged as needing a cite. The DYK credit lines for creator credits look fine. Yoninah (talk) 20:15, 28 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
