Quotes

I'm re-checking quotes to make sure they are identical with the sources, especially Arabic and French ones. Nourerrahmane (talk) 15:36, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

PRG

Hi @Elinruby: @Nourerrahmane: How much more work are planing to do to the article? The reason I ask I think it fairly complete now. I think its the law of diminishing returns now. I was wondering if we can submit it to WP:PRG this week and perhap schedule a copyedit. I have an editor in mind, Polygnotus, who might not mind doing a run through on it. What do you think? scope_creep^Talk 08:01, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

depends on whether Nour is done. I see some copy editing that could be done, but I don't think I have to be the person who does it. But let's respect Polygnotus' time, hmm? I also think we should do Mathglot's Earwhig hack. It was suggested for good reason; apparently some past editor had trouble with the concept. Bottom line, good idea, when Nour is done rewriting. Fresh eyes would be good. Elinruby (talk) 08:09, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

Hello i think i'm done rewriting, i'm still not sure about that long de Grammont quote in Legacy section though. Hopefully i have fixed the issue with quotes and i'll sure give it another check. Nourerrahmane (talk) 08:46, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

please do because that would be a serious problem and it would be embarrassing for someone else to find it. Same with copy vio. Elinruby (talk) 12:37, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

You're good to go Scope, it's okay for me if there are still some mistakes, since i have worked on this the best i can. Nourerrahmane (talk) 13:17, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

@Elinruby: @Nourerrahmane: That is the whole point of external review to surface any work, to spot anything that needs fixed. I do know it will take some time before it kicks off; it could be a week, it could a month or longer. There is a fair sized queue there. If we can do the Mathglot Earwig hack first and then kick of PRG and see what happens. Put it in on Saturday, give a couple of days to do the Earwig report. scope_creep^Talk 16:35, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

Nour, what are you unsure about with the de Grammont quote? If it is length, then that is not necessarily a problem as long as the quoted material is important. And exact, but you have been checking for that, right? Elinruby (talk) 20:03, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

It was about length but if it’s important and descriptive enough of the general 19th century view of Algiers then I’ll leave it. And yes I have been checking for this and other quotes to make sure they are accurate and identical to what’s in RS. Nourerrahmane (talk) 22:24, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

Thats it added. A bot will post it to the list in an hour or two. scope_creep^Talk 08:06, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

Thanks scope ! Nourerrahmane (talk) 08:26, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
