  • @Lajmmoore: interesting article, thanks for writing it. It is new enough and long enough, and the sources check out. One source is missing - please could you add a citation for the end of the final sentence in the Historiography section. The hook is interesting and in scope - perhaps wikilink Visigothic and the caliph? QPQ done, so otherwise good to go. Onceinawhile (talk) 22:46, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
    • Thanks very much for the review @Onceinawhile: - I've fixed the sourcing you raised - I had put the references next to the author names but I've moved them to the end of the sentence for clarity. I also did a general copy edit. Thanks for the kind words about the article. Lajmmoore (talk) 07:09, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
      • excellent, good to go! FYI I have added two wikilinks to the hook. Onceinawhile (talk) 07:11, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
        • Onceinawhile, oh thanks! I thought you meant links in the article, so hadn't changed the hook - my mistake (or early morning :) ) Lajmmoore (talk) 09:49, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
