al-Battani

Improved to Good Article status by Amitchell125 (talk). Nominated by Onegreatjoke (talk) at 21:28, 1 March 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/al-Battani; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.
Overall: Recent GA article is very well sourced and has no issues. The sources in the article verify the hook (for example Ref 3 says he "is regarded as the best and most famous astronomer of Medieval Islam"). @Onegreatjoke: The only tweak I would make might be shortening ALT0, I don't think it's necessary to specify "of the known astronomers" since unknown astronomers can't be famous. That's not necessary though since it's well within length limits either way. Otherwise both hooks are very interesting! BuySomeApples (talk) 01:48, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
