Hi! I'll be reviewing this article for GA status and should have my full review up shortly. Dana boomer (talk) 19:24, 2 May 2012 (UTC)


 * GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
 * Background, "Nikephoros assembled his army and marched out himself to meet a second, larger invasion under the Caliph himself." Is there any way to avoid the repetition of "himself"?
 * The campaign, "(gazi, hajj)" What is this supposed to mean?
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * Sources all look good, no indication of OR or copyvio.
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars, etc.:
 * 1) It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
 * a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:

Other than a couple of minor prose issues (detailed above), I can find nothing of issue in this article. Because of that, I am passed it to GA as is; I hope that the issues I list above will be rectified, but in my opinion they do not reflect on the article's readability to the point of preventing it from being listed as a GA.
