 * Thank you,, and looking forward to your review. In case you feel a bit of deja vu, some passages were taken from Uthman ibn Abi al-Ula which you expanded a while ago :) HaEr48 (talk) 21:17, 6 August 2020 (UTC)

 * was the Nasrid ruler of the Emirate of Granada in Al-Andalus on the Iberian Peninsula from 1325 to 1333. He was the son of Ismail I and the sixth sultan of the dynasty. He acceded to the throne at ten years old when his father was assassinated. May I make a suggestion to compartmentalize the information somewhat differently: was the ruler of the Emirate of Granada in Al-Andalus on the Iberian Peninsula from 1325 to 1333. He was the sixth sultan of the Nasrid dynasty, succeeding to the throne at the age of ten, when his father, Ismail I, was assassinated.
 * Done as suggested. HaEr48 (talk) 02:33, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

 * the young king's court recommend changing to sultan for consistency
 * Done and also changed the subsection title. HaEr48 (talk) 02:33, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * According to near-contemporary historian Ibn Khaldun, they killed him because the Banu Abi al-Ula family considered the Marinid sultans their enemy, because the sultans had exiled them to Granada and considered them political dissidents this may be a bit hard to understand for the uninvolved reader; perhaps something like "According to near-contemporary historian Ibn Khaldun, Muhammad IV was killed because of his Marinid alliance: the Banu Abi al-Ula family had been exiled to Granada as political dissidents by the Marinids, and considered the latter as their enemies"
 * Done something like you suggested, and simplified further. Please take a look and let me know what you think. HaEr48 (talk) 02:33, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * buried near al-munya al-sayyid in Malaga the significance of this is unclear; the term should also be briefly explained somehow.

 * Add location to all books in the References
 * Done. HaEr48 (talk) 02:33, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Granada and the surrounding kingdoms, 14th century in the caption, I strongly recommend adding the precise date, since borders did not remain stable over the entire century
 * Done. I agree, but in this case the border is approximate (the border thickness does not assert any specific borders). HaEr48 (talk) 02:33, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * File:4th-Siege-of-Gibraltar-map.jpg needs sources (not a GA requirement, but would be good to have for A-class/FA) and some explanation what the flags are supposed to represent (I know, but the average reader won't)
 * Added legend for the flags. As for the source, I added a WP:RX for the book likely used by the image creator, but it may take a while. HaEr48 (talk) 02:33, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Now added references for the image (See its Commons page). I believe I have now responded to all your comments. HaEr48 (talk) 02:48, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
