Averroes

 * This hook is good to go; if you want to use it let me know and I'll pass the DYK. Catrìona (talk) 14:15, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * ALT1: ... that many works of Averroes (pictured) did not survive today in the original Arabic, but only as Latin or Hebrew translations? Source: "Adamson 2016, p. 180-181
 * I would have written "... that many of Averroes' works did not survive in the original Arabic, but only as Latin or Hebrew translations?" I would not use "works of Averroes" in this context, but with the picture it is awkward either way. Catrìona (talk) 14:15, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * ALT1b:... that many of Averroes' works (Averrroes pictured) did not survive today in the original Arabic, but only as Latin or Hebrew translations? HaEr48 (talk) 06:40, 13 July 2018 (UTC)
 * ALT2: ... that Averroes (pictured) served as the chief judge of Córdoba and the Almohad court physician at the same time?  Source: Arnaldez 1986, p. 910.

 * Thanks for the review. I'm embarrassed that I missed that :| I reworded that sentence, and checked the rest of the earwig report (seems no more close paraphrasing issue). Let me know if there's more I could do. HaEr48 (talk) 13:53, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
