GA for B12
Looking forward to working with you on the review process. David notMD (talk) 09:27, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

I believe I have addressed the great majority of your comments, leaving out #26 an #27 (I number them), which will be taken care of by a complete revision and referencing of the Enzyme function subsection. I expect to have that completed tomorrow. Your choice to continue with the GA review process now, or wait until I am done, tomorrow. David notMD (talk) 00:13, 21 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Note - have added Diagnosis and Gastric bypass surgery sections. David notMD (talk) 07:20, 21 April 2020 (UTC)

I believe I have addressed all of the initial and follow-up requests for the GA review. David notMD (talk) 10:35, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * And thank you for bringing a new eye to the article. From past experience, when I tackle a GA, I pay the most attention to the content I am comfortable with (nutrition, dietary recommendations, health claims, history), so I find time and again that the GA review forces me to address the parts of the article I did not examine in detail before submitting. David notMD (talk) 12:41, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * and thank you so much for working on the article :) I'm always happy seeing science articles (especially on vital/basic subjects) making it to GAR. I feel kind of bad that my review ended up creating a lot of work for you, but I hope it's for the better. Any plan to take it further beyond GA? HaEr48 (talk) 12:58, 23 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Next up probably my fourth vitamin to GAR (Niacin). I've yet to attempt a FA. I might try that for Vitamin C, as it gets ~4,000 views a day. (And even more recently because of speculation it might help against COVID-19. There are actually a few clinical trials of intravenous vitamin C ongoing; none for oral, which cannot achieve as high serum concentration.) After niacin, probably tackle one or more of the fat-soluble vitamins. Ancient history, but my PhD thesis was on effects of vitamin A depletion and repletion on immune system.

Banu Ashqilula
Hello HaEr48, first of all, Thank you for your contributions to the project! I’d like to ask a question. Is there anything known about the origins of this family (Banu Ashqilula)? Regards -TheseusHeLl (talk) 22:22, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I haven't looked into it, though I've seen members of the family carrying the nisba "Al-Tujibi". Does that suggest descent from Banu Tujib? I don't know. HaEr48 (talk) 22:06, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
 * I doubt that we can conclude their origins from the nisba. They could be their mawlas (clients). -TheseusHeLl (talk) 22:31, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
 * Agreed. HaEr48 (talk) 22:38, 25 April 2020 (UTC)
