About your edits to Ibn al-Jayyab
Hi Varles, I wanted to let you know directly that all the content you added to Ibn al-Jayyab needs to be accompanied by clear citations to reliable sources in order to be acceptable on Wikipedia (see the Verifiability policy for more details). I see you did that for the last section (Relationship with Ibn al-Khatib), but I'd like to make sure that you also do that for the rest of the content you added. His poetry, and statements like "it is said that" or "it is recorded that" (in the Nasrid Court section), are especially in need of clear citations to indicate which source the information is coming from.

Listing sources at the end is unfortunately not enough, because other editors and readers won't know which pieces of information came from which sources. I see that the older version of the article did not have inline citations either, which is also a problem (it probably didn't get fixed because few people were paying attention to the article), but it was also much shorter, so a major expansion needs to make the effort to respect Wikipedia policy.

Thanks for editing and let me know if you need any help or if you have any questions. If useful, you can also check out some of the explanatory pages like Help:Referencing for beginners. Cheers, R Prazeres (talk) 16:18, 15 April 2023 (UTC)
