557:{xt|The work has been edited and published by Wladimir Ivanow in Bulletin of the Faculty of Arts (University of Egypt, Vol. 4, Part 2, 1936), pp. 93–107, and an English translation has been provided by the same author in his Ismaili Tradition concerning the Rise of the Fatimids (London, Oxford University Press, 1942), pp. 157–183. The Arabic text is also published in Suhayl Zakkar's Akhbār al-Qarāmiṭa (2nd edition, Damascus, 1982), pp. 111–132.}} - I would put all this in a separate place, for instance in a Notes section. 42: 573:
It was published by M. Ghalib, Beirut, 1984, and in a critical edition with an English translation by Arzina R. Lalani, in Degrees of Excellence: A Fatimid Treatise on Leadership in Islam. An Arabic Edition and English translation of Ahmad al-Naysaburi’s Kitab Ithbat al-Imama (London, I. B. Tauris in

A facsimile edition was published in Verena Klemm, Die Mission des fatimidischen Agenten al-Mu’ayyad fi'ddin in Siraz (Frankfurt, Peter Lang, 1989), pp. 205–277,and a translated critical edition by Verena Klemm and Paul E. Walker as A Code of Conduct. A Treatise on the Etiquette of the Fatimid
230: 326:- are the quotation marks needed here? It looks imo as if they were spoken by someone (in which case the author should be included in the sentence), or that Nishapur was experiencing something that wasn't quite an intellectual renaissance, but approximated towards one. 611:
Not sure how. The content of the works should make clear their importance ("first public version of the Fatimid dynasty's official genealogy","an extremely important representation of the Fatimid vision of the imamate",
584:
I am unsure whether this is a good idea. The article deals as much with al-Naysaburi's works as with him as a historical person, and the editions are important when discussing a written work. Let me consider this a few
602:
Although full treatment is given to his three main works, I would consider ensuring that 'among which three are highly important for Fatimid and Isma'ili history' in the lead section is also included in some form
47: 126: 719:, I think I've dealt with the last of your points. Please have another look. Also, if you have any comments or suggestions beyond the requirements for GA, feel free to make them. 122: 107: 429:
An interesting suggestion, but the content of that section is rather irrelevant to the context here; I am afraid that it might confuse the average reader rather than help
52: 99: 80: 213:
I would also add to the lead section two other points: that very little is known about his life; and that his works are known from later Isma'ili literature.
70: 469:
has little in common with where Ahmad ibn Ibrahim al-Naysaburi went on his travels. Is it possible to be more precise about where he went on his journey?
197:- condense to 'Three of his works are highly important for Fatimid and Isma'ili history', which implies that he wrote a number of works. 115: 17: 156: 75: 265:
OK on the Google Books link, but I think it is not allowed to post the others, as they are essentially copyright violations.
92: 345:- name Klemm and Walker and include the phrase as a quotation, as 'presumably' otherwise appears as an example of 629:
Should Ahmad ibn Ibrahim al-Naysaburi not be included in the Isma'ilism infobox? (this can be done if needed)
746: 474: 171: 150: 503:, so pretty much the whole width of North Africa, but the exact itinerary is somewhat out of scope here. 458:
Indeed, but I wager good money many people don't know what North Africa is, and the link is helpful.
723: 707: 346: 269: 195:
He wrote a number of works, among which three are highly important for Fatimid and Isma'ili history
750: 726: 710: 478: 272: 250: 175: 160: 405:
Done now, and partly adopted the suggestion for the three main works to be somehow highlighted.
368:- consider amending to something like 'writing about topics ranging from' to improve the prose. 742: 716: 700: 470: 167: 146: 254: 720: 704: 465:
I would disagree that the link is useful, as I suspect the area covered by the article
266: 645:
Reference 23 (Brett) - words in quote marks not found. Do you know the exact page?
488: 334:
Quotation marks removed, it is not a quote and you are right, they are misleading.
