Warning

Do not present beliefs or thoughts as facts on Wikipedia. As you did here[1] Basan clearly states on page 91, "Suleyman-Shah is thought to have committed suicide".

Also, do not change referenced information to what your poorly referenced source(no page number) states when there was already a source present(Grousset, 1970, p154). I will assume good faith that this was a simple error on your part. Please be more careful in the future. --Kansas Bear (talk) 16:44, 21 April 2022 (UTC)

Hi Kansas Bear, sorry for the mess, in this case I could not find the other sources where I had read that Süleiman had killed himself but had to leave for work. I had Now that the weekend has come I could dig in again and found the sources.

Here are the two primary sources where the suicide is mentioned:

Anna Komnena: https://pbw2016.kdl.kcl.ac.uk/person/111756/

Ibn al-Athir: https://books.google.es/books?id=J5hIAwAAQBAJ&pg=PP3&dq=The+Annals+of+the+Saljuq+Turks&hl=es&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiC9rKqmKj3AhXGtKQKHXWfCdoQ6AF6BAgEEAI#v=onepage&q=The%20Annals%20of%20the%20Saljuq%20Turks&f=false

Is there a way I can save my progress without publishing the page for another time?

I also promise I will be more carefull. PontiffSulivahn (talk) 08:51, 23 April 2022 (UTC)

Follow-up on edit

Hi PontiffSulivahn, a quick follow-up request about this edit at Fatimid Caliphate: you added a citation to Köhler 2013, but that reference isn't in the list of sources yet so it doesn't refer readers to anything at the moment. Could you add the reference to the list? (Or even let me know where to find it and I can add myself.) Thanks!

PS: Just a heads-up, on the same edit but an unrelated point, I removed the flag icons you added to the infobox because practice is to avoid having them there (with some exceptions). See MOS:INFOBOXFLAG. R Prazeres (talk) 17:56, 21 January 2023 (UTC)

Forget my request! The source is indeed there (assuming you meant Alliances and Treaties between Frankish and Muslim Rulers in the Middle East) but I just figured out why the citation wasn't linking to it. I'll fix it myself in a moment. Thanks again for your addition to the article. R Prazeres (talk) 18:06, 21 January 2023 (UTC)

Hi R Prazeres, thanks for correcting my wrong quotation. I meant indeed "Alliances and Treaties between Frankish and Muslim Rulers in the Middle East" (and hope to actually expand it once I finish reading this and a related article) but I did the citation wrong - thanks for correcting!

Also thanks for letting me know on the flags. I personally like it colourful, but I understand that it can be a bit distracting. Cheers! PontiffSulivahn (talk) 20:21, 21 January 2023 (UTC)

Missing cite in Ezzolied

The article cites "Schultz 2018" but no such source is listed in the bibliography. Can you please add? Or is it a typo in year? Also, suggest installing a script to highlight such errors in the future. All you need to do is copy and paste importScript('User:Svick/HarvErrors.js'); // Backlink: [[User:Svick/HarvErrors.js]] to your common.js page. Thanks, Renata•3 01:28, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

Hi Renata•3, it was a typo in the year as I copied the citation around - my bad. Thanks for the code, that is really handy and I have copied it into the common.js page (my first script, yay!) Cheerio, PontiffSulivahn (talk) 20:32, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

New article on parting of the ways

Hi PontiffSullivahn! There’s a new article on the split of Christianity and Judaism that could use help from a great religion editor like yourself. :) Zanahary (talk) 15:55, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

Hi Zanahary! Thanks for the shutout, much appreciated. I am afraid that I have as of now little knowledge about this topic though it is very interesting (alas, life is to short for everything...). I am also a bit more focused on the early to middle medieval period with some excursions along the way when I come across some hidden gems.

However, let me know how I can help and should I come across some sources, I shall forward you to them.

Cheers, PontiffSulivahn (talk) 18:05, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

Thanks Pontiff! If you happen to find any good (especially overview and historiographic) sources, those would be very useful Zanahary (talk) 23:09, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

Sourcing on En-Calcat Abbey#Abbots

Nice article, but the section En-Calcat Abbey#Abbots in your recent article, needs sources.

Thanks for fixing this.  // Timothy :: talk  08:23, 2 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi Timothy, thanks you very much!

So I added as citation the website of the monastery to each line but am a bit doubtful. First, I was wondering whether there is a more elegant way to do it then to add it then to add it to each line and second, there are basically four pages on the website of the Abbey where I took the information from. So should I add each singular page into my sources separately or is there, again, a more elegant way to do it.

Would much appreciate your guidance, I have not found anything on how to proceed in these cases and am still kind of new to Wikipedia :-) PontiffSulivahn (talk) 13:13, 2 March 2024 (UTC)

Undefined sfn reference in Arabic poetry

Hi, in this edit to Arabic poetry you introduced {{sfn|Noble|1994|pp=618-619}} but no such work is listed as a source. This means that nobody can look it up, and also adds the article to Category:Harv and Sfn no-target errors. If you could supply the missing source it would be appreciated. DuncanHill (talk) 14:57, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi @DuncanHill, thanks for notifying! That was a mistake of mine, I copy pasted the snfp citation without adjusting it properly. I have fixed it as of now. PontiffSulivahn (talk) 18:44, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

Thank you, DuncanHill (talk) 18:53, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

Tzamandos

Hi, for your information, I ended up removing your addition to Melikgazi, because it is actually a different place from Tzamandos. The fortress of Tzamandos is next to the village Melikgazi, Pınarbaşı, the article of which has not been created yet. (Actually, creating an additional page about the fortress of Tzamandos would be even better.) Melikgazi is also a district located further west and is a recently created administrative division, not a historical place by itself. Aintabli (talk) 05:48, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Aintabli, thanks for the notification and for providing me with this information! That location also makes more sense as on maps the location did not seem to agree but as the search for Tzamandos redirected to Melikgazi, I thought that somebody had already established that link. I have to find a good source though, for now I only found this page that associates Tzamandos with a fortress next to the village your mention: https://www.castles.nl/zamanti-castle

I have therefore changed the Tzamandos redirect for now to the Pınarbaşı article and added there also the other information I added to the Melikgazi article. I am currently with some other projects but hope to take care of the Tzamandos article in the medium future. PontiffSulivahn (talk) 11:11, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

Okay, thank you for the work. I have been working on historical articles with sources that frequently referred to the fortress. So, I was thinking about creating an article about the fortress, but I have been pressed for time in the last several days. Let me know if you get to create the article before I get the chance to, I might have some content to add. Thank you once again. Aintabli (talk) 01:04, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
