  • ... that the Duke of Tuscany (pictured) allied with Ali Janbulad, the Kurdish chief and rebel governor of Aleppo, to destroy the Ottoman Empire and establish Ali as "Prince of the Kingdom of Syria"?

    • ALT1:... that the Kurdish tribal chief Ali Janbulad launched a revolt against the Ottomans from Aleppo to avenge the execution of his uncle by Grand Vizier Sinan Pasha?

General: Article is new enough and long enough

Policy compliance:

Hook eligibility:

  • Cited: No - ?
  • Interesting: Yes
Image: Image is freely licensed, used in the article, and clear at 100px.
QPQ: Done.

Overall: Article was moved to mainspace on July 22 and nominated within time. Length is adequate. Article appears neutral in tone. No plagiarism issues detected. QPQ requirement is complete. All images in the article are freely licensed on the commons. The nominated photo for ALT0 is clear at a low resolution and enhances the hook. ALT0 is interesting, just under 200 characters, verified by the cited source, but the citation is at the end of a very, very long run-on sentence. I suggest breaking up the sentence to put the citation closer to the hook. ALT1 is reasonably interesting, but I cannot find where it is cited in the article. I think I am looking for when Ahmed was killed? Did I miss it somewhere? Lastly, there are couple instances of direct quotes that need a citation directly after sentence which contains them. Overall the article is very well written and will pass with minor adjustments. Thanks. Flibirigit (talk) 02:06, 13 August 2020 (UTC)

@Flibirigit: Making the improvements, will update you here when I am finished. Thank you for taking the time to review this article. Al Ameer (talk) 02:20, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
Okay, whenever you're ready. No rush. Flibirigit (talk) 04:20, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
@Flibirigit: The run-on was broken up and citations have been added immediately after all quotations. The original hook ("ALT0") is my preference anyway, we could just scrap ALT1. --Al Ameer (talk) 21:59, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
ALT0 is approved, it is interesting, properly mentioned and cited inline and verified. ALT1 has been struck as per comments above. Nomination now meets all sourcing and other DYK criteria. Flibirigit (talk) 00:37, 14 August 2020 (UTC)
