- 23:4423:44, 4 June 2024 diff hist +39 Muslim world Undid revision 1227307359 by M.Bitton (talk) Ok, I'm asking for a ref. Until a suitable ref exists, that outweights Zirkle and Stott, unsupported claims shouldn't be included. Tag: Undo
- 23:4123:41, 4 June 2024 diff hist +68 m Muslim world →Literature: bold claims like these should be supported. The cites at the end of the paragraph are only for the last sentence.
- 23:3123:31, 4 June 2024 diff hist +39 Muslim world →Philosophy: adding URL to cite for convenience. It does not say that al-Jahiz was influential or had any thoughtts on evolution; only 1 line saying he "adopted the path of skepticism". Conway Zirkle said al-Jahiz was the *only* medieval Islamic writer to say anything vaguely related to evolution, so he couldn't have been influential. Stott said claims he wrote about evolution are "unconvincing" see Al-Jahiz#Kitāb_al-Ḥayawān_(كتاب_الحيوان)_'book_of_the_animal' Tag: Reverted

However, you are right that I should have left an edit comment explaining. Please leave a comment on the Talk page for any specific issues. As is, article is mostly wrong and sources either fail verification or are irrelevant. Can't fit more details here, see talk page Tag: Undo
