- 23:3823:38, 6 May 2024 diff hist −67 Ismail al-Jazari failed verification; source doesn't say he was a mathematician (which he wan't, there's nothing about math accomplishments anywhere on this page or elsewhere. even says he avoided theoretical calculations). No serious source says he was; only one pop history book by a non-historian says that, and it's unsourced, and was written after that claim was posted on wikipedia (I suspect Circular reporting again).

I found the source (despite the terrible citation) https://press.uchicago.edu/books/HOC/HOC_V2_B1/Volume2_Book1.html says "In time, however, al-Idrisi himself came to be regarded as one of the foremost geographers and cartographers of medieval Europe. In collaboration with other scholars in Roger's court, he completed a world map" never says he's the father of anything, or that it was the first world map, etc current

Source only says "al-Jazari in his works, “gives a description of true sequential automata, driven notably by a camshaft" not that he invented it. Other sources eg https://www.chevyhardcore.com/tech-stories/camshaft-101-the-history-and-substance-of-camshafts/ "An early cam was built into the Hellenistic water-driven automata from the 3rd-century BC, which is probably the first engineering reference to camshafts"
