- Comment: It may be argued that my review of the al-Majdhub article was minimal, since I only intervened to point out that it was ungrammatical. If this is the case, I will jump in to review another.

Overall: @Dahn: Good article. But, i'm confused on what the hook is saying at "published Romanian verse in Georgian script?" Onegreatjoke (talk) 01:36, 4 September 2023 (UTC)

@Onegreatjoke: Romanian was written in Cyrillic at that stage, and in Latin now. The man was publishing books in Georgian, with Georgian script, and added a poem with Romanian -- probably the only time in history that Romanian was written in Georgian script.

I guess that's good then. Onegreatjoke (talk) 00:50, 11 September 2023 (UTC)
