Prof. Neumeier's Comments

Hi Taylor, some specific comments:

--First of all, I can see that you have been hard at work making revisions this past week, which I appreciate.

--We will have to think about how to incorporate your material into the article. I think it might make the most sense for your to group all of your subsections under the section "Islamic manuscript history". You could then see if you can move the existing sections 4 & 5 (A sample of common genres of manuscripts and Scripts) under section 3 (European manuscript history) If you decide to do the second part, you should probably post an explanation on the article's Talk page.

--I would say "Production History" instead of "Construction History". Basically replace the word construct with produce throughout this section.

--Add page numbers for citations 1 & 2

--Link to Qur'an Wikipedia article with a hyperlink in your text: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quran Same goes for the Blue Qur'an: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Qur%27an

--For citation 5, put the author name and title of online essay in the footnote

--If you want to add some information about Literature (or scientific manuscripts, like the Book of Fixed Stars), you could look at this scholarly article on the topic (Bloom's Paper Before Print book should also have some information too): https://archnet.org/publications/5123

And some edits to your text:

--"A common religious manuscript would be of the Qur'an, which is the canon of the religion of Islam. The Qur'an is believed to be a divine revelation (the word of god) from the prophet Mohammed, revealed to him by Archangel Gabriel" TO "A common religious manuscript would be a copy of the Qur'an, which is the sacred book of Islam. The Qur'an is believed by Muslims to be a divine revelation (the word of god) to the prophet Mohammed, revealed to him by Archangel Gabriel"

--"Traditionally speaking in the Islamic empire, calligraphy" (perhaps qualify this as "Arabic calligraphy")
