(a) it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline;
(b) reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose);[2]
Going a little more into the revolt in Cyrenaica would be pertinent and/or helpful, or at least hyperlinking to a separate article for that revolt (if there is a good-quality one). That event really should be covered in a little more detail.

Very good job with the images, captions, and maps.
A very well-written article, I'm so glad to have reviewed this. Not only is the article readable and the topic matter interesting, but the article is quite comprehensive and takes pains to stay neutral. Again, thanks for the high-quality article, and I also must praise the fact that the nominator was making edits to continually improve the article and fixing mistakes that I didn't catch.
1: I found several mistakes in the prose which were minor and I corrected them. However, please review the article carefully and correct any typos I might have missed. Gug01 (talk) 18:47, 6 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
Thanks a lot for that. I can't find any major problems, but have tweaked things here and there.
I considered this, but it is more properly part of the analysis of the campaign, rather than "what happened after", or the political impact it had. Perhaps it might simply suffice to reverse the order of the two sections?
On the rebellion in 915, there are not many details available in the primary sources. What little there is ha snow been included. I did add some info on the revolt of Tripolis in 912.
No problem. I totally understand. I'll put the GA nomination on hold for 2 weeks, and will shorten/prolong it based on your finding the book. Don't feel too rushed. Gug01 (talk) 01:26, 18 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
Hi again Gug01, I think I have now addressed the points above. Anything else, even if not directly pertinent to the GA requirements? Any comments on readability/understandability? Cheers, Constantine ✍ 14:56, 20 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
Great job writing the article! There's really nothing left to address in my opinion. PS. Is there an article about the final conquest of Egypt? B/c the link is red and it doesn't lead anywhere. Gug01 (talk) 18:25, 20 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
^ Compliance with other aspects of the Manual of Style, or the Manual of Style mainpage or subpages of the guides listed, is not required for good articles.
^This requirement is significantly weaker than the "comprehensiveness" required of featured articles; it allows shorter articles, articles that do not cover every major fact or detail, and overviews of large topics.
^Vandalism reversions, proposals to split or merge content, good faith improvements to the page (such as copy editing), and changes based on reviewers' suggestions do not apply. Nominations for articles that are unstable because of unconstructive editing should be placed on hold.
^Other media, such as video and sound clips, are also covered by this criterion.
^The presence of images is not, in itself, a requirement. However, if images (or other media) with acceptable copyright status are appropriate and readily available, then some such images should be provided.
