  • A page such as this is missing several points of interest such Early Life, Middle Life, Later Life/Death. This page could be structured and set up more similarly to pages that have been edited heavily to convey information in a smoother manner. This page also hasn't been edited since 2016 and I believe that much more could be added to improve the class and rating of this forgotten translator from the middle ages.

  • A suggestion for an improvement to this article would be the inclusion of a list of work he has been credited with translating.Lmefford (talk) 22:01, 20 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

We're adding to the article chunks of information within each section. We're also reorganizing the section regarding his translations into medical, astronomical, and philosophical. Cwynd (talk) 15:11, 1 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
