Could you guys standardize the footnotes? You have some inline citations that are full references when they should be abbreviated since there's a Bibliography (notes 1, 2, 10, 13, 14, 15, 16, 25); Note 23 needs to be fixed. If you're going harvard style, then this should be applied to all the refs (at least those citing books and journals). Since it will be featured on the Mainpage, the current mess should be avoided. Once that's done, I'd be happy to pass. --[[User:Al Ameer son|Al Ameer]] ([[User talk:Al Ameer son|talk]]) 15:10, 2 June 2019 (UTC)
