- 18:0418:04, 21 May 2024 diff hist +742 Al-Baladhuri →Biography: The Biography section gives equal weight to the Arab and Persian origins, when there is only 1 source which gives a unchallenged Arab origin, with the rest of the sources either giving a Persian origin or a challenged Arab origin. Hence, I have added some of the details derived from the same sources to provide the reader with a more accurate representation of the sources used as a collective. Tag: Visual edit

- 19:5819:58, 2 September 2023 diff hist +678 Kalīla wa-Dimna →Origins: Fixed a few mistakes. in the Origins section, it should not be Old Persian but Middle Persian. Also, the Persian transliteration is not 'Kalila va Dimna' but 'Kalila o Dimna.' In Persian, we have a few types of waws. One of them being Waw-e-atf which is responsible for linking two words together, and is in contradistinction to Waw-e-rabt which is responsible for linking two clauses/sentences. the former is always pronounced as 'o' but the latter may be pronounced both ways.

- 03:5803:58, 24 August 2023 diff hist +20 Dara No edit summary Tag: Visual edit
- 03:5703:57, 24 August 2023 diff hist +171 Dara The source mentioned states that the name 'Darā' means 'bell, pendant.' This name is completely different from the name that this article is written about, which is not Darā, but Dārā. Secondly, the sentence began by saying "in Parsi," which gives the reader the impression that the language in question is Persian, since one of the terms for Persian is Parsi, along with Farsi and Persian. The source is talking about the Parsi people, who do not currently even speak Persian. Tag: Visual edit

- 17:3417:34, 18 August 2023 diff hist +804 Din (Arabic) →Etymology: From my first edit on this page, I have been trying to represent the dominating view in academia regarding the etymology of this word, which I felt was underrepresented and presented as a minority view instead of a majority one. This edit, like all my other ones, is toward the same goal. If anyone has any objections feel free to discuss it with me on the talk page. Also, if anyone has more sources supporting the view of Gardet and Gaudefroy-Demombynes, feel free to post them. Tag: Visual edit
