Thanks for assessing this article AustralianRupert. Just fixed the referencing issue in the table, and went ahead and upgraded the article to B-class now that the final criterion has been met. --Al Ameer (talk) 17:44, 18 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I have a couple of questions: Lady Hester Stanhope met an "Emir Mahannah el Fadel" at Palmyra, (around 1815) should we link that "el Fadel" to this article?
Also, there should be some link to the Al-Khisas article (and from that article to this): The former winter palace is today HaGoshrim_Hotel.
@Huldra: Mahannah el-Fadel definitely sounds like a member of this tribe, though I wasn’t aware they were active in Palmyra as late as the 19th century. I’d like to look into this more. Could you point me to a link? Please feel free to link al-Khisas here. Otherwise, I’ll add more about events there later this week. And thanks for those articles! Will read them shortly. —Al Ameer (talk) 15:04, 1 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Al Ameer son: I am reading the original sources now (I have started with the Irby&Mangles book, intend to continue with the Charles Lewis Meryon books about Stanhope. (And possibly the Richardson books). It is slooooow going though, I tend to get distracted... I would suspect the info is in one of the Meryon-books, Huldra (talk) 23:46, 3 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
