@شادي: I have no idea why you claimed that the content that you removed is not in the source. I have checked and I can confirm that it is, so please don't remove it again. M.Bitton (talk) 22:44, 21 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

@R Prazeres Did not find it in the source in the beggining when I clicked to the link, but then discovered that I did not have acsess to the source...
The fact that it was given away to Spain by a saadi sultan was denied by Al Ifrani, a reliable source here exactly+ another reliable source denied it p159 + the whole story seem to be unconsistent because the islot was under ottoman control since 1554 (more info in this wikipedia article).

So I ask kindly to remove the false information (most historians based themselves on Al Nasiri who never actually confirmed it just mentionned it in his book + he said it was found in "unknown files") more elaborate sources do not mention it. Shadi (talk) 23:29, 21 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Al Ifrani is an ancient source (I haven't checked what he says). The book by Robert Rezette was published in 1976, and is therefore older than the Encyclopedia of Islam.
I see that you pinged "R Prazeres" (I assume that was a mistake and you meant to ping me), but for the others, I'll remind you that WP:CANVASSING is disruptive, so If any of them weigh in, their opinion will be ignored. M.Bitton (talk) 23:49, 21 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Yes by error, the ping to others was just to know others opinion about the subject.
To have a clear consensus about the subject (it need more than two people). But I was wrong I guess.
Anyways, per source, I think it is clear that Saadi sultan couldn't have "handed over the islot to the spanish" because it was under ottoman ("turk pirates") control then. Shadi (talk) 00:05, 22 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
