• 11:1111:11, 9 October 2023 diff hist −1,474‎ The Quran and Mountains ‎ →‎Refers to the earth as a whole: Removed some less helpful tafsir (not "tasfir") quotes to keep it flowing and concise. Tafsirs (especially later ones) have limited evidentiary value in articles about factual errors, so this also helps to avoid diluting the more important evidence.

• 21:0121:01, 6 October 2023 diff hist −582‎ Jinn ‎ No need to fully quote every version of the same narration by the same narrator in other collections. It's mportant for readability to be concise where possible.

• 00:1200:12, 29 September 2023 diff hist −822‎ Scientific Errors in the Quran ‎ Possession point is too incidental so replaced with brief pointer to main article. Character count of this long but important page has increased by 10 percent recently, some of which were minor or dubious supplementary points or excessive detail which will need trimming back at some point.

28 September 2023

• 23:4523:45, 28 September 2023 diff hist −233‎ Scientific Miracles in the Quran ‎ Removed overly general video that touched little on sci miracle claims. The wiki guidelines say we should try to keep to 2 external links per page, so this is already pushing that pretty hard. All links must have significant additional value as the wiki is not a vehicle just to promote various youtubers.

The last one has useful content that will go well with the reproduction article (I will move it there). The wiki guidelines are that we try to limit to 2 external links per page, so already pushing reasonable limits here anyway. Tag: Manual revert
