wow this is an amazing example of Wiki quality reversion. Look at the way I wrote it a couple of years ago, and the way it is now. It has been wikifically transformed into unreadable crap by a succession of well-meaning people. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jackbrown ( talk • contribs) 14:43, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

The common belief and the most common narrated story about The Battle of Karbala is that Mohammed b. Al-Hanafiyyah, the brother of Al-Husayn from the father side, was sick at the time of the movement of Al-Husayn from Medina to Karbala, and he did not accompany his brother to there. He also was in Medina to receive the news and the survivors of the battle. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lonelytj ( talk • contribs) 14:13, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
I think it's better now than when you edited it as the mistakes have been cleared up. I even looked at past revisions of the article.-- 84.13.162.50 ( talk) 19:20, 30 April 2012 (UTC)
I changed the title to Mukhtar al-Thaqafi because that is the most common name used in English sources. Zabranos ( talk) 21:47, 4 August 2013 (UTC)
Most of these references must write under note section because just page numbers are different. Saff V. ( talk) 09:57, 3 October 2015 (UTC)
This article is heavily biased and lacks real reference. The references presented are that of biased Shias lacking credibility. Even entire passages are copied from Shia blog Al-Islam.org. Phrases like "Fought Bravely" speaks of the bias. Hassanfarooqi ( talk) 15:26, 24 July 2018 (UTC)
The article as of 2024 had become more secular biased. I've adopted the legacy section to take on a more objective perspective comparing tone. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 175.32.148.243 ( talk) 11:52, 28 January 2024 (UTC)

I would suggest you put in some background info in the first paragraph. People who are reading the lead should not have to follow wikilinks in order to see if they are interested in reading the whole article.

Just a suggestion. I don't like to edit today's FA on my own. -- RoyGoldsmith ( talk) 08:18, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
@ LouisAragon: Thanks for adding the source. I, unfortunately, don't have access to it. I had bought one-day subscription some time ago and regret not downloading many articles that I now need-this one among them. Do you have access? PS. ping template doesn't work inside edit summary. If you want someone's attention in there, just wikilink the username in the normal way. AhmadLX- (Wikiposta) 19:34, 19 April 2021 (UTC)
