thread_title:  Stub and rework 

message: For this article I plan to add as much background information on Al-Khazini as I can. This is his biography page and it has very little information on who he was. As of now the article mentions his most known work as "The Book of Balance and Wisdom", but it does not go into detail about how or what he studied during his life time. I plan to try and add more information on his contributions to science. I have a lot of work to do to try and better this article so any advice or criticism is welcome.

replies: text: You definitely added much more information onto this article considering there was almost nothing on it to start with. The only suggestions I can think of for further improvement would be to add a little bit more of his background information about his life and maybe a little more detail about how the balance worked and what the tables were intended to be for. However, I know you found this article on the stubs page, and a lot of the suggestions on there are stubs for a reason. If there was a lot of information available his article certainly would have been much longer. I myself was considering editing this article but decided not to because I couldn't find anything related to the subject. Given the amount of information available to you I think you did a good job expanding the article. Khan ali10 (talk) 01:19, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I think you did a good job expanding this article. There is a lot of good information here. The suggestions I would have would be to read over the article again and check for spelling and grammatical errors. Also, some of the wording is a little awkward and I think the whole article would be much more cohesive with just a little rewording. You did a great job! Osbo6401 (talk) 03:10, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
