... that the Roman-era Ard-al-Moharbeen necropolis is the largest cemetery discovered in Gaza?

Comment: I'm open to suggestions of alternative hooks. I wasn't sure whether to mention that it's Roman, or how many graves have been found.

Thanks for creating this article Richard Nevell. I will be reviewing it shortly. But yes, I would add that it was a 'Roman-era' cemetery in the hook. --Al Ameer (talk) 20:14, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I've squeezed that into the hook, just before the name of the article. Richard Nevell (talk) 20:55, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Richard Nevell. The bases have all been covered (length, date, sourcing and QPQ). It is well written, but one thing you should add in the article is the specific location of the cemetery. Al Ameer (talk) 20:00, 14 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
