Comment: The writing looks good so far. Could use a source or two more, however. For the three refs, #1 looks solid for the Egyptian revolution part. However, source #2 is a passing mention (which is fine on its own, but doesn't help show notability), and source #3 does not seem very reliable. Utopes (talk / cont) 19:52, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
