A fact from this article was featured on Wikipedia's Main Page in the On this day section on January 2, 2008.

Scope of word "Boabdil"[edit]

Although he is referred to as "Boabdil" in Spanish the word itself is a Spanish "corruption" and not a "rendering", this is a mis-statement. Moughera (talk) 12:21, 25 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Untitled[edit]

The place where Boabdil turned to look at his beloved Granada for the last time is actually called "El Suspiro del Moro" (the sigh of the Mooor)

David Santamaria, 20-Apr-05

Question : there is a question about the place of his death and resting place. His grave is said by the inhabitants of Tlemcen (Algeria) and Fes (Marocco) to be in their respective cities. In Tlemcen, the gravestone is said to have been taken by the french in Tlemcen (1847) and sent to the international exhibition in Paris (1898) where it would have misteriously disappeard (source : Mr. El Hassar Bénali). Does anybody knows something about this controversy ? We lack so much sources about the life of Muhammad XII of Gharnata...

Date of Death?

The article starts by listing his lifespan as:

(1460?–1527)

But later on says:

... but he soon crossed the Strait of Gibraltar to Fez, where he died in 1533.

Aixa and Ferdinand: Sources?[edit]

I'm trying to find sources for this union, or even the existence of Aixa, and haven't yet found anything but links back to other Wikipedia articles. The footnote here is not to a reliable source, but to someone's blog entry. Given that Boabdil's life has been highly mythologized, it wouldn't surprise me that Aixa is another legend, though not one than I can source at all.

Usage of "Spain"[edit]

Given the period described, perhaps "Spain" should be replaced by the names of the relevant political entities (Catholic Monarchs, Kingdom of Aragon, Kingdom of Castile) or geographic denominations (Iberia, Southern Iberia, Iberian Peninsula and so forth) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.124.65.6 (talk) 13:00, 11 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Someone once told me that the reason Wikipedia uses modern names instead of contemporary names is because of WP:ASTONISH, but I haven't found the rule confirming it, but the editor in question wouldn't stop reverting my edits in the name of this rule when I used contemporary names in another article so I'd say that there is a reason why modern names are used.

Is the numbering XI or XII? Seeing multiple sources which list him at XI (e.g. Collins English Dictionary and Larousse). Gotitbro (talk) 14:40, 4 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
