- 21:5421:54, 4 March 2016 diff hist +39 Geocentrism and the Quran →The visibility of the sun's movement: Changed to Sahih Intl translation, which as is so often the case, is most accurate. The sentence parsing is important to leave no doubt.
- 21:5221:52, 4 March 2016 diff hist +143 Geocentrism and the Quran →The course of the sun in relation to the course of the moon: Note that 36:37 gives more proof that the sun's movement is supposed to be visible
- 21:3821:38, 4 March 2016 diff hist +55 Geocentrism and the Quran →Primary Evidence: I always tend to feel that "orbit" lends an undeserved air of scientific credibility to the Qur'an, so just a little note on that as falak can mean semi circle
- 21:3021:30, 4 March 2016 diff hist −1,004 Geocentrism and the Quran →Primary Evidence: Maybe contentious, but the hadiths and scientist only appear right at the end in a minor role so I've removed the preamble, which is partly duplicated there anyway. Better to shorten, get right into it before the reader gets bored.
- 21:2321:23, 4 March 2016 diff hist −683 Geocentrism and the Quran →The movement of the sun and timekeeping: Made explicit the connection with previous section. Shortened article by removing the full prayer time quotes as adds little, instead added their verse numbers to salat list.

- 21:0021:00, 4 March 2016 diff hist −946 Geocentrism and the Quran →The sun and moon are signs from Allah: Removed the part about 13:2, because it is already in the next section too where it is even more relevant. I'll partly merge those comments into there.

I'll remove from endnotes where it had earlier been put in an effort to shorten the primary evidence list.
- 19:5719:57, 4 March 2016 diff hist −10 Geocentrism and the Quran →The regular cycle of the sun: 'prevents' is not an accurate word given the Arabic. 'Not for' or 'not fitting' is more accurate.
- 19:5319:53, 4 March 2016 diff hist −133 Geocentrism and the Quran →The visibility of the sun's movement: Added the milky way point which this section is crucial in debunking. Also removed an unnoticed apologetic addition.
