A fact from Abd Allah ibn Ali appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 5 November 2013 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that after the death of the first Abbasid caliph, al-Saffah, his uncle Abdallah ibn Ali led a revolt and tried to claim the throne from al-Saffah's brother, al-Mansur?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2013/November.

missing part

I'd like to ask:

Does the source mention about the year Abd Allah ibn Ali was born (I mean is there any reliable reference)?
Nor is there any evidence of his early life prior to his role in the Abbasid revolution?
Wasn't the name of his mother and possibly his descendants also not mentioned?
And regarding the place of his death, whether in Basra?
I also want to ask if his nickname, Abu Muhammad, is there any reference?
And the Nahr Abi Futrus incident was not mentioned?
Also, did the source not mention the names of the Banu Umayyad figures who were killed by Abd Allah?
actually al-Saffah died in Mecca or Anbar?
