request: link to wikiquote

could someone with edit access add a link to her newly created wikiquote page? --A23423413 (talk) 21 September 2024 — Preceding undated comment added 16:14, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Year of birth is 1917

In her autobiography, "A Mountainous Journey", Fadwa Toukan (or "Tuqan", as is the name used on the English version) tells the story about how, in 1950, when she applied for her first passport, she had to ask her mother about when she was born. Her mother said: "I´ll tell you where you can find a reliable clue to the year you were born [] When my cousin, Kamil Asqalan, fell in action, I was seven months pregnant. " [] They agreed to go to the cemetery the next day to find her cousins gravestone; this way she found out she was born in 1917. (Story is taken from p. 14-15 in "A Mountainous Journey", English version, 1990). Regards, Huldra (talk) 16:01, 26 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Conflicting Information & Missing Citation

It's mentioned she was taken out of school at 13 due to illness, but I have two sources so far that cite different reasons. And the sentence that says she was taken out due to illness doesn't even have a citation. --Cooperthestupor (talk) 18:57, 12 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
