Source: "Secondo le notizie più attendibili era Murâd Aghâ oriundo di Ragusa. Rapito giovanissimo da corsari e condotto in schiavitù a Costantinopoli vi diveniva mussulmano. ... Murâd Aghâ veniva nominato governatore della Tripolitania ..." (Bartoccini, Renato (1924). "La moschea di Murad Agha in Tagiura (Tripolitania)". Architettura e Arti decorative (in Italian). 3 (8): 337–346. Archived from the original on 12 February 2025.); "However, he is best remembered for the construction of the great mosque of Tajura, the design of which indicates that it was also intended to serve as a fortress against incursions by the Order of St John."

Overall: The article is new enough (Created on 8 February) and long enough (3135 characters). It is well-sourced (every paragraph has a citation), neutral in tone, and free of plagiarism concerns (Earwig returns "violation unlikely" and didn't find any myself). The hook is interesting, and sentences supporting the hook within the article have end-of-sentence citations. QPQ has been provided. The image is free, used within the article, and clear at 100px.

Murad Agha, created on 8 February, is long enough, new enough, and well-sourced. No apparent copyvio. The hook is, again, cited and in the body. Interesting pair of articles. QPQ done. Good to go. Tenpop421 (talk) 22:34, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
