Edward Said was not an influence on Talal Asad. Talal’s critical account of Orientalism preceded Said’s book of that name. On the contrary Talal and Edward had substantial disagreements according to Tala Asad. Also Talal’s discussion of Orientalism was published 5 years early the Said’s Orientalism.

Hello, the Palestinian National Council subsection (under the Politics section) currently ends with several lines about an investigation by Commentary in 1999 that seem to call into question Said's "claims" about his "Palestinian boyhood". Said's response to these criticisms is not mentioned. Based on this interview, I would like to suggest an addition at the end of the current section, something like:
"Said responded to these reports, noting that he had described his upbringing as being split between Jerusalem, Cairo and Lebanon in his 1999 memoir, Out of Place. Said claimed that Commentary's investigation was intended to discredit Palestinian activism more broadly, stating: "If they can prove that the leading Palestinian intellectual is a liar, what does this say about the rest of the Palestinians?" 2600:4041:5369:5D00:891C:5A13:4FAC:93A4 (talk) 18:26, 29 September 2023 (UTC)
I read the paragraph in the PW article you cite, but it is underwhelming. At most, per WP:BALASP, I would write: Said responded that Commentary's investigation was intended to discredit Palestinian activism by discrediting him. -- Ssilvers (talk) 18:11, 20 October 2023 (UTC)
Still a GA?
For anyone who follows this page (or anyone who reviews this sort of thing), do you think this article is still a GA? It looks to me like it has accumulated quite a bit of cruft and varous pet peeves since it was promoted. -- Ssilvers (talk) 18:14, 20 October 2023 (UTC)
2 editors have already done some cleanup work on it, since I posted the question. Feel free to help out. Happy editing. -- Ssilvers (talk) 03:17, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

Not done: this is not the right page to request additional user rights. You may reopen this request with the specific changes to be made and someone may add them for you. By "specific", this means you would provide the exact prose to insert, where to insert it, and relevant reliable sources which support the addition. —Sirdog(talk) 07:19, 21 October 2023 (UTC)
"He told me" in a non-peer reviewed essay is hearsay; considering the demonstrable inaccuracies in the source, they can be considered UNDUE, and the source is suspect.
