Wikipedia's article on the history of the Jews in Spain, community-edited. Reliable for the standard account of Jewish life under Islamic rule in al-Andalus, 711 to 1085, with its own noted high point in the tenth and eleventh centuries, and for the 1492 Alhambra Decree that ended practising Jewish life in Castile and Aragon; not the right source for a precise expulsion headcount, which the article itself gives only as a disputed range.

Reliability Tier3
Community-edited reference page, tier 3. Used for the 711 to 1085 span of Jewish life in al-Andalus and the 1492 Alhambra Decree; the expulsion figure is carried as the article's own disputed range, one hundred thousand to two hundred thousand, rather than a single invented number. NotesUsed for the golden age of Jewish life in al-Andalus and the 1492 expulsion from Spain.
