[edit]

I reverted three small edits.

I think this no doubt well-intentioned edit is not the best approach. I think that redirection is far, far more appropriate, in instances like this.

Wikis, like the wikipedia, share important characteristics with databases. It is possible to use a raw dump of a database. But it is orders of magnitude more work -- because a big fraction of the power of a database lies in the links, not the text. It is the same with a wiki.

The "what links here" button is a very powerful feature. It can tell you the different spellings used to get to the actual article -- provided someone doesn't come along and replace the actual spelling with a piped link.

Unless someone can offer an overwhelmingly good reason not to do so with Osama bin Laden bodyguard and bodyguard to Osama bin Laden, I would prefer to use redirection.

[edit]

The image that i have removed from the article violates the basic rules of Wikipedia. It is the own work of a Wikipedia editor who took a primary source combined it with other sources and then interpreted them. This is a violation of WP:OR. The fact that these are mostly primary sources has also further problems as it does not comply with the policies of BLP's of living people. So i see this topic as taken to the talk page and the image should not be re-included until consensus has been reached. IQinn (talk) 09:59, 26 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
