I am tagging this article for POV-check, because the article is heavily anti-Muslim. In fact all the other articles by the user User:Slarre are Muslim-bashing. Instead of discussing the mosques per se, like where is it located, when was it built, etc, he has only discussed 'individuals' who visited these mosques who were later charged with or suspected of having ties with organizations suspected of ties toterrorism. In fact, if I were to debate, he has no connection with the mosque, and therefore does not have the right to write anything about it. 71.231.177.100 07:10, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Anti-Muslim? Can you give me any example in "all articles" that I've written that is degrading to Muslims in general? Everyone has the right contribute to a subject which they have no personal connection to (please read Wikipedia:Introduction for a guideline on how Wikipedia works) so that comment is completely unacceptable. I would welcome more general info about the mosque, such as its history and architectural style etc. However, the fact remains that this mosque has been in the centre of much controversy due to its ties to terrorism and radical islamist groups. Everything in the article is properly sourced. /Slarre 15:16, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I had mentioned Muslim-bashing, not degrading. All your articels under various headings have only one theme - to point out that Muslims are terrorists. That is why I said this article is not neutral. You are entitled to your opinion, but please spare wikipedia from them. The sources you mention are themselves are just one-sided, hence not neutral. To stay neutral, sightings contrary to the view point you have expressed should be mentioned. What you have mentioned are not facts - they are one-sided interpretations. And finally assuming that what you wrote is correct, that is hardly a topic under the heading of mosques. It would belong to a heading something like terrorism. 131.107.0.73 23:42, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to be taken seriously you need to stop making sweeping allegations of this alleged "anti-Muslim bias" and instead provide some concrete examples and proposals of improvements. How can it be "anti-Muslim" to point out to the fact that some mosques or islamic organizations have been linked to terrorism? This mosque has clearly been linked to various terrorist activities, so it definitely belongs to the article (see North London Central Mosque for another example). Also If you take a look at my contributions you can see that 95% of the articles started by me has nothing to do with Islam or Muslims at all, so you are simply wrong on this claim. /Slarre 22:16, 17 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

removing statement not supported by the reference

Removed "which is linked to al-Qaeda" because that is not said in the refered sourse. If a reliable sourse is presented, it should be restored, of course. 213.101.13.26 21:52, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

New report on Salafism mentions the Bellevue Mosque

https://www.fhs.se/download/18.7df9907163ed7475b4abe94/1530198487005/F%C3%B6rsvarsh%C3%B6gskolan.%20Mellan%20salafism%20och%20salafistisk%20jihadism_v2.pdf?utm_source=website&utm_medium=pressrelease&utm_campaign=salafismsalafistiskjihadism (in Swedish)

A report from the Swedish Defence University reports on the mosque, pages 95-97. I'm pressed for time so I put it here for later use by myself or someone else. Sjö (talk) 06:11, 1 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
