Other than the fact that Mr. Mansur is a rather conspicuous professor, a writer, a Director of the Center for Islamic Pluralism, and a consultant, the article does not say a word about the man himself: his bio data are missing, and the reader is left ignoring his ideas and accomplishments, if any, and thus is also left in doubt about whether this person even meets notability criteria. The article is in bad need of enhancements, and I don't know is there's a tag for that. --AVM (talk) 17:59, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I often see that designation, as here regarding the Robert Fulford reference, and have always wondered what it could be -- after all, who is that prescient? Makes me wonder whether it's like the abuse of "citation needed", meant to declare an agenda. In any case, I input the author and title in my DuckDuckGo and instantly got a very live link to the article at Fulford's website: http://www.robertfulford.com/2009-11-21-mansur.html (retrieved 20181128). I probably should put that in the article, but I want to leave "alive" the question: just what is a "permanent dead link"? alacarte (talk) 18:37, 28 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
