One mention in the Ulama Conference on Population and Development does not establish notability - indeed, it says absolutely nothing about the paper.Proabivouac 03:26, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
- In case you didnt notice, Saudi Gazette has a ISSN on the page. THAT is the evidence of notability.
- And the source I provided clearly states Al-Sanad was the editor in chief of the newspaper in 2005. Please stop lying. John Vandenberg 03:51, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
- That is a claim about Sanad's resume, not about the paper. This is similar to your use of this higher-profile source on Peace TV, which you use to state that Israr Ahmad was on its staff - perhaps he is, but the source doesn't say that or anything else about Peace TV.Proabivouac 04:12, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, a source is being used to verify a fact. That is all it is doing. Please point out what guideline or policy you believe is being violated. John Vandenberg 04:30, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
- I've added a reference to a significantly more credible (though hardly ideal, for starters it is unsigned) source, which establishes Saudi Gazette's notability at the same time that it casts its reliability into doubt.Proabivouac 07:05, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
- Yea, I saw that but didnt see how that was beneficial. I guess if it helps the reader verify reliability/notability, its a good thing. Over on Talk:Zakir Naik, Itaqallah (talk · contribs) has pointed out [1], [2] and [3]. I haven't considered what can be done with them yet. (the .gov one is not loading for me atm, but I seem to be having problem accessing half the net atm). John Vandenberg 13:10, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

The Saudi Gazette had Western journalists working on it throughout the 1980s. I know -- I was one of them! I'll try to find a published source for this -- I may have cuttings from the paper which will suffice.Manormadman (talk) 06:24, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
