What is the purpose of this article?

This article by its content and timing appears to be nothing more than "anti-propaganda" propaganda. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Danleywolfe (talk • contribs) 18:58, 27 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This entire article should be summarily deleted...it is meaningless and just propaganda. A bunch of Muslims get angry over a youtube video (reportedly) lol....should that justify an encyclopedia article? How completely ridiculous. Lets have an article citing every place on earth people get mad over racism, or homophobia, or atheism, or name your religion. Every day there is a protest somewhere, people get mad over stuff...whoopdee doo, to think that justifies a sourced article is blithering stupidity. Lets make an article citing all "Black Lives matter" protests in the United States...every single one of them. Really? Welcome to planet earth...welcome to humanity...full of angry people, on a daily basis. Remove this article from Wikipedia, it has no rational purpose. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.157.14.9 (talk) 07:45, 11 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Concur. Danleywolfe and 73.157.14.9 have it right. This is the worst of Wikipedia. 2.50.17.144 (talk) 10:34, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Misleading beginning of entry. =

The edit of Oct 8th 2106 seems to be a "hack" of the article. The grammar is wrong but so is the content. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.133.252.209 (talk) 12:31, 9 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Off-topic and unclear connection to topic

I came across this article by accident, nowhere in the lead is any connection to Innocence of Muslims established and half the content seems to have no connection ... or if there is a connection, it isn't made clear. Pincrete (talk) 20:06, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Read the lede? This article is chronicling protests against the film. The 'connection' is that the protesters didn't like it. What exactly is unclear about that? (Serious question, not a trolly one.) SnowFire (talk) 20:27, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
