Secret admirer
[edit]Just so you know, there's a single purpose account that's unfortunately been stalking you and indiscriminately reverting your edits. ITAQALLAH 21:08, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
- Perhaps. Or maybe there was solicitation. It's difficult to know for sure. ITAQALLAH 10:32, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
- Wait and see how things develop. No point doing anything if this was a one-off (it might just be a throw-away account). If it recurs with either that account or another then action might be needed. ITAQALLAH 23:16, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
As a result of the above-named Arbitration case, the Arbitration committee has acknowledged long-term and persistent problems in the editing of articles related to Israel, Palestine, and related conflicts. As a result, the Committee has enacted broad editing restrictions, described here and below.
- Any uninvolved administrator may, on his or her own discretion, impose sanctions on any editor working in the area of conflict if, despite being warned, that editor repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behavior, or any normal editorial process.
- The sanctions imposed may include blocks of up to one year in length; bans from editing any page or set of pages within the area of conflict; bans on any editing related to the topic or its closely related topics; restrictions on reverts or other specified behaviors; or any other measures which the imposing administrator believes are reasonably necessary to ensure the smooth functioning of the project.
- Prior to any sanctions being imposed, the editor in question shall be given a warning with a link to this decision; and, where appropriate, should be counseled on specific steps that he or she can take to improve his or her editing in accordance with relevant policies and guidelines.
- Discretionary sanctions imposed under the provisions of this decision may be appealed to the imposing administrator, the appropriate administrators' noticeboard (currently WP:AE), or the Committee.
These editing restrictions may be applied to any editor for cause, provided the editor has been previously informed of the case. This message is to so inform you. This message does not necessarily mean that your current editing has been deemed a problem; this is a template message crafted to make it easier to notify any user who has edited the topic of the existence of these sanctions.
Generally, the next step, if an administrator feels your conduct on pages in this topic area is disruptive, would be a warning, to be followed by the imposition of sanctions (although in cases of serious disruption, the warning may be omitted). Hopefully no such action will be necessary.
This notice is only effective if logged here.

Zakir Naik
[edit]Bless Sins, Continual removal of properly sourced content is even more severe violation, and such behavior will result in the person removing the content being blocked, not the one trying to maintain a neutral balanced Wikipedia article.
- "I don't wish to start another line of argument but it is not clear to me Bless sins that (aside the unsubstantiated bit on "stirring up contraversy") these remarks are necessarily negative. As I have said five countries actually have the death penalty for apostasy and comments along the lines that the US is the biggest sponsor of terrorism are commonplace on main stream media in the UK, millions of people refer to the US as "great Satan" or similar. Do you think Zakir would disown them? The issue for me is more undue weight. What he said is reasonably shown on google video but no one seems to have written about it so it just isn't consequential. --BozMo 07:25, 15 June 2008 (UTC)"
I will addres the"issue" of undue weightage shortly. Apart from that there is not question of content having unreliable sources or the content being negative. - Agnistus (talk) 07:49, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
Why the negative/positive nature doesn't matter: "Wikipedia standards states that fact must be presented as fact in a dry insipid un-opinionated manner. It is not up to you to decide that the "fact" which you consider to be "defamatory", can be removed and everything else can be allowed to stay. In fact editors, are not even supposed to judge weather some "fact" is positive, negative, defamatory, e.t.c. Instead the job of a BLP is to present fact as it is, without any modification or personal opinion interspersed." - Agnistus (talk) 07:50, 15 June 2008 (UTC)
Your input on WP:RS/Noticeboard#Are_university_professor's_blogs_RS?
[edit]I read the comment you put on Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard#Are_university_professor's_blogs_RS? here[1] and I've read a response to your comment that user:ImperfectlyInformed added here[2].
I believe user:ImperfectlyInformed was referring to where WP:SPS reads "Self-published material may, in some circumstances, be acceptable when produced by an established expert on the topic of the article whose work in the relevant field has previously been published by reliable third-party publications." This would seem to suggest (to me and, it seems, to user:ImperfectlyInformed) that www.alicedreger.com would be count as a reliable source only within her field of expertise, but like any other self-published source otherwise (as you pointed out).
Your reaction on the noticeboard, in either direction, would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

GA articles
[edit]Salam brother,
Did you pay attention to the last comments[4]. Don't you want to work on the article anymore?
By the way, Battle of the trench has accepted as GA article. Now I've nominated Al-Kindi. God bless you.--Seyyed(t-c) 03:08, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
- Salam Alaykum, I suggest working as GA reviewer for a wile. This help you to understand it better.--Seyyed(t-c) 01:57, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
- I suggest starting with War and military articles, such as Battle of Vimy Ridge or Battle of Trenton. You can review an article about Pakistani scientist, Salimuzzaman Siddiqui. There is also another article, Moses, which has not been nominated yet, but we agreed to nominate it on Judaism wikiproject. Now, which one do you prefer?--Seyyed(t-c) 04:48, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Allegations of apartheid deletion notification
[edit]Some time ago, you participated in a deletion discussion concerning Allegations of Chinese apartheid. I thought you might like to know that the parent article, Allegations of apartheid, was recently nominated for deletion. Given that many of the issues that have been raised are essentially the same as those on the article on which you commented earlier, you may have a view on whether Allegations of apartheid should be kept or deleted. If you wish to contribute to the discussion, please see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Allegations of apartheid (fifth nomination). -- ChrisO (talk) 17:54, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
Re:
[edit]Funnily enough, I was thinking about this today. I think an article with the title "Views of..." or "Appraisals of..." - which documents views across the spectrum- be they critical, revisionist (i.e. academic but minority theories), or more judgement oriented perspectives. Articles about a single perspective are rarely ever likely to be neutral. ITAQALLAH 22:40, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
Breaking Portal:Discrimination
[edit]Your repeated edit to Portal:Discrimination is breaking the proper operation of the page to show a rotating selected picture each time it is loaded or refreshed.

Islamic military jurisprudence
[edit]Salam brother
Did you solve former problems and have you reached consensus.--Seyyed(t-c) 04:51, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
Assalamualaykum,
If you find some time, I'd recommend taking a look at this peculiar thing of an article that I just stumbled upon today. Began working on it, but I feel its a bit too 'unnerving' in a way, especially the title. I've put up a 'move' proposal on the talk page Talk:Divisions_of_Islam#Move_Article, but thought the a few more opinions might be better. 'Abd el 'Azeez (talk) 11:36, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

I'll be happy to look at the article again, in a day or two. In the meantime, can you please fix the first sentence of the article. "When the broke off of" doesn't make any sense.

Question about Amir al-Mu'minin
[edit]Hello. I cannot register an account (because I rarely use Wikipedia as it is), but I am writing a book on Islamic Caliphates, and I believe "WikiProject Islam" would be able to help, so I am asking you and others who has put their name on the "Expert Wikipedians in Islamic issues" list who might be able to help. I am about the title "Amir al-Mu'minin" which many Caliphs claim and which is the standard Arab-style Caliphate title. What I want to know is: Do everyone who uses the title "Amir al-Mu'minin", by extension, claim they are also the Caliph? So would the Morroco Sultan, Muhhamed Omar (leader of the Taliban), and the Sokoto Sultan, all implictly claiming the title of "Caliph" by claiming the title "Commander of the Believers"?
If you can help me with this question, that would be really helpful.--72.208.76.124 (talk) 01:24, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Qur'an as source on science
[edit]I have a science related question, arising from looking at Timeline of science and engineering in the Islamic world. The first few entries are all about the Qur'an and the hadiths. I'm not familiar with the subject, but I do know that similar claims about the bible are generally ignored by historians of Western science and technology. In your opinion, do those entries belong in an article about science in the Islamic world, or are they more properly confined to the existing articles Qur'an and science and Islam and science, with a "See also" link in the timeline article?

Hi, I was just looking to tidy up the article when I ran into a the section Sunni view of the Sahaba#Other Sahaba. In particular the line "Those who gave bay`at al-ridwân under the Tree and those Ansar distinguished for the two pacts preceding Emigration (al-`aqabatayn);" In this case does "bay`at al-ridwân under the Tree" refer to the Pledge of the Tree and I assume that the emigration is Hijra (Islam)? Also would bay`at al-ridwân and al-`aqabatayn be valid redirects. Thanks. Enter CambridgeBayWeather, waits for audience applause, not a sausage 05:27, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
