Muslim Aid article

Thanks for creating a new account, and for your edits to Muslim Aid. However, the article still looks promotional in tone, as it consists only of positive statements about the charity, and lacks references to multiple independent third-party reliable sources, as required by the verifiability policy. In particular, it omits any reference to any of the controversies regarding the charity in recent years.

Unfortunately, an entity's own statements can only be used to support statements about what they say about themselves (eg statements of the form "Muslim Aid say that their mission is to..."), rather than absolute statements of fact (eg. "Muslim Aid's mission is...") Could you possibly help either reword these statements, or supply independent third party cites to support them?

You can find more about all of these policies at Wikipedia's Neutral Point of View, Verifiability and Reliable Sources policy pages.

Yes I totally agree, and I guess its a work in progress to make the article more encycloepedic. I will work on it today.

Best regards,

Tidied up formatting

I've tidied up the formatting of the article to match Wikipedia's generally formatting guidelines. However, the text of the article won't last long in this form unless you can give multiple independent third-party reliable sources that back up its assertions. -- The Anome (talk) 22:42, 30 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
