Notice

The article Arroyo v. Tucker, 372 F. Supp. 764 (E.D. Pa. 1974) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

It is not clear that this district court decision is of historical or continuing interest--it would seem to need later references to show that. .

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Bias in Ramadan Article

[edit]

This article shows a pattern of bias which facilitates anti-Muslim racism. The article includes a large amount of information that is, at best, tangentially related to the topic of Ramadan. Not only do these inclusions contribute very little to knowledge about fasting in Islam, the inclusions are also overwhelmingly negative. The bias is most apparent when juxtaposed to the absence of such irrelevant negative information on Wiki pages which cover comparative topics (in this case Fasting-Generally, Christmas, or Hanukkah)

Example (Fasting-Generally) This inclusive 36 page ~1300 sentence article covers fasting across a large spectrum which includes religion, culture, politics, and health. Under the subheading 1.4 entitled Complications, only one sentence speaks of the negative health effects of fasting. Overall, within a 14888 word article less than 21 words (one sentence) is dedicated to the possible negative health consequences of fasting. This is a negativity ratio of .0014%

Ramadan Compare this to the 21 page (7144 word) article on fasting during Ramadan. In the ~800 sentence entry, the article (correctly) establishes the exemption of pregnant women from fasting in four different places. This exemption is bolstered by footnotes from both medical and religious sources. Despite establishing this exemption, the article goes on to dedicate 21 sentences (315 words) to publishing the studies of negative health outcomes of Muslim women who don’t follow this exemption and fast while pregnant. These inclusions amount to a negativity ratio of .044%. Publishing articles on the negative outcomes of pregnant Muslim women who fast during Ramadan, despite establishing that they are not required to fast, add no new relevant information about Ramadan to the overall article. The negative inclusions however provide fodder for a general campaign of anti-Muslim racism, by unfairly associating the month of Muslim fasting with harm towards Muslim women.

Conclusion In short the article on Ramadan is half the length of the article on Fasting-Generally, yet it contains 31% more negative health related information than the general article on fasting across all religions (including Islam). I have not included the negativity which was brought about by the earlier inclusion of crime and criminality among Muslims during Ramadan. In order to promote tolerance and decrease bias I have deleted the irrelevant negative inclusions. Rdjackso (talk) 21:08, 2 April 2022 (UTC)rdjackso[reply]

Your recent item has been moved to draftspace as it is currently not ready for publication as an encyclopedic entry. Biographical articles cannot be accepted without sourcing (see the linked page for more information) and would also suggest a review of the guide to article creation and the manual of style. Please develop the item in draft and submit for review when completed. Please do not move to mainspace without significant improvement or it could be proposed for deletion. Thank you.
