Islam: Beliefs and Institutions

Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article Islam: Beliefs and Institutions, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Misplaced Pages's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Misplaced Pages:What Misplaced Pages is not and Misplaced Pages:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Misplaced Pages or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

request your input in a consensus survey re 9/11

Dear Striver,

At Talk:9/11#defining consensus I started a survey to get a better picture on how editor's opinions are varying with respect to the following statement:

"The current form of the 9/11 article is at odds with the WP:NPOV policy, and the proposed inclusion of the fact that Michael Meacher alleges the US government of willfully not preventing the attacks, would make the article better, in stead of worse.

I would appreciate it when you could take a look.  — Xiutwel ♫☺♥♪ (speech has the power to bind the absolute) 17:00, 14 March 2008 (UTC)

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Hind bint Awf, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process.

Conspiracy

I just saw your little thing on Wesley Snipes I just wanted to make sure you understand that a conspiracy theorist and someone who discovers real conspiracy is not the same thing. If the crime is real then there is no theory, the people involved are investigating the conspiracy. A conspiracy is simply just a way to say criminal actions meant to be secret. Someone declaring that some celebrity is committing a crime is proposing the theory that they are, someone actually investigating if the celebrity is committing a crime is not theorizing anything. So the government doesn't act as a conspiracy theorist because they actually take action and look at proof, sometimes the proof shows conclusions to be incorrect. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.137.207.191 (talk) 04:34, 2 April 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of 180 AH

A tag has been placed on 180 AH requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Misplaced Pages:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Thisisborin9/contribs 05:26, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Al-Isaba fi tamyiz al-Sahaba.JPG

Thanks for uploading Image:Al-Isaba fi tamyiz al-Sahaba.JPG. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Misplaced Pages's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

The following images also have this problem:

Fair use rationale for Image:Al-Isaba_fi_tamyiz_al-Sahaba.JPG

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Al-Isaba_fi_tamyiz_al-Sahaba.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Misplaced Pages articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Misplaced Pages:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Misplaced Pages policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Misplaced Pages page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Rettetast (talk) 20:51, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

AH dates pages

Recently I stumbled across Category:Years AH, Category:Decades AH, and Category:Centuries AH, which appear to have been mostly written by you. Because of the sparseness of these categories and the stubbiness of most of the pages therein, I was thinking it might be better to simply merge these all into a single, unified timeline for Islam that contained AH and Gregorian dates. What do you think? TallNapoleon (talk) 20:59, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

Many articles link to those individual articles, for example death and birth dates. In my opinion, they are valid stubs that fill a legitimate function. --85.225.210.254 (talk) 08:04, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
We could have the links redirect to a united timeline. TallNapoleon (talk) 02:09, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
I see the AH timetable as no less valuable timescale as the western equivalent and reject the notion of reducing their scope, arguing that they should be expanded or at least keept as they are. It's not like wikipeidia is running out of pages. Further, even though this is the english wikipedia, it does not claim to be western centric. With this, i have said my thought, and you are free to do as you feel. I do not plan to become active in editing. --Striver - talk 10:40, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Abdul Basit Ahmad Uthman.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Abdul Basit Ahmad Uthman.jpg. You've indicated that the image meets Misplaced Pages's criteria for non-free content, but there is no explanation of why it meets those criteria. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. If you have any questions, please post them at Misplaced Pages:Media copyright questions.

Thank you for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 13:40, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

A user keeps removing the passage on Fatimah's death claiming that the sources are not reliable. I just need your opinion whenever you're available. Enforcing Neutrality (talk) 15:46, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
You are right, they are wrong, and i have quited wikipedia. However, you have my support in this question, and may quote me to that effect. As a long time editor and researcher on Shi'a based content, i assure that Al-Islam.org is among the very most RS for Shi'a view on the entire internet. --Striver - talk 20:34, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
I just hoped you could actively help me on this issue because some users want to keep a fairy tale version of Fatimah's death and remove all the sources, apparently with the support of User:Sa.vakilian and User:Aminz who don't seem to care about the issue.

July 2008

When adding links to material on an external site, please ensure that the external site is not violating the creator's copyright. Linking to websites that display copyrighted works is acceptable as long as the website's operator has created or licensed the work. Knowingly directing others to a site that violates copyright may be considered contributory infringement. This is particularly relevant when linking to sites such as YouTube, where due care should be taken to avoid linking to material that violates its creator's copyright. Misplaced Pages takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 17:18, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

You Tube

As you are probably aware, You Tube has recently come under fire in respect of its use of copyrighted works, because of this a review of You Tube linking from enwiki is under way.

It is noted that you linked to a number of You Tube videos from your user page. Sadly the (C) status for some of those video is doubtful or unclear. In general linking to material whose (C) Status is ambiguous, unclear or unconfirmed is highly discouraged on Misplaced Pages as reflects badly on both the project and the contributor.

If you are not the copyright owner in respect of the videos linked (including any music, screen-shots or computer generated content), please consider reading both (WP:EL) as well as You Tube's Terms and conditions.

If you don't own the copyright to the footage in entirety you should NOT upload it on You Tube either.

If you are indeed the copyright owner in entirety for the linked videos, please confirm this (via OTRS or appropriate means) for each and every video linked, and mention this in respect of the link(s) concerned.

Sfan00 IMG (talk) 17:18, 5 July 2008 (UTC)

this, a homemade video, is not a copyright violation. --Striver - talk 20:51, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
That was not the video in contention - but echo the sentiments... However, net neturality is a different although related issues from respecting copyrights. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 12:07, 8 July 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Al-Zubayr

A tag has been placed on Al-Zubayr requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines.

Notability of Harald Motzki

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Harald Motzki, by another Misplaced Pages user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Harald Motzki seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Harald Motzki, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to contact the bot operator if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself.

Diya al-Din al-Maqdisi

Hi Striver, I know you're not around much anymore so hopefully you will see this message. You created the article about Diya al-Din al-Maqdisi, but there isn't very much information there.

Recent edits on Safiyya bint Huyayy

Recently few sections of article have been removed. These sections were based on Martin Lings' work, reason cited was that Lings is not a historian and was just a writer.

But same article quotes Wafa Sultan who is a psychatriat.

The difference seems to be is that Lings quotation were in support of Muslim view while Wafa's are against.

I think a discussion is needed over this issue.

Speedy deletion nomination of Thomas McElwain

A tag has been placed on Thomas McElwain requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. — dαlus 10:38, 21 November 2009 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Umm Kulthum bint Ali

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Umm Kulthum bint Ali requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Oddbodz (talk) 15:11, 3 June 2011 (UTC)

Your contributed article, Dispatchment to Edam

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, Dispatchment to Edam. First, thank you for your contribution; Misplaced Pages relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Expedition of Abu Qatadah ibn Rab'i al-Ansari (Batn Edam). Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Misplaced Pages. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Expedition of Abu Qatadah ibn Rab'i al-Ansari (Batn Edam) - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Misplaced Pages's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Misplaced Pages looks forward to your future contributions. Al-Andalusi (talk) 21:01, 2 October 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Non-Muslim view of Umar

Hello, Striver, and thanks for your contributions to Misplaced Pages!

I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you worked on, Non-Muslim view of Umar, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:

  1. edit the page
  2. remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
  3. save the page

It helps to explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on the Help Desk. Thanks again for contributing!Template:Z79 Wiqi 07:14, 9 November 2011 (UTC)

Cheer up

For my part, I read your front-page, and I'd be sad if you were to give up.

I've had my run-ins with the Wahhabis on here myself; my point of maximum unamusement was at how they keep warping the Hasan al-Basri article, on which I spent much time (and really, really did make an effort to use modern scholarship). But the history of that article speaks for itself. Those who care can read it, for the atheists; for the Christians, Jesus knows it; for the Shi`a, God knows it (and so does Husayn).
