Table on Poverty in PakistanHi, Thanks very much for your edits to Poverty in Pakistan. Tabulating the unemployment data was a great idea. However, it seems to render rather poorly in browser (offset and a little misaligned). I tried two browsers (firefox & konqueror) and it was crappy in both. I don't know much about tables & wikicode so would appreciate it if you could take another shot at it to render it better. Thanks again.Hkelkar 09:23, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
TestBro, i am trying to creat a way to standardize hadith, Qur'an and scholar quotes. This, since wikipedia has stated that standardization is wanted and since all three named sources are very frequently quoted in Islam related articles, mostly since it is and Islamic way of presenting information. I have made a test that i fear needs much improvement, and i do not dare to show it to a wider audience, fearing they would not give it a fair chance. So how about you taking a look a the middle part of this article and give some suggestions on how we can work on standardizing this issues? Thanks and Peace. --Striver 23:22, 23 September 2006 (UTC) Signpost updated for September 25th.

Ralbot 17:49, 17 October 2006 (UTC) Could you undelete an article for me, pleaseHi Gren Someone has deleted Brighton & Hove Palestine Solidarity Campaign on the grounds that a "prod" had expired. I moved this article two or three days ago from an article with similar title but no use of capital letters (even for Palestine). And I wikified it a bit. I didn't notice any prod on it. I am not very familiar with the deletion policy, except I have voted in a few AFDs. However, I understand that any admin can undelete an article that was deleted after a prod and I hope you can do just that for this one. If it then has to go through an AFD, OK. Article subject is a genuine organisation and comes under the WikiProject Brighton & Hove. Thanks. Itsmejudith 22:07, 19 October 2006 (UTC) Ibn HazmHi Gren, My concept was that Ibn Hazm works fine to line and bring people to the site, but his real name should be right at the top in the first line. It's ok to lead with Ibn Hazm something along the lines Ibn Hazm's is a shortened version of his full name xxxx, before you deal with what he was need get past as follows: However in the infobox I think you should mention his full name and just bold the ibn Hazm. Also why did you remove the image as well.--Tigeroo 04:58, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
[5] (actually most of the article) is a pretty good copyvio of the article on Encyclopedia of Islam on tahrif. But I haven't done that :). As you can see from the section Ibn Hazm was more a secular scholar than a pious Muslim in that case (well maybe not). He was very influential on Muslim polemics: "Ibn Hazm’s impact on later Muslim polemics was great, and the themes which he raised with regard to tahrif and other polemical ideas were updated only slightly by some later authors." --Aminz 02:43, 27 October 2006 (UTC) Signpost updated for October 23rd.

Ralbot 06:21, 24 October 2006 (UTC) JihadDear Gren, I'm not well enough read to know how jihad was used in the earliest Islamic texts, and when the "two meanings of jihad" became a common theme. I think that would require knowledge of Arabic and acquaintance with a lot of the original material. Sorry I took so long to get back to you. I wish to heck that we had some real studies of the development of Islamic religious and historical writing based on comparison of actual manuscripts rather than relying on recently published editions in Arabic that may or may not accurately reflect the original. Someone should collect scans of every old manuscript in the world and give them the Distributed Proofreader treatment. No more travelling to distant archives and mucking about with disintegrated paper. It should all be on the web, in the universal library! Dreamer :) Hope you're doing OK personally, I'll email. Zora 02:47, 28 October 2006 (UTC) I have to express my admiration because you were able to defend my picture much better than I could. The more I see the attempts to parameterize quality (and beauty) the more I am convinced that appreciating pictures is mainly a subjective process. In the present case, I have learnt that lantana is some kind of a plague with little sympathy from botanists. Also, this is not an extraordinary photo, I agree (just a 'correct' one). Like many of the pictures in Wikipedia FP. And unlike the marvellous pictures of Moondigger. Thank you. - Alvesgaspar 23:35, 28 October 2006 (UTC) Signpost updated for October 30th.

(Talk) 12:05, 1 November 2006 (UTC) RequestHi Gren, May we (User: Aminz& User:Truthspreader) ask you to join us in the dispute in the Reforms under Islam (610-661) article. We need your help and can not stand it if you don't accept it :) There is a dispute over reliability of certain sources per WP:RS and using primary sources. Please, please help. --Aminz 09:39, 12 November 2006 (UTC) Please see the talk page. --Aminz 12:00, 12 November 2006 (UTC) Thanks so much Gren. Please, please stay around. I can not come in agreement with some editors there. Please stay. Your comments was very useful. Let me start from the beginning. The thing is that this article was developed kind of strange. While I was reading the books written on Islam, I noticed that they talk about reforms of Islam, by which they mean new women rights, slavery etc etc. At the same time, the Pope controversy came who said that Islam has brought nothing to humanity except violence. So, I tried to document what Islam has done. But since this ideas were developing as part of the Muhammad article, I confined myself to places where the author explicitly says "Reforms". In case of literary reforms, I asked on the talk page of Muhammad, if "literary" reform is defined; the response was positive. So, I read the "literature and the Qur'an" article. The Arabic scholars have a very good attitude (please see Quran#Literary Structure of the Qur'an). In fact, except for one or two scholars (19 century), named explicitly by that article, the vast majority of scholars have a quite positive view. The discussion is around Muslim claim that the Qur'an is miraclous, far above the level that the Qur'an just brought new literary structures. Re: "not only did the Qur'an create an entirely new linguistic corpus", yeah I believe it caused a reform in the sense that any other literary book can cause. Prof. Izutsu, I believe, proposed this and it is very interesting. As with any other poem book which takes words and uses them in new meanings (and in new relations with other words), the Qur'an does that but in an incomparably higher extent. It was required to do that since the language forms the way we think. The Qur'an reshuffled the relation of words with each other, took words and used them in new meanings and eventually made a linguist structure in which the word "Allah" is in center. We can just talk about this but it not so easy to do that. It requires skills. And kind of unsure about your comment on 610-661 in Arabia. I was reading an article titled "The quest for historical Muhammad" by F.E. Peters(International Journal of Middle East Studies (1991) p.291-315 ). There he said that the whole problem is our inadequate knowledge about pre-islamic Arabia. Even more, he said that unlike much debate in academic about finding the words Jesus actually said, the Qur'an is generally considered to be the words spoken by Muhammad. I might be wrong and Wansbrough and Crone be not in significant minority. The reason that this article quotes a lot is two-fold: 1. Some editors, the same who are now disputing the Reform article, (to my mind falsely) accused me of misrepresenting the sources. So, I tried to quote more. 2. Some editor, again the same, come and reduce the prose of the sentences: for example if lewis says the islamic idea "represented a very considerable advance on the practice of both the Greco-Roman and the ancient Iranian world" ; they might first make "very considerable" -> "considerable" and later just remove it. These kinds of changes. 3. The last but maybe one of the most important reasons is my poor english. I can only hardly rewrite; much easier for me to quote. It will also be at least less painful to see other editors buchering it without any good reason. By the European opponents of slavery, I mean the abolishonists in 19th century. The point of the passage is that Slavery in Muslim lands was much better than slavery in Europe even untill when it was abolished. Lewis for example writes: "the position of the domestic slave in Muslim society was in most respects better than in either classical antiquity or the nineteenth-century Americas". In answer to your question about definition of "reform", I should say, with few exceptions, I used passage in which the author explicitly says "reforms". But I am open to any suggestion. I'll read your comment again, I may have missed some points. --Aminz 18:44, 12 November 2006 (UTC) Regarding the "notes" and "references" sections, you are right. We should correct it. And BTW, I haven't added the quotation from Schimmel (1992) p. 67. But can find the source. Cheers, --Aminz 00:38, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
Gren, I've posted something on Judith talk page, please read it. In order to show that I have NOT misrepresented the sources(to be more precise, that wasn't my intention; I might have been careless in some cases which I don't know), I am willing to email any source I've used(i can scan the encyclopedia (encyclopedia of Qur'an; encyclopedia of Islam) articles)--Aminz 07:07, 13 November 2006 (UTC) The first quote from bernard lewis: article online: http://www.nybooks.com/articles/4557 complete quote:

I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article List of religious leaders in 1203, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at Talk:List of religious leaders in 1203. You may remove the deletion notice, and the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

Ralbot 07:21, 3 January 2007 (UTC) Muhammad imagesYou are obviously correct that the tradition of depicting him is not as important as calligraphy or aniconism. I believe that is a very valid and important point, but at the same time I don't think that these facts should make up the whole equation, when we are deciding which images that should be included in the Muhammad article. Another point that I believe is important to consider, is that depictions of Muhammad, especially in important historical settings, usually has a higher information value and is typically more useful, especially in sections regarding specific events that took place during his life. One example could be the "Isra and Miraj" section. What do you think adds most to the average readers understanding of what actually happened (or what Muhammad imagined happened) during that episode: this or this? -- Karl Meier 14:14, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

Father Judge High School PageI don't understand how this is non-notable. I graduated from this high school a long time ago and was adding members of the Model UN who were there when I was at the school as the list was comprised mostly of existing students and recent alumni. I understand that you know nothing about this school so you wouldn't understand what is and isn't notable, but with that said I don't understand why you take it upon yourself to ruin a page that you know nothing about. I'd appreciate it if the page was restored. One final thing, it's obviously impossible to cite resources for articles like this one, which isn't widely publicized except in local news, etc. 00:40, 3 February 2007 (UTC) "I know more about Father Judge than you might suspect and I would like to make it clear that if any school started listing the names of "notable" MUN team members then I would remove it." Please, show me exactly how much you know about Father Judge. You know so much about it that you claim that it is in South Philly in the next quote. Wikipedia is on a quest to be more than just a paper encyclopedia by letting information like Father Judge High School on here. But it is people like you that are trying to prevent anyone from giving any information about it on the page.
I see the edit and I'd like to know why you removed it. If anything this is one of the most legitimate reasons to post anything about Father Judge. As an alumni and someone still involved with the school I know this to be a true story - once again something you aren't going to read in the history books, but it is true. Interesting that you are so adamant about verifying reliable sources. Besides claiming to know everything about Father Judge and not even knowing where it is located, you are going around tearing down sites without just cause. You are operating on the assumption that everything is a high school kid trying to do something stupid. It seems that you could just as easily be a high school kid who is just going around trying to ruin people's wikipedia articles by tearing down true stories about them. How is a story about a 1960s controversy not fodder for this site. I actually find it quite fascinating. Why don't you leave the editing of this page to someone who knows what they are doing when it comes to Judge.

Why do you tear down some stuff that doesn't have sources cited yet you leave other stuff up and just put the note that a citation is needed? If you really have no expertise on an area to decipher between what is and is not noteworthy and you have been all over me about citing every single thing I put on wikipedia, why don't you just take every single uncited item down or leave every one up? Anything different seems to make no sense. Hcrane 00:20, 7 February 2007 (UTC) I guess we just disagree on this one. You insist that certain things aren't notable that are notable in my opinion. The fact that someone wrote a book seems to be notable to me. After all, not too many people write books, especially high school teachers, the fact that it was not published is just a fact that really has nothing to do with the notability of the matter.Hcrane 16:43, 7 February 2007 (UTC) Thank you for your comments on the FA nomination forCampaign history of the Roman military at the FA page Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Campaign history of the Roman military.

There seems to be a pitched battle about whether he should be debunked or not and I have landed in the middle of it. Specifically, is it OK to cite the fact that Quackwatch has criticised him? I only found the article in the backlog of articles to wikify! I appreciate you might not have time and you might want to pass it to another admin, that's OK. I have listed it on the [WP:BLP]] noticeboard but still had no reply. Thanks. Itsmejudith 00:55, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
Boston MapHi, I made that map and posted it to wikipedia, thereby releasing it as CC-by-2.0. The big TIF on my website (radicalcartography.net) is a different image, which does indeed have a copyright sign. Does that answer the question? Citynoise 02:50, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images. For more information on using images, see the following pages: This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 05:04, 22 February 2007 (UTC) The material you re-added to the hudud page was wrong.

Plese reconsider your vote to delete Human rights in pre-Saddam IraqHi Grenavitar, I've just put a lot of work into improving Human rights in pre-Saddam Iraq so that the article is not now anything like what it was when you voted to delete but allow for recreation. Essentially, the article is recreated. I'm still not satisfied with the article, but it has roughly the proper scope and many more reliable sources. I think what I've done shows that there's too much material out there to combine this article with anything else. Significant gaps remain and some subjects should have footnotes from more sources, but I think the article is several steps toward what it should be. Noroton 22:07, 21 March 2007 (UTC) Thanks .

I agree that most images should be 300px wide, I'm not sure why I did it 300px long, that was a mistake on my part, and I've been doing 300px wide all the other images I've done (at least, I think so). So I'll re-do that one to 300px wide. There was a little discussion here and when I tried to get the 300px wide (and my justification for 300px), which I can't find at the moment, but it prettymuch went nowhere, though some supported and some opposed. My main argument is that WP:IMAGE states no image should be bigger than 550px on an article, but most are used as thumbnails, where then the largest they are is 300px (hence, why I "choose" 300px). I hope this answers all your questions. --MECU≈talk 14:10, 24 March 2007 (UTC) Image:Order4.jpgHi, I rescaled the image per criteria 2 and 3 of WP:FU#Policy.

Please note that where I had used the source more than once, I split up the page numbers by a backslash (for example, in All Tomorrow's Parties I entered "pages=107 / 109-110", 107 referring to the first citation and 109-110 referring to the second). I am not sure if this is the correct protocol for doing such a thing, but it's the only method that really entered my mind.

Credit cast.Hi! I'm Shshshsh, or Shahid if you want. I see earlier you introduced your oppose for crediting Rani Mukerji before Preity Zinta in the page of Veer Zaara. The reason was that Zinta is the heroine in this film while Mukerji is the supporting. The case is that Mukerji is senior to Zinta. That's why in the film credits she was credited first. User: Zora and User: Plumcouch decided to credit the films to IMDB format. The problem now is that IMDB is very changeable. Users there mess with cast every day and it is not suitable for Wikipedia anymore. I think that we have to find another reliable site which has entries for every Bollywood film. We have to go according to something. Film credits are not suitable either. Here on Wikipedia we have to give information about some film, and this includes of crediting actors as per main characters and then supporting ones. Very much of filmmakers use credits as per seniority and other commitments to their actors. I think supporting actor/actress can be credited before the leading if and only if he/she is senior to the main actor/actress in more than 10 years (like in case of Devdas). User: Shez 15 credited to IMDB and IMDB changes its casts every day (I saw that for myself). They also changed the Veer-Zaara page and now the confusion is here again. SRK (Veer) and Preity (Zaara) have to be credited first, but now Rani Mukerji (Saamiya) is in the center. Completely unfair for Zinta. Apart from it, there are few films in advanced shooting statuses, and IMDB has not added them yet. That's probelm. My request from you is to reply to my message in the Veer Zaara talk page. Yes, I also posted a message to Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Indian cinema. Please reply if you can. Thanks and best regards, --Shshshsh 17:13, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
HI againThanx for replying. The problem is that we don't always know how the movie cediting goes. Here on Wikipedia we have to give information for the film. Supporting cast is not important. The matter is that we have to credit the main characters ahead of the supporting. As I said, filmmakers credit as per seniority, appearances order etc. Users like Zora, Plumcouch decided to use IMDB, since film credits are not matching wikipedia, and not everyone knows the credits. As you said, in the movie poster we have Preity first. That's why Preity has to be credited first. You said, it will make troubles and fights with who is more notable. That's why we have to go according to something, and it is not film credits. If we decide to use film credits (and as I said most of us don't know the credits for every film), there will be a big speculation, since that's not a source, and we can't rely on words. We have to find a good net source. To use film credits is the last option, it will cause to big edit wars. We need to go as per something, exept the film, that's for sure (please see discussions of Zora, Pa7, Plumcouch and Haphar on the talk page). Your comment for the Veer Zaara talk page, now could cause that Shez_15 will change the credits automatically for all the pages. I'm so tired by edit wars. Thanks again, and best regards, --Shshshsh 19:19, 15 June 2007 (UTC)
HeyI believe you're wrong when you said Preity is casted before Rani on the DVD Cover. I own the DVD. And no cast is mentionned on the DVD Cover. Only the Synopsis is where they introduce SRK's name first, then Preity's and then Rani's in brackets which does not neccessarily mean the order. If you want order, see the movie. Go on the official website. Go on IMDB. I think you have some valid points. I believe it's the best way to follow IMDB, they'll be only minor objections which doesn't really matter like in the case of Veer-Zaara and Yuva. But when IMDB classifies every actor in a random order like in the case of Karan Arjun, then maybe watching the movie is the best option. Even then, I feel no one will open any discussions to the past movies. For recent movies, IMDB does a great job at classifying actors as in the movie as in the case of many films including Devdas and Veer-Zaara where one might object another way round. But following the commands of a film maker's wish is the best feasible option if one needs to move away from IMDB for some exceptions. Musicnmovies.com and youtube.com offers some of the most popular movies. And I think the problem is mainly with popular movies where people tend to change the cast. Here's the casting available for Veer-Zaara in the opening sequence of the movie at the 11th second. [23] - shez_15 I agree 100%Posters are unreliable as in another poster, Rani is casted before Preity: [24] So, official casting can only be classified by the film itself. I can work on some popular movies and put the official cast on each talk page. And for the supporting cast, let's just follow IMDB. Other articles can follow IMDB too since not every film can be found on the net with proof. And since all the previous films are casted according to IMDB. So, let's not create a hassle by changing to another site sicne IMDB is the biggest movie database. I suggest the rule of official casting as in the movie and for movies which are not found on the net, we'll go for IMDB. Do you agree? Thanks for your time. The only fuss created with this article is that shshsh tends to adore Preity Zinta and wants her casted on top. But this is an encyclopedia where only official rules count, not personal opinions. - shez_15 Hi againSorry to say but I found your discussion with Shez a bit pointless. So he found credits for pair of films. So what? If you found movie source for 4-5 movies or even or even 100 movies, it would be unfair for the rest of the movies. So it was only one reason. Seniority is the second one. The third is that we can't go according to mixed formats: one as per film (and we cna find only 10 to 20 film credits in the net), another as per IMDB and another as per official website (which is also unreliable, cause they don't use film credits). We must use one crediting template. We'll keep only IMDB now, until I find some reliable source. Shez began to credit to film credits, and I think it is also not right toward me, since I was a part of this discussion, and your decision had to come over me too (I hope you're not angry I'm saying that). Thanks, best regards, --Shshshsh 22:11, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

I turned also to Wikipedia: RM to redirect it to Rekha, and they shifted my request to incomplete list, since they found this request as controversial request which could cause to troubles. Their request from me was to make a prior dicussion on her talk page. Please help me Grenavitar. It can take ages until this article would be redirected as it actually should be.

After Midnight 0001 13:47, 8 July 2007 (UTC) Rekha 2Hi, I don't think that the fact that this article wasn't moved again means necessarily consensus. Not many users worked on this page, and if someone came is only to improve a bit. Most of the users who worked on this page left WP and now are in Wikibreak (Zora, Ekantik). Since March, I've been trying to redirect it, And only now I decided to turn to WP:RM. The Sridevi page was also moved to Sridevi Kapoor and now it's Sridevi again. Take Madonna, Shakira etc, all of them appear here by their first name. Rekha should also be Rekha. All of her films, all the net sources, all the films here on Wikipedia refer to her by Rekha. That's why for me it is a bif deal. So I can't see another reason not to redirect it to its original status. If you can, please drop a line on her talk page. Maybe we could reach to consensus. Of course, if you agree with me. Thanks, best regards, --Shahid • Talk2me 21:22, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. 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 Wikipedia 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. Keysuc7 04:23, 15 November 2007 (UTC) Signpost updated for November 19th, 2007.

I would just like to point out that this picture is rare and difficult to take (see reasons mentioned at the nom). So would you please reconsider your vote as wikipedia FP criteria states that "Exceptions to this rule may be made for historical or otherwise unique images". Hope you change your mind, Regards Muhammad Mahdi Karim (talk) 13:01, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
FPC voteHi, could you please check your vote at Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/Image:Alhambra2001.jpg? You wrote Support, but your comments make me think you meant to oppose. Thanks. -- Coneslayer (talk) 14:00, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Andaz 1949 film poster.jpgThanks for uploading Image:Andaz 1949 film poster.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page. If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion.

I just received your comment regarding footnotes. I'll admit that I don't use as many footnote citations as I probably should, though I do include a list of all the sources I used for an article at its end. If you could use a specific article and point out where footnote citations with page numbers would be useful, it would really help me add in relevant footnotes in other articles.

Ralbot (talk) 08:20, 18 January 2008 (UTC)  Another editor has added the "{{prod}}" template to the article The War for Muslim Minds, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia 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 Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Muslims extremismactually it was an observation and a question not a personal attack, that is a completely and unbeatably true statement weather you realize it or not. The fact is that there are Islamists on this site that are very dangerous and violent and you know not weather all Muslims are like that or not, the religion is as a whole very extreme. The actions of Islamists should not be allowed to go unchallenged weather you agree or not Oxyman42 (talk) 20:51, 4 February 2008 (UTC) Wondering what do you think ofthis. Thanks --Be happy!! (talk) 22:05, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
actually you're missing the point Islamists should not be allowed to go unchallenged weather you agree or not and their actions were and are such that their edits weren't in any way NPOV and should not be tolerated. your actions against me are unacceptable and bigoted, presumably you won't want to complain when an Islamic state takes away your rights. please look at the actions of the Islams before replying Oxyman42 (talk) 00:18, 5 February 2008 (UTC) Signpost updated for February 4th, 2008.
