Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page edit

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

Requested move 18 August 2017 edit

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: page moved. Closed as a non-controversial technical request. Anyone seeking to revert within a reasonable time period (long enough for this to not have become the stable title), can place a request on my talk page or at WP:RM/TR and the move can be reverted.

Shia Family LawShia Personal Status Law – This law is referred to as the "Shia Personal Status Law" in both the USAID translation and in a case study by the scholar Astri Suhrke (When More is Less pp. 206ff). The main reason this article exists is because of the international backslash in the aftermath of the bill's passing and signing in February-March 2009, and the leaking of a critical UNIFEM report, with "consequent loss of nuance" according to Suhrke. It seems "Shia Family Law" is a term invented by the western press, whereas "Shia Personal Status Law" is more technically correct. Uglemat (talk) 17:35, 18 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
