Copyright violation edit

The bulk of this page seems to be a direct copy of the Bill of Rights written by Asra Nomani and published in 'Standing Alone in Mecca'. There isn't even any commentary which could suggest a fair use defence. I don't think it can stay in the article. - Eron Talk 18:20, 14 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

The copyvio portion has been edited out now. - Eron Talk 23:04, 20 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
As an outsider coming in much later in the discussion, I don't think I agree. First of all, the Bill of Rights is a very small portion of the book. Second, the "work" amounts to a very small list on its own, that would be one sentence or paragraph at best, if the "women have an Islamic right to..." repetitions were removed. Its use is no weightier than quoting a politician or a crime witness in the newspaper. Third, I strongly believe that the author would call inclusion in Wikipedia fair use, rather than assert her "copyright" against it. A fair use "defence" is not needed when there's nothing to defend against. Therefore, I shall return the list to the article, and let this statement be my "fair use rationale".

"Missing information" tag edit

I've tagged this article as needing information about its impact. I wouldn't try to delete it, but it really doesn't contain any assertion of notability. Laudable though these goals may be, there's no indication that this "bill of rights" has done anything. Maybe some of the references labeled as external links can help, but without footnotes, it's hard to tell. --BDD (talk) 20:46, 12 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
