 Tips
  • Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
  • It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
  • If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Sign your messages with four tildes (~~~~), be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
  • When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
  • If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
  • Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, Doug Weller talk 17:54, 20 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Why did you fix the url to a racist website instead of removing it? edit

I’m talking about your edit at Criticism of Islam. It was obviously racist ant not a reliable source. It should have been removed, which I’ve done. Doug Weller talk 17:57, 20 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Oh, I see
I checked it out, and the references it made were correct (although now that you mention it, the way it presents the evidence was racist)
Thank you! (I am not really clear on removing sources, so I appreciate you pointing it out)
P.S. Maybe it would be better if we leave the citations from the article only? LedaThemis (talk) 09:36, 21 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. But I don't understand you comment about leaving the citations. Doug Weller talk 11:43, 21 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
I was referring to the citations in the article
The Life of Muhammad: Al-Waqidi’s Kitab al-Maghazi, p. 252. (found here)
Sunan Abu Dawud, Vol. 5, No. 4404, p. 45. (found here)
they are both relevant to the passage in Criticism of Islam, they act as evidence for the incident (Muhammad's beheading of 600-900 Jewish men and boys) LedaThemis (talk) 12:48, 21 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
Ah, yes, leave them in. Doug Weller talk 12:59, 21 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
