Thank you. Please start using edit summaries, your edits may be reverted simply because you haven't explained them and the reasons aren't obvious. Dougweller (talk) 07:45, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

Peculiar contributions - Islam and link spam

Sir - I note your peculiar additions to the article about Aladin. You have added a link spam namely http://eenasul-fateh.co.tv which clearly has no relation to the subject himself. You are possibly the proprietor of this website. You have also added a spurious and unsustainable aside as to his religion. You also have an history of unsustainable additions to Wikipedia relating to 'Islamic' topics. You must desist. Waltonuponthames (talk) 11:37, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Laila_-_Shahin_Badar.jpg

 

Thanks for uploading File:Laila_-_Shahin_Badar.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the media description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
  2. On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Melesse (talk) 16:20, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Kamal Uddin (singer)

 

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 Kamal Uddin (singer), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

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 Wikipedia'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. Christopher Connor (talk) 00:26, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Global_Peace_and_Unity_Event_2005_DVD.jpg)

  Thanks for uploading File:Global_Peace_and_Unity_Event_2005_DVD.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use.

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Your suggestion/view requested on Titles

Regarding title of prominent person of Islam even in the sub pages title are not as per name prominent in Islam. Take the case of Isa nabi , article is named as ‘Islamic view of Jesus’ and not as ‘Isa’ with argument that Isa is not a ‘most common name’ in English, whereas policy on title does n’t restrict.

I have discussion on this subject on 'talk' page of ‘Islamic view of Jesus’( may like to see history of that page) but I have to withdraw as there was not enough support for my argument. Here is some of my arguments and questionnare which I prepared to get the support. If you feel some weightage in my reasoning please comment such that due weightage can be given for islamic personality in Wiki English which is international platform.

My argument is :

For special article (Jesus in Islam) granted, the title should be the name which is known to most "readers who are familiar with (though not necessarily expert in) the topic( that the article is indeed about that topic)". Here the topic is of Islam and obviously most readers are muslims who refer him by Isa as of his first name.These readres are in bulk in billion,who can read english and you can't deny them their rights.

Here where is the question of ‘most common name’ ? “isa” is also a ‘common name’ in English if not ‘most common’ and that is sufficient to qualify for tittle as per ‘principle’ criteria of ‘Recognizability’ of Wiki policy, where deliberately ‘most’ word is not used.

I don’t know where is the hitch and why everyone is insisting on ‘most common name’ when most common name is already used in the main article on ‘Jesus’ and this is additional article for which link already exist from main article.

Hence I have prepared a questinare ,only to be answered in yes or no.Hope every contributor to the discussion will have this much time to read and answer( I have narrated concerned policy in brief first for the ready reference). Answer of this will decide what is real consensus?

Wiki Policy:

“Wikipedia:Article titles

This page in a nutshell: Article titles should be recognizable to readers, unambiguous, and consistent with usage in reliable English-language sources. ‘’’The principal criteria’’’ used by editors when deciding on a title for an article include:

“Recognizability –

an ideal title will confirm, to readers who are familiar with (though not necessarily expert in) the topic, that the article is indeed about that topic. One important aspect of this is the use of common English names as used in reliable sources on the subject”.

+ 'Naturalness'...+Precision...+Conciseness...+ Consistency.. Most articles will have a simple and obvious title that is better than any other in terms of most or all of these ideal criteria. If so, use it, as a straightforward choice.

Further Wiki guide line to above points

Common names: 1.‘Articles are normally titled using the name which is most commonly used to refer to the subject of the article in English-language reliable sources. This includes usage in the sources used as references for the article.’

2. ‘When there is no single obvious common name for the topic, as used by a significant majority of reliable English language sources, editors should reach a consensus as to which title is best by considering the other criteria identified above’.”

Now point by point analysis is done .I request all the contributors to answer each question in yes or No only.

Questionare:

Q.1- Is the policy guideline taken above from Wiki policy is ok to decide on title ? Q.2-Should be the ‘main criteria’ listed above to be main guiding factor? Q.3.Is Recognizability, + 'Naturalness'...+Precision...+Conciseness...+ Consistency.. are main criteria? Q.4- Recognizabilty is listed first in main criteria have lot importance ? Q.5 ‘An ideal title will confirm, to readers who are familiar with (though not necessarily expert in) the topic, that the article is indeed about that topic. One important aspect of this is the use of common English names as used in reliable sources on the subject’ describe ‘ recognizibility’.Yes or No? Q.6 Hence title should; ‘confirm, to readers who are familiar with (though not necessarily expert in) the topic, that the article is indeed about that topic’.Yes or No? Q.7 One aspect of recognizibilty(Q.5) is ‘use of common english name’ . It is one of ‘important aspect’, but ‘principal criteria’ is fulfiling ‘recognizibility’.Yes or No? Q.8.Title to be selected on ‘principal criteria’ of ‘recognizibility’ and ‘When there is no single obvious common name for the topic, as used by a significant majority of reliable English language sources, editors should reach a consensus as to which title is best by considering the other criteria identified above’.Yes or No? Q.9.Hence the ‘other criteria identified above’ namely 'Naturalness'...+Precision...+Conciseness...+ Consistency..’ are the ‘main criteria’ which have lower order preference than ‘‘recognizibility’ ,but will guide further in judging common name.Yes or No? Q.10 In matter above, policy has asked for at least a ‘single obvious common name in english’.Yes or No? Q.11.There is policy guideline available for ‘common name’ which guide further in case of common name vs.Title, which says that ‘Articles are normally titled using the name which is most commonly used to refer to the subject of the article in English-language reliable sources. This includes usage in the sources used as references for the article.’ .Yes or No? Q.12 ‘Articles are normally titled using the name which is most commonly used to refer the subject.’As per policy above. Hence’ most common name’ is not compulsory .Yes or No? Q.13 ‘Recognizibility’ is ‘main criteria’ deciding title and not ‘the name most commonly used’.Yes or No? Q.13 (a). Hence an ideal title will confirm, to readers who are familiar with (though not necessarily expert in) the topic, that the article is indeed about that topic. Common name in English would be acceptable . If in dispute most common name and then other criteria to be referred.Yes or No? Now on the specific case of article “Jesus in Islam’; Q.14 Type of article= Biography of Religious person related of specific religion Islam.,Yes or No? Q.15; Detail of person: One of prophet of Islam, known by the name Amongst Islam ;First name :Isa(known to all,even to less educated English reader)), Second name :Jesus etc. ( only known to well educated ) Amongst Christianity and others ; Jesus,Yeshu etc.etc.( some of them also know him as Isa) Yes or No? Q.16;Most person ‘who are familiar with (though not necessarily expert in) the topic, that the article is indeed about that topic’ are follower of (directly concerned with) topic, hence follower (directly concerned with) of religion of the topic. Yes or No? Q.17;Concerned Religion of the topic is Islam,Yes or No? Q.18 Hence Most familiar person ( ‘who are familiar with (though not necessarily expert in) the topic, that the article is indeed about that topic’) are follower (directly concerned with topic) of Islam. Q.19 Population of these most familiar person are 1.8 billion. Even lowest literacy of 53 % , 1.0 billion most familiar English readers. Yes or not? Q.20 One billion familiar readers are sufficient qty to have right to have the separate article on the subject of their interest.in Wiki.. Wiki has already provided the article on the subject.? Q 21. Hence as per wiki policy title of this article should confirm to these most familiar readers(1 billion) who are follower (directly concerned with topic) of Islam? Q.22 As subject of article is most familiar to these most familiar reader by name ‘isa’ . Tittle confirm to these readers are ‘Isa’. There is no ambiquity for this name amongst these most familiar readers’? Q.23 ‘Isa’ name is also one of ‘common name in English reliable sources’.

If all the answer to above are favourable than as per wiki policy nobody can deny to accept 'Isa' as title for article 'islamic view of Jeus"

Suggestions and answer to above are welcome please.--Md iet (talk) 10:01, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
