Summary:

edit

From my experience, wikipedia is not set up for personal tirades, political vendettas, or opinion. So in short, the information listed as to the purpose of the united nation of islam being established is clear and evident without going into a theological discussion. The activities that the UNOI has become known for are well documented in numerous newspapers, and communities across the country. The negative information that was posted by masonuc is unvierfiable as it is untrue and based on tabloid style interviews with former members of the UNOI and no direct contact with the UNOI or its officals.

Additional questions: (These questions are optional, but will help the AMA field your case to the most capable Advocate.)

Question: To better understand your position in this dispute, are you a member of or are related to the group in question? If so, in what capacity?

  • Answer: I am a participant in the UNOI.

Question: Since this is an article about a niche group, having verifiable information to read over will help any potential Advocates. Could you help provide verifiable sources that would be relevant in the article in question? If so, can you list links some here?

  • Answer:

On http://unitednationofislam.com/inthenews/index.html there is a listing of sevreal verifiable, articles from reputible sources such as the Christian Science Moniter, the Kansas City Star, as well as here is a link to write up done by the city of hamden in CT http://www.hamden.com/content/691/697/841.aspx. Hope this helps.
