Ali

I have reverted your edit to the article on Ali. The original cited the following book as a source:

Stearns, Peter N.; Langer, William Leonard (2001), The Encyclopedia of World History: Ancient, Medieval, and Modern, pub Houghton Mifflin Books, ISBN 0395652375, page 1178.

Your proposed edit replaced this citation with one to a Wikipedia article. Wikipedia articles are not as good a source for other Wikipedia articles as external sources. Please read Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources.--Toddy1 (talk) 08:29, 2 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyyah

Please can you revise your edits to the article on Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyyah. Part of your contribution has good citations to external sources. But part of it is backed by a citation to another wikipedia article. In addition you have removed parts of the original article that is backed by citations to good sources, and I think these parts should be put back.

I do not know enough about the subject to make the appropriate edits myself; so please can you fix it.--Toddy1 (talk) 08:41, 2 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hamza in Malay traditions

Hi Mandal Singh. I think that the story of hamza in malay traditions does not belong to hamza's biography which is the aim of the article. I suggest to put the story in a new article, and link it to the page of hamza's biography. What do you think? (Ewpfpod (talk) 13:36, 9 December 2010 (UTC))[reply]

Sa`d ibn Abi Waqqas

I realise that your edits must have taken a lot of time, but overall they made that article unreadable. I have reverted to before your expansion. You are using unreliable sources, including copies of Wikipedia, you are using far too many quotations from sources, the format and layout of the article were not according to our standards, and the organisation was confused.

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
