[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Islam:The Sunni Guild

Totally inappropriate. A POV based dividing of editors works against NPOV policy, not towards it. Wikipedians should work together, not as US vs THEM but as a whole. Dividing people, classifying them into distinct group, is how ghettos form, and how racism starts. To try this is to claim that editors of belief X must all believe what everyone else of belief X is. US vs. THEM, is a false dichotomy. Truth is not black and white, there are many many shades of grey. To push one POV, or to try to balance only one side of the scales, leaves the other side unbalanced, making the system push naturally toward the POV of the balancing side. This is not appropriate. This is not right. This is not a wikipedian way of behaving.

• Keep. I believe this is a good faith effort. Also, I don't think there is anything wrong with having a project, that is designed to make sure that a specific PoV is not misrepresented, this according to Wikipedias NPoV policies. -- Karl Meier 21:59, 6 August 2005 (UTC)
