Talk:List of mosques
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- i believe this article needs more accuracy. there were just two samples for irans mosques whic none of them were mosques indeed.(like Ribat-i Sharaf in Iran which is a carvansarai not a mosque). please cheak all places. many of them are not mosques and not famous at all ! --Babakgh 00:07, 13 September 2005 (UTC)
It hardly needs to be said that List of famous mosques is the better title. Wetman 03:19, 11 Aug 2004 (UTC)
- agreed, because I looked at the title and added the Tsar's Mosque because the page was List of mosques... if it's not famous enough feel free to remove it and/or move this page to List of famous mosques. (I say this because there is a difference between famous mosques and mosques and both are valid pages.) gren
You have to speek about the great mosque of Damas.
- We have to decide between “list of mosques” worldwide and “list of famous mosques”? It seems we would be doubling the work if we maintain two lists. I’m building a list of all mosques worldwide that do not necessarily include ‘famous’ mosques, you can view the ‘work in progress’ under my page here *NEWUSER Page this information will be moved to “list of mosques” or “list of famous mosques” once I verified them by date of construction, to be developed.
- We also need to create a Category for “list of mosques” or “list of famous mosques” that can be used on all mosques’ pages for navigational purposes.
- ps: same applies to my list of Frank Lloyd Wrights work.
- Please share your ideas, thx! NEWUSER 18:51, 5 May 2005 (UTC)

- Category:Mosques will be fine for categorization, we don't need a category for lists of mosques... I think it should be all mosques for now....famous is very subjective... plus, I don't think people are going to start adding pages for random small town mosques any time soon. I have uploaded three pictures of small mosques but I'm not going to make pages for them... So, even though London Central Mosque probably isn't truly famous like Al-Aqsa... it does deserve to be there since it is marginally famous at least... so... I'd say be inclusive until people start adding "Mosque of Lancaster, Pennsylvania" which, if there even is one is pretty insignificant. gren 19:33, 5 May 2005 (UTC)
- I do agree with your point gren; I just wanted to note that I’m personally developing a list of all mosques worldwide and that’s why I only keep them here before I move any well-known mosques to the main page on Wikipedia for further development by others. If an admin can merge the List of famous mosques with List of mosques would be great - since as you noted, the list currently contain mosques that are not necessarily ‘famous’ --NEWUSER 17:04, 10 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Duplicate article
The article List of Mosques (capital 'M') should be merged into this one (the only entries not found here are links to mosques without an article) and then deleted. 80.202.25.17 15:17, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Religion
This should be in a category I think should be called see below on category list. Category:Muslim Religion. --User:Michael Simpson--
[edit] Factual Error
I saw that there is a factual error when there was a list under the name Palestine/Israel. First pointing out the fact that no such country (Palestine) exists, none of the mosques listed are even located in the occupied territories. Until the future status of Jerusalem is resolved, I wish to change the title from "Palestine/Israel" to simply "Israel". I will proceed with the change in two days, if no sufficient well-put argument is presented.--Brad M. 04:33, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
- Note to the section is added. Cheers -- Szvest 19:23, 5 June 2006 (UTC) Wiki me up™
[edit] Mosques in the Philippines and Brunei
We need to also add mosques in Brunei and the Philippines. There is even new version of a well-known existing mosque in Sulu, Philippines under construction.
