[edit] Disputes

This is a whole bunch of nonsense (anti-India POV) in the article. It basically accuses Indian government of attacking and defaming SIMI on false charges. Rama's arrow 03:41, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

SIMI is a group of Islamic terrorists. "Right-wing Sangh parivar". Hah.Bakaman Bakatalk 16:50, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Hkelkar's edits

Finally made this encyclopedic. Thank you. Otherwise this was SIMI's mouthpiece.Bakaman Bakatalk 00:06, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Terrorist

Nowhere on the sources does it claim that SIMI is a terrorist org. It may be banned, but "terrorist" is dubious. Mar de Sin Talk to me! 20:11, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

I will make edits that used "fundamentalist" instead, which is what the main ext link calls SIMI. Mar de Sin Talk to me!
Satp's headng is "Terrorism".Bakaman Bakatalk 02:23, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
A heading is only slightly relevant to the text, especially when the heading is slapped onto hundreds of other articles. So find something else. Mar de Sin Talk to me! 02:45, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
And if SIMI is truly a terrorist org, then there would be other sources declaring that. Mar de Sin Talk to me! 02:54, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
