[edit] Arabic place of Sajdah

Arabic place of Sajdah (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)
  • Delete Arabic place of Sajdah per complete lack of content and sources.--Sefringle 10:34, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Not remotely encyclopedic in its current form. I'd entertain an argument that it's a CSD:A1 candidate. A Train take the 16:40, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete - Almost no content, and the article doesn't seem to be notable. -- Wenli 17:39, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak delete there's probably a useful article to be written here - I've always wondered why that character's included in the Unicode set - but this isn't it. - Iridescenti (talk to me!) 18:52, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge into Sajdah. --DorisHノート 19:57, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete as this subject is not yet suitable for Wikipedia. Mr. Berry 23:35, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete not notable or encyclopedic. Really, it could be speedied if someone tryed. Captain panda In vino veritas 00:17, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, not notable, not encyclopedic --Mhking 00:30, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Question before we remove it, can someone please explain to us why this should have a Unicode character in the first place? Sajdah redirects to Sujed, the Muslim practice of prostration in prayer, which does not seem relevant. Just what is "House of Sajed"? and why whould it have a character? Taking a wild guess, is it analogous to the conventional symbol for Sign of the Cross in Catholic prayer-books, indicating where one should make the sign of the cross-(a symbol which by the way is not used in that article) -- but why should it be "house of Sajdah"?

This is a pure guess, but maybe it's used on maps in the Muslim world to indicate mosques? - Iridescenti (talk to me!) 00:01, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep or develop I think the article should be kept. While it doesn't really qulaify for notability, I'm sure there's a lot to be said about the history of that character. I don't really think any typographical symbols have a lot to be said about, nontheless, there ought to be information available about them. There should be a mention or a description about that symbol somewhere in wikipedia, after all, if I crated this article in the first place, it's because I was intrested in knowing what that symbol was and I couldn't find it anywhere in wikipedia ! So yeah, if it HAS to be deleted, please make sure it is mentionned somewhere in an article what this symbol is. But the better would be if somebody could give more info about it.
