[edit] Habashies

Yet again another article which contains nothing but external links. Zoe 02:42, August 15, 2005 (UTC)

• Delete a massive amount of links but no content or context. Can always be recreated later as an actual article should the author or someone else want to. --TheMidnighters 03:06, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep Article needs to be rewritten, but the subject is legit. Just delete the links and leave as a stub? Dottore So 04:14, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
• weak keep as per Dottore So. --Apyule 06:34, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
• Keep. Terrible article in desperate need of a cleanup, but the subject matter is notable. Nandesuka 12:51, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. Firstly, it's "Habashis" ("Habashies" is a non-standard spelling). Secondly, I'm wondering if it's a derogatory term for the movement itself, since I can only find it on hostile sites. The article as it stands is utterly hostile POV. It should be deleted and recreated at "Association of Islamic Charitable Projects" or "Al-Ahbash", or else at the existing page under copyvio dispute Ahbash (Lebanon). Here's an academic article giving a far clearer idea what it's about [1]. Tearlach 23:00, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
• Delete. The basic topic is probably worthwhile but this article doesn’t make it. Needs 100% rewrite and reposting under a different title. ♠ DanMS 04:18, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
