[edit] Qur'an desecration by US detainees

Yet another limp fork of Qur'an desecration controversy of 2005 (see also Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Qur'an desecration at Guantánamo Bay). This is part of a binge of creating new articles, renaming the original article again and again and generally messing around with the content, in an apparent attempt to further a POV. --Lee Hunter 16:45, 15 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• Delete. With or without Jack the Ripper or Adolf Hitler, people commit suicide. Generally, if you kill yourself, that's your own business. But homicide is a different matter. If I were a detainee. I can use my copy of Qu'ran to do whatever I want to do as long as it does not cause any trouble. It is a completely different matter if U.S. military personnels take that copy of Qu'ran from a defenseless and unprotected detainees and do something to it. -- Toytoy 17:32, Jun 15, 2005 (UTC)

• Keep or make sure that the main article reflects the truth that most of the abuse of the Qur'an has been by the detainees (terrorists). Otherwise, the article would be nothing more than POV America-bashing and would warrant deletion. Capitalistroadster 00:24, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)

• Delete, unsubstantiated gibberish and POV. Kaibabsquirrel 23:32, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Keep, unless there is clear and reliable agreement that reported acts of Qur'an desecration which US detainees are accused of, will go in the Qur'an desecration controversy of 2005 article. It was only because csloat and toytoy refused to allow this info to be included, that I created the Qur'an desecration by US detainees sidebare article. If there's a merge, then a REDIRECT is better than having 2 articles. -- Uncle Ed (talk) 19:55, Jun 20, 2005 (UTC)
  • Ed you're misrepresenting what happened on the Qur'an desecration controversy of 2005 article. Nobody - certainly not I - "refused" to allow this information into the article; my only objection was to making it the focus of the article by emphasizing it in the introduction. The information is in the article as you can verify yourself.--csloat 23:42, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)
• Delete this article; it appears to have been created simply to prove a point. As noted above, the point itself is based on a misinterpretation of the discussion.
