[edit] Negev Bedouins

Hi. Sorry, but I don't know of any free sources for images. Aside from that, I was wondering whether the title should be Negev Bedouins rather than Negev bedouins? Number 57 20:29, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Wow, someone else came in and moved it whilst we were having this conversation :) Number 57 20:34, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
No problem, I apologize however, for not consulting the two of you first. I had no idea the title was being discussed. Cheers -- Al Ameer son 19:54, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
I wouldn't - I believe you either have to have the owner's permission to use them in any form of media or to own them yourself in order to satisfy the criteria (and as far I see on the page there is no permission granted to use them elsewhere). For more see WP:IMAGE. Number 57 20:45, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Bad naqib.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Bad naqib.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 22:06, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Taj Mahal

Finally, someone actually doing productive edits on the Taj article! It get's bombed daily by P.N. Oak theorists and Friends of gays - "david is a fag" etc. etc. We've been doing a bit of a holding exercise on it for a while now. I've been rewriting a fully referenced version of it in my userspace here User:Joopercoopers/Taj Mahal/restructure - It's still not finished and is too long, so it needs pruning and I think probably splitting into a main article and a Architecture of the Taj Majal article. I thought I'd let you know before you spent too much energy 'sorting' the mainspace article out. There's no point in two people doing the same thing - I'd suggest, if you like, working on the restructure - the tomb description needs rewriting, there's a section on how it influenced European art and architecture - notions of the picturesque etc. - There's some more to be written about "The taj today and the future" - I'm going to provide a fully annotated plan - There's a section on the plinth and terrace to finish - and then adding appropriate images and a final copyedit. --Joopercoopers 17:02, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] good job

Good work on the an-Nisa:34 page. MezzoMezzo 20:45, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

Salam 'alaik akhi, i've noticed more recent edits by you. Keep up the good work! MezzoMezzo 18:04, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your edits in History of Islam in the United States‎

Could you provide quotes in the references your are using so that we can see exactly what the authors have written.--CltFn 05:10, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Islam by Country

Hey, glad to have you on board. Any help you can give on the discussion board would be greatly appreciated. We are in the midst of trying to formalize one main source and have a seperate column dedicated to other sources. Up to now the consensus has been to use the CIA World Factbook. Recently, however, people are wildly editing the article without participating in the discussion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by TS Brumwell (talk • contribs) 00:50, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Second Barbary War

The British Empire is not the official title of the United Kingdom of Great Britann. The Act of Union occured in 1800 and so from 1800 onwards, the entities that was informally known as the "British Empire" became the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. Note that British Empire is not an official or formal term used by the UK.

[edit] Kanzul Iman

Thanks! It's a problem. Kanzul Iman is highly notable and important as a Qur'an translation, but the article has been started by an editor whose native language is clearly not English and who doesn't understand how Wikipedia's neutrality or sourcing works. Your help is very gratefully received. Gordonofcartoon 00:35, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Bin Baaz

Hey, I noticed your recent edit to the Bin Baaz page. In regard to him declaring bin Laden to be a khariji, that was actually included in the two previous references in which he also spoke about the treaty of hudaibiyyah, if I am not mistaken. I can see where you're coming from though as it looks almost like POV. I'll leave this one up to you, that article has been a major POV/DE magnet so i'm willing to defer if established/fair users (you being one of those) makes a change.

[edit] Gecko

You removed a relevant quote of Muhammad here which I've restored now. --Matt57 (talk•contribs) 18:18, 1 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Kashmir map

Your map of Kashmir needs a little fixing. The Demchok area should be shown in a different color, as that area is administered by India and claimed by China, not the other way around as is presently shown. Also, the spelling "Shaksam" for that area is a mistake. The correct spelling is "Shaksgam." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Atelerix (talk • contribs) 16:18, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Islam in Rwanda

Updated DYK query On 1 March 2008, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Islam in Rwanda, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.
