I have deleted the long bottom section of this article, pure fiction...

[edit] This article is 75% fiction and lies

I have deleted the middle paragraph of this article, pure fiction and fantasy tales.


you seem to be really good at arithmatic to be able to reach at such a conclusion please extend your services to the Wiki Maths portal as well where they are in a greater need, rather than waste your energy on a biographical account Hussain 10:01, 3 October 2006 (UTC)


I think Hadrat Zayd-e-Shahid (as) is also in sunni tradition

Just re-wrote the article to give it a more neutral tone, but it could still use some cleaning up and some referencing. Slackerlawstudent 05:22, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

There was no reason to remove the account of Zayd's rebellion from this article, as it belonged in a biograophy of Zayd. Perhaps, though you or someone else could expand the new article you created (Zaydi Revolt) to provide more detail about the circumstances of the rebellion. Everything after about line 10 of the current version is not suitable for an encyclopedia, as it is a copy-paste of a long, non-neutral article (but you could link to the original source if you like).

I arranged the article in a fashion that only non religious material is considered the main section. All references to Zayd ibn Ali in texts mentioned in Sayyid-Ali Al-Zaidi's article " A short history..." is in the section of other literature. As for your work on Zayd ibn Ali's role in the 740 rebellion, i dedicated an entirely new page to the revolt and placed all your research in the article Zaidi Revolt. Al-Zaidi 20 March 2007 (UTC)
