Contested deletion
editThis page should not be speedy deleted as an unambiguous copyright infringement, because I used reputable and both primary and secondary sources and cited every use. Please give further information about this before deletion. Also, the cited references were not created by me.Stephbarth (talk) 02:56, 22 October 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stephbarth (talk • contribs) 02:54, 22 October 2016 (UTC)
I agree that this should not be deleted. The sources used were cited, not reposted. What is the problem?
I see that the page has been reverted to a much less informative version than what it was after all of my contributions. I cited every word I added to the page. Elaborate specifically how copyright was infringed upon.Stephbarth (talk) 16:35, 22 October 2016 (UTC)
Copyright infringement, what you are claiming, is an incorrect analysis of my contributions to this page. "Almost never appropriate," "usually should," these statements in the Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources is very subjective and not relevant here. I cited everything and made clear when it was not my own words. Reverse this deletion.Stephbarth (talk) 16:20, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
The user who deleted the page referred us to the Bibliotheca Alexandrina website- " The Center for Islamic Civilization Studies was established in 2013, in response to the need for reforming the Islamic religious discourse on one hand, and bridging the gap between Islamic Fiqh and our contemporary world on the other. The center aims to contribute to the construction of a contemporary and systematic Islamic discourse, interwoven with reality, and create a space for interaction between Islamic Fiqh and thought, and the modern world we live in, with all its entanglements and complications. To this end, the center presents the contemporary perspectives and thoughts sweeping our modern world in a scientific and cognitive way that introduces Islamic thought to new horizons. It also attempts to mobilize Islamic scholars and intellects to interact positively with global issues, and encourages them to engage in the areas of ijtihad (Islamic diligence), and contemporary social issues without fear or sensitivity."- Furthermore, also from the website, here is the Bibliotheca Alexandrina's mission statement, "The Bibliotheca Alexandrina aims to be: A center of excellence in the production and dissemination of knowledge and to be a place of dialogue, learning and understanding between cultures and peoples."
Who appears to be acting in the spirit of the Bibliotheca? User Stephbarth? Or the person who deleted this effort arbitrarily and with great contradiction? — Preceding unsigned comment added by TlyleSheph3rd (talk • contribs) 16:49, 23 October 2016 (UTC)
Vandalism?Bad Faith??
editThis pages has been worked on faithfully by Stephbarth who has gone to secondary sources and been careful in her editing. The deletions seem to me to be vandalism and bad faith. This is heedless trolling of a hard working newq editor and I seek other input bad support. Please see above entry" Contested Deletion.
I was looking through the edit history on the Bibliotheca Alexandrina page, and I didn't see notes giving the reason WHY Stephbarth's contributions were deleted, other than not citing sources (which clearly is not the case here). Given the subject of that paragraph, I wouldn't be surprised if it was deleted on the grounds of some political or religious reason. That clearly demonstrates bias on the deleting party's end, if that were the case. Amflis16 (talk) 18:44, 23 October 2016 (UTC)

According to the last issue of The Economist, Mostafa El-Abbadi was instrumental in the creation of the Bibliotheca Alexandrina but his name doesn't appear yet on the page. Would anyone know anything about the subject? Un historien (talk) 14:48, 11 March 2017 (UTC)
