Hi, welcome to Wikipedia! Was it your intention to create this as a draft article for submission, or as a 'live' article? It contains the 'headers' used for a draft, but you created it as 'published'. If you can let me know, I'll fix it one way or the other. Reventtalk 02:19, 6 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

Hi, I created this article as a 'live'. Thank you for corrections. Please feel free to make any changes that you think are appropriate. Yash (talk) 08:34, 6 July 2014 (UTC)Reply

Were you aware that this is NOT a picture of Bahá'u'lláh? If you honestly thought it was then ignore the following (please). If you substituted the photograph under the impression that this was a just nicer picture of Bahá'u'lláh then you will now understand why it has had to be changed back.
On the other hand IF (and I find this hard to believe) you deliberately changed it - somehow imagining that it "improved" the article by hiding the Sacred Image, then this is extremely questionable ethically. The Baha'is, (including myself) would (obviously) very much rather this picture was not displayed here (or anywhere else "in public" for that matter). That is very simply not the point. Unfortunately we have no choice, nor, arguably, should we have. On the other hand, to have a picture of the Master substituted as one of the Blessed Beauty is VERY much worse. It is also fundamentally dishonest. Knowingly publishing a falsehood on a public encyclopedia is simply wrong from almost every conceivable point of view - apart from everything else it is calculated to bring the Cause of God into disrepute - not mere branding the Believers as bigots who impose their own standards on others, but also as a pack of liars and cheats.
Forgive me if this whole thing has been, as I said at first, purely inadvertent. --Soundofmusicals (talk) 01:14, 17 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
