Mosque articleSomeone let me know yesterday that the mosque article is the subject of two disputes. As you're aware, I had scheduled this as tomorrow's main page featured article, but it can't go up while the disputes are going on, so I've taken it off the queue. Please let me know when the disputes are over and I'll fast-track it back onto the queue. Raul654 10:23, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
Reversions to MosqueThanks you for the note. You may want to ask BhaiSaab to use the talk page to justify his edits. Pecher Talk 20:28, 13 June 2006 (UTC) IFD and NSDPlease note that recent images that you have tagged with IFD tags already had NSD tags on them. I'm assuming you had a dispute with the NSD tags so you should have removed those before listing them in IFD. The NSD's will expire tomorrow and the images should be deleted when that happens unless those tags are removed. You should probably go ahead and remove them since you went through the process of listing for IFD. I don't personally feel like any discussion was required but if you feel that they should be kept then please do remove the NSD tags. Perhaps you just didn't notice the NSD tag. --Strothra 13:27, 14 June 2006 (UTC)
Thanks Jordan

Hey Jordan. Thanks for taking care of the image from those template test pages--I'd completely forgotten about them. Out of curiosity, is Image:Flag of the Olympic Movement.svg free to use, or should it be removed from User/Template/Wikipedia space as well? -- Jonel | Speak 23:11, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
I've responded on the article's talk page. Pecher Talk 22:12, 16 June 2006 (UTC) Removed ImageI'm definetely not going to read that now - but thanks anyway for letting me know. --Scotteh 22:35, 16 June 2006 (UTC) Translation workYou requested the translation of pt:Onda de violência no Brasil em Maio de 2006 to English. I can do the job. What should I do with your request at WP:TIE? Do you want any special thing from the article? Regards! Afonso Silva 00:27, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
HeyI was just wondering why you have all these religions' symbols on top of your page but not Islam? Islam is like the second largest religion. Is there any specific reason or did you just not think about it? Anyway, I just thought it would be interesting to know. --Scotteh 10:06, 17 June 2006 (UTC)
Category marked for deletionYou may be interested. BhaiSaab talk 00:20, 18 June 2006 (UTC) Thank you for your support![]() Thank you very much for your support on my recent RfA. I am pleased to announce that it passed with a tally of 72/11/1, and I am now an administrator. I'll be taking things slowly at first and getting used to the tools, but please let me know if there are any admin jobs I can do to help you, now or in the future. —Cuiviénen 02:24, 18 June 2006 (UTC) You stated the image is in the public domain because "[..] the picture is being used on Wikipedia to illustrate an Islamic concept." This might be true but public domain lets you use the image in other contexts, as well. So I doubt that this image really is PD, it might be used under the fair use rationale only. --Matt314 10:03, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
Categories Which List People Executed by GovernmentsFrom Wikipedia:Categories for deletion/Log/2006 June 16#Category:People killed by or on behalf of Muhammad, you stated...
I found Category:People killed by the Third Reich, but that was it. What are the others you had in mind? -- tariqabjotu (joturner) 22:11, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
RfA thanks!

Banu NadirAssalam-o-Alaikum We are having a problem at Banu Nadir. This article was put on the front page a few days ago, which was very offensive to many Muslims and also inaccurate in facts. This article is under dispute but it seems that the other party is not ready to negotiate. My explanations were based on the articles of Javed Ahmad Ghamidi, who himself has been a student of two great Islamic scholars of twentieth century, Amin Ahsan Islahi[1] who wrote Tadabbur-ul-Qur'an, an accredited Tafsir and Abu ala Maududi, who wrote another Tafsir, Tafhim-ul-Qur'an. Articles written by Javed Ahmad Ghamidi and Amin Ahsan Islahi explain very clearly the reasons of prosecutions by early Muslims. Unfortunately, most of their books are in Urdu, but some of their articles have been translated in English, which can be accessed through links given on Javed Ahmad Ghamidi and [2]. I read some parts of Tadabbur-ul-Qur'an myself and wrote a small paragraph, which I included in Banu Nadir (now removed because the article is under dispute). Just to give you an idea, the paragraph is written below:
I would like you to get involve in this article, as it may help us in coming to a conclusion. SaadSaleem 09:38, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
Your Good article starsI was wondering if you could take the green star out of the set of stars that you made and split it up like the featured article star so that we can use it over at WP:GA. Thanks. --SomeStranger(t) 19:08, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

A short Esperanzial updateAs you may have gathered, discussions have been raging for about a week on the Esperanza talk page as to the future direction of Esperanza. Some of these are still ongoing and warrant more input (such as the idea to scrap the members list altogether). However, some decisions have been made and the charter has hence been amended. See what happened. Basically, the whole leadership has had a reshuffle, so please review the new, improved charter. As a result, we are electing 4 people this month. They will replace JoanneB and Pschemp and form a new tranche A, serving until December. Elections will begin on 2006-07-02 and last until 2006-07-09. If you wish to run for a Council position, add your name to the list before 2006-07-02. For more details, see Wikipedia:Esperanza/June 2006 elections. Thanks and kind, Esperanzial regards, —Celestianpower háblame 16:00, 23 June 2006 (UTC) Your User PageHey, I was just randomly perusing UserPages looking for inspiration for my own when I stumbled upon yours. I have to say it's the most aesthetically pleasing page I've ever seen on Wikipedia, period. Did you design it yourself? Very clean, crisp and elegant. Anyway, just thought I'd throw some wikiprops your way. Namaste. Nscheffey(T/C) 16:28, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
Trading spaces![]() I personally don't mind you renovating my page. I'm bad in creating them a good userpage. Thanks Jaranda wat's sup 22:03, 24 June 2006 (UTC)
Thank you, I did some changes, but I like it Jaranda wat's sup 20:56, 25 June 2006 (UTC) Hey can you help me with that section please, I don't really understand. Thanks Jaranda wat's sup 21:18, 25 June 2006 (UTC) Saudi influence in MosquesHey... in the end I really don't care. I've lost enough hope in the wiki system at present that I'm not willing to fight for what I think would be a better article because I would have to get into a constant battle to keep it that way... and, it's not worth the time. Creating conversion of houses of worship of other religions into mosques was a mistake because it will never be NPOVed and will be used as a tool... the first thing Pecher did was remove the neutrality tags which the article desperately needs. So, the Saudi section should be cut in half (at least) and the rest should be pushed into another article if it's good information. You may also want to place it under social conflict because nothing makes it more important than other influences of social conflict in history. I'm not really going to invest any work into it, so don't let my opinions keep you back. gren グレン 06:33, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
