Talk:Abdul Sattar Edhi

message: The article was rather non-encyclopedic, including a fair bit of flowery language and material that could be taken as non-neutral (i.e. POV).  I have tidied it up as best I can, reflecting the factual (non-opinion) information in the references.  While Edhi appears to be a fantastic individual who has done an amazing amount for the poor and needy, it is important to remember the purpose of the encyclopedia (presenting facts and not opinions and praise) and Wikipedia policy (that all information must be verifiable).  This particularly important for biographies of living people.  Wikipeterproject (talk) 18:40, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Cannot say the article is thoroughly edited but I removed almost all the text that does not belong in an encyclopedia and changed the structure slightly to remove the flowery language. Still need great deal of cop-editing. For now I have removed the POV tag. Samar (Talk . Contributions) 13:33, 11 December 2011 (UTC)

message: Deletion of quotes of Edhi from his page is a misunderstanding.  Manifesting his code of life stating that "My religion is humanitarianism, which is the basis of every religion in the world." In fact this quote is core of his life he followed during his life.  So this quote be restored. For reference page  Philanthropy may be studied.  Nannadeem (talk) 14:09, 13 July 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. I wanted to find a quote by Edhi. I looked in wikiquote but didn't find an entry on Edhi -- maybe someone should write one! His idea is expressed here as, "No religion is above humanity." Another version is: "No religion is higher than humanity." Oaklandguy (talk) 08:45, 17 July 2016 (UTC)

message: The section on the foundation states "During his time in London, Edhi resolved to dedicate his life to aiding the poor". This makes it sound as though the idea for the foundation was conceived at a time that he lived in London, which would be incorrect. As far as I'm aware his humanitarian work and resolve to establish a charity while in Karachi where he spent the majority of his life. 84.67.71.142 (talk) 12:56, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
