thread_title:  Balti-English / English-Balti Dictionary  By R. K. Sprigg  

message: Sajjad Altaf and I have disagreed on what WP:PBUH means.
Here is the relevant text from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:PBUH#Islamic_honorifics:
* The Prophet or (The) Holy Prophet (including with a lowercase 'h') in place of, or preceding, "Muhammad"; or just Prophet preceding "Muhammad" — recommended action is to simplify and NPOV to just "Muhammad" except when it is the first reference in an article in which case it may be rendered as "the Islamic prophet, Muhammad" if necessary.
* PBUH, or the fuller "peace be upon him", after Muhammad or other Islamic prophets — recommended action is to remove.
The first one means to just call him "Muhammad", not "Holy Prophet Muhammad".
The second one means that both "PBUH" and "peace be upon him" should be removed.  It does not mean that the full version is ok.  It means that either version should be removed.
Does that make sense?  If you do not understand this, and revert my edit again, then I will summon other Wikipedia editors.

thread_title:  What WP:PBUH means 

message: I was referring to PBUH and did not know that Wikipedia's bigotry level against Islam would reach to that level that they will have a special rules page defined to keep muslims away from writing and referring the names of Islamic dignitaries in a most respectable manner.
WP:PBUH is an example of bigotry against Islam and thus should be modified/removed to allow honorifics.
The name of The Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him) should be written in most respected manner and not like an ordinary person.
Just wanted to send my point across.  Sajjad Altaf (talk) 06:26, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I know this is years later, but the English Wikipedia clearly states usually not to give honorifics in most cirucmstances. See Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Biography#Honorific_prefixes WhisperToMe (talk) 02:16, 14 June 2020 (UTC)

message: "He wrote the book 'Balti Zabaan' in 1990, the first book on the language."
"Balti Grammar" by A.F.C. Read is of 1934, see WorldCat
There is also the Balti vocabulary in G.T. Vigne "Travels in Kashmir..." of 1842, see WorldCat This is not a complete book on Balti, but perhaps worth mentioning.
