Talk:Zayd ibn Ali

message: Claims and Quotes brought in by 12ers scholars make the article biased in their Favor.
If 12ers want to have section in the article to discuss their view it should be at the bottom of the article (which Should be clearly marked that it is their view.)

thread_title:   Previous version is 12ers biased 

message: I have deleted the middle paragraph of this article, pure fiction and fantasy tales.
you seem to be really good at arithmatic to be able to reach at such a conclusion 
please extend your services to the Wiki Maths portal as well where they are in a greater need, rather than waste your energy on a biographical account

thread_title:  This article is 75% fiction and lies 

message: The article has been re done and reformatted to reflect the actual Zaidi history and background rather than a 12r biased account. Imam Zayd ibn Ali was not a 12r in any sense.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.27.15.83 (talk) 18:57, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Article improvement

message: This article is 1) badly sourced, 2) goes off on huge tangents, especially in the section  Reforming the Umayyad rule from the inside, and 3) Written with poor language. 
Normally, I would undertake this task myself, but there are a couple of reasons I want a team here. I want neutrality, and I want a consensus among all the different parties involved. 
I will represent the Ahl as-Sunnah wa al-Jama'ah here, and I would like one representative each from the Zaydiyyah, the Imamiyyah, and the Ismailiyyah. This way, we will ensure a neutral discussion, and we will ensure that all our sources are reliable and agreeable. If a member each of the Zaydiyyah and the Imamiyyah could please contact me (just leave a message here if you are interested) then we can get to editing this right away, since Zayd ibn Ali is not as prominent a figure to the Ismailiyyah as it is to three parties aforementioned. 
Anybody else who wishes to contribute is free to give their input, but I ask you to refrain from editing this article without consulting the team that will be working on it.
Wa Salam,

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I've been digging through this article's history and found out that the section about Zayd's death initially had references, among others to a work titled "Peshawar Nights" by Sultanu'l-Wa'izin Shirazi. That same diff, however, was a revert of copyvio removal. After a bit of googling, I found an online version of "Peshawar Nights" and indeed the section about Zayd's death is copypasted content. I am therefore replacing that section by something less copyvio, with less POV and better refs. --HyperGaruda (talk) 18:20, 9 August 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  More references and citations ? 

message: An unregistered editor added the category "Middle Eastern people of Pakistani descent", before I reverted it. Zayd ibn Ali was a Sayyid, Hashemite, Qurayshi, Adnanite, Ishmaelite Arab from the Hejaz in West Asia, who lived long before the creation of Pakistan in South Asia! In what way was he of Pakistani descent? Leo1pard (talk) 06:28, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
