Talk:Tafsir Ibn Kathir

message: :Image:QurTafsirIbnKathir 26021.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

text: * You are right, but when a patronymic stands on its own (e.g. Ibn Kathir) the 'i' is usually upper case. In this case it is the name of a tafsir, that is, the "Ibn Kathir tafsir". So I think the move makes sense here. Srnec (talk) 04:58, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

text: *I agree it should be changed to Ibn. Every other tafsir written by someone named “Ibn Something” capitalizes “Ibn”. Keeping it lower-case gives the impression this could be a person named Tafsir the son of Kathir, haha. --Zaynab1418 (talk) 04:56, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Requested move 7 October 2021 

message: I put a lot of work a few months ago into editing this page. Since then, it has basically only gotten worse. The page has been repeatedly targeted by anonymous editors unfamiliar with the Wiki rules who add masses of unsourced information in broken English, arbitrarily change the transliteration and capitalization, and generally make the article more difficult to read and less in-line with Wikipedia standards. This was the issue in the first place before I edited it a few months ago. If we removed the unsourced information and personal research, 90% of this article would be gone. The article right now is poorly written and full of unsourced information and personal research.  A section on the page Ibn Kathir adequately covers his tafsir and is much better written than this page. I suggest we just add the image of the tafsir and the cited information about the translation to his biography and delete this page. We don't need two articles on the same thing but one is terrible. The tafsir can be covered on his biography.
This page has seen many different iterations and been constantly rewritten with virtually all of them being horrendous quality -- broken English, advertising, sectarianism, personal research, lacking citations, plagiarism, egregious non-neutrality, incoherent writing, poor formatting, non-sensical transliteration, endless vandalism and blanking, etc. 
I don't think there has been a single time this page met Wikipedia standards and when these issues were removed all that remained was a sentence or so. Out of four citations, one is a random webpage entirely in Arabic and one is a link to a bookstore.
