message: The standard approach is to place references at the end ("There are two basic formats for external links. The most common is to add a list of external links at the end of an article. Put here, in list form, any web sites that you have used or recommend for readers of the article. The standard format for these is to have a level 2 header (i.e. == Header ==) named "External links" followed by a bullet list of links." Wikipedia:External links); reverting that change with the misleading edit summary "don't remove references" isn't acceptable (especially when it includes a blind revert of other edits, such as tidying of the format of other references).
The second, less common, form is to embed the links in the text.  Southern Comfort has done neither, but has used the less appropriate method of references.  If there's a good reason for using anything other than the usual form, could the reasons be given here? --Mel Etitis  (Μελ Ετητης) 21:55, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

message: There is a strong Persian presence in all these 'controversial' article that’s why the keep deleting every thing related to Arab people or Arabic language and sometimes Islam ....remember most of those 'Persian' scientists (if they all really were Persian) studied in Baghdad, Cairo or Damascus and the majority of their work (and sometimes all of it) has been written in ARABIC Under the Arab empire .Also in that time no one actually cared about being Persian or Arab they just say we are Muslims…..Aziz1005 00:54, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Well actuallly Neshapur and Baghdad were the big two and Baghdad was metropolitan.  There is a lot of Arab scientists as well.  Also the Abbassids were run by Persians vaziers and later on controlled by Buyids and Seljuqs.  Note Arabs , Persians and etc.. all contributed to the Islamic civilization.  But a person from karaj (part of modern Tehran now) is a Persian Muslim just like someone from Cairo is an Arab Muslim.  و السلام .  --alidoostzadeh 02:39, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

text: According to your logic, Ptolemy should be called an Arab Muslim (and everybody laughs ;-)  The whole debate about Al-Karaji being Persian or Arab is total nonsense.  Ethnicity is a modern nationalistic construct, and in lack of any evidence to what language the chap spoke with his mother I suggest Abbassid is the best compromise.  Although the record is lacking, his working language must have been Arabic, like most of his contemporary scientists in the Abbassid empire. Cerniagigante (talk) 07:54, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
