:History of this page shows that whenever NPOV research about the MAS is added, it is removed to create a POV advertisement for what is a controversial group, even within the Muslim community. Please pitch in to help create a balanced NPOV article on this group.  --Apostate mo 00:58, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Not NPOV by any stretch of the imagination. Needs to be tagged for non-NPOV.
The group is very controversial because of recent attempts to institute Islamic Sharia for Minneapolis cab drivers, as well as ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. This makes a proper cleanup all the more urgent. TimothyHavelock 00:51, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

text: You can't classify this group as Category:Muslim Brotherhood unless you provide some references to back it up.  It seems that category has been filled with organizations who are targeted by right-wing groups like FrontPageMag and Hasbara fronts without so much as a token attempt to provide supporting evidence.  Note, this group has been targeting by the extreme right in the United States with accusations of terrorism that have resulted in bias attacks and death threats on its members and property.  So there are real consequences of blithely categorizing them in the same group as Hamas, without neutral citations.   T L Miles (talk) 14:02, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Heavily biased propaganda-article

message: :Image:MAS Logo.gif 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 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:MAS Logo.gif

message: First, I deleted the quotations as they seemed random and served no purpose. Second, I added the early history of the MAS from an extensive article on the group done by the Chicago Tribune in 2004. The article needs much more work but at least we now have that.Sgmiller (talk) 09:02, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Over the last year and a half, my additions to this article were deleted with no discussion. I would reminder those editors that it is against WP policy to removed sourced material without discussion. The material I added was based on a Chicago Tribune article in cast that is not obvious. Please do not delete without coming to the discussion and explaining.Sgmiller  —Preceding undated comment added 19:43, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
