message: The contribution to the Famous personalites list is well appreciated, It is my suggestion that, we must  keep this manageable (otherwise we may have more than 1,000 personalites.  Being a director of some jamat and city counselors, in my view is not achievements or accomplishment for this article. (1) try not to duplicate the link or personalities (indicating more than one place)  (2) try not to indicate incorrect and misleading information such as (Sir Adamjee Dawood) “ his family contributed all his assets in formation of Pakistan” (3) avoid writing such as Allah gift in this community so many social worker – this is not a Islamic or Jamat web site. Rather a encyclopedia, for everyone to consult.  To avoid any self praising about a person, which we may or may not have permission,  It would be a good idea to create separate pages for each personalities and it is up to the interested person to contribute or describe the person. ( this information may or may not be accepted by Wikipedia) For example. .     --Siddique Katiya 10:15, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Definition of Memons

message: I have removed the phrase Indo Aryan people twice since the article was created (the last time as part of a bigger revert), and replaced it with the more neutral ethnic group that speaks an Indo-Aryan language. The reason for this is that the phrase Indo-Aryan people smacks of a racial classification. But then again, I am no expert on the issue, so if someone feels strongly about the issue, they should change it back. 168.209.98.35 20:01, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Culture and History

message: While it may seem that the word Memon is derived from Momin, a look at the Sindhi Memon article shows that there is another explanation - 
:The word Memon came from "Meimana" which means right side and reffered to the right flank of Moh Bin Qasim's army. This word may also be derived from Arabic word Momin meaning faithful.
Therefore, unless a reliable source can be produced that proves that the assertion in the article is correct, the dubious tag will have to stay.168.209.98.35 15:23, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Not a Vanity Article

message: While I understand the removal was necessary for sourcing issues...we do still need a lead. Could someone w/more knowledge of the article write one--even a single sentence would be fine. Qwyrxian (talk) 10:51, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Lead 

message: It had an adequate, if flawed introduction, that has been blanked.
Although the earliest versions of the article expressed the uncertainty of Memon oral history, there was an aggressive tendency to introduce "facts" that fitted a single narrative, from some editors now departed. 
Now it seems that there is a tendency to blank whole sections.
However, on balance, I would prefer less content than more dubious content.
