Talk:Warith Deen Mohammed

message: I just attempted to addend some dissenting information regarding this 'Imam' however the well documented site I referenced has been blocked! It seems it is not allowed to question this individual's greatness. Devoted followers indeed. Supertouch (talk) 14:36, 14 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Objectivity?!?

message: There are two sets of external links in the article, with the second set mainly refering to Elijah Muhammad instead of Warith Muhammad. I think the links should be combined into one section and they should more closely focus on the person who is actually the subject of the article. Everyguy 18:20, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

message: I just came across this artcle so I don't know how long it's been there, but I just deleted this sentence:
:Warith Deen Muhammad thanks you for plagiarizing this article from http://www.micgh.org/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=89&Itemid=126 .
The mid-section of the article is virtually cut and paste from the site mentioned. — Malik Shabazz (Talk | contribs) 22:46, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

message: Unfortunately, the version that has been reverted to has only a single source for a single quote. As per WP:BLP this fails and needs to be cleared and rewritten using sources.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fixthepedia (talk • contribs) 14:48, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Multiple citations are lacking 

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Warith Deen Mohammed's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "Independent":
From Pope John Paul II: 
From Malaysia: 
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 16:26, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: I'm afraid that there is no indication that the website you are attempting to post conforms to WP:IRS, $indbad 408. As has been explained to you, websites of individuals generally do not conform. Beyond that, even if it were a reliable source, the website does not verify what you wrote - it does not verify that the community disputes what Mohammed's daughter said of him. It verifies only that Brother Muhammad Siddeeq disputes it. What Laila says about her own father is likely to be pertinent and relevant to an online encyclopedia, but opinions of miscellaneous members of the public will be less so. If a newspaper, for instance, views it as worth noting that Siddeeq disputes Laila's claims, then it might be appropriate for inclusion, but almost all of the references I find to Siddeeq come from his own website. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 04:13, 16 February 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  That Imam W. Deen Mohammed practiced polygamy is disputable 

message: "Because of this conclusion, he was excommunicated five times, but by 1974, he was returned permanently to the church."
Excuse me "Church" as in a a Christian church? Surely whoever typed this meant "Mosque" or is someone to tell me the Nation of Islam calls their Mosque a "Church", I am aware members of the Nation of Islam sometimes call them "Islamic Temples" but I have never heard a Muslim of any denomination or sect say "Church" when referring to a Mosque. 
Did the citation at the end of the that sentence say "church" if so is it that trustworthy?

replies: text: Hi, Primus1x. The source is linked; if you click on it, you can read it yourself. The source uses the term "temple" for specific places of worship, but like Mosque, a temple is a single place, not a collective body.

message: The opening of the article uses the adjective "progressive". The word is used around the world in many contexts with a variety of meanings. I cannot tell what "progressive" is meant to convey in this context. Maybe somebody can either explain it a bit in the article, or use a different descriptive.

message: 23.28.214.144 (talk) removed the successor parameter from the infobox. My inclination was to revert and add it back but am unsure. On the one hand, Louis Farrakhan wasn't really a direct successor, and similarly "Leader of the Nation of Islam" wasn't a formal title as such. On the other hand, to a general wikipedia user parsing the lead, linking Farrakhan up top as the next leader makes sense and the hand-wavy nature of "leader" is likely not an issue.
