message: Having just watched the State of Origin game 3 interview with him at the end of the match, i'm pretty sure he said that he had a daughter and 2 sons?  Can any confirm this? Nicwright 12:09, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

message: I feel strongly that the sentence: "El Masri is a devout Muslim who has become a positive role model for many young Australians" should be altered or completely removed. It has a massive ideological agenda. 
It has the same agenda as the following: "such-in-such is a devout Nazi/Christian/Nationalist/Conservative/Whatever...and therefore is a positive role model for many young Australians".
I don't consider his devout religiousity or his veiled wife to be a positive role model. I don't believe Wikipedia should be endorsing any form of "devoutness" and should instead report circumstances rather than endorse them. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Davidrose (talk • contribs)

:Regardless of your beliefs, it is a fact that El Masri is considered a role-model within the general community. I have separated the fact that he is a devout Muslim from the fact that he is widely respected in the general community by splitting the sentence. Florrie 05:55, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  HUGE IDEOLOGICAL BIAS 

message: Currently, the article reads:
	
The Canterbury Bulldogs have a large Lebanese-Australian following due to players such as El Masri, Rod Silva and Craig Polla-Mounter.
	 
Eh? Neither Silva nor Polla-Mounter is Lebanese, so more information would be required to make this sentence make sense. Ordinary Person (talk) 07:25, 22 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Lebanese-Australian following

message: Named in the train-on squad by the Lebanese, have restored him to a current player, from retired and and adjusted the retirement section to reflect his retirement from the NRL competition. Were he pull out of the Lebanon squad he should then be restored to former player status. Lando09 (talk) 18:25, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: If he plays for Lebanon, 2009 can be added to the infobox, otherwise it's just crystal-balling. Being named in a training squad wish-list is not the same as selection. It's far easier to reference an event after the fact, than before. As it stands with your edit, the infobox is misleading.  florrie  00:22, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
