message: This article is written in a non-objective ("It is an act that cleanses one's mind, body, and soul from the spiritual and physical impurities of this world"; "And it is an act that satiates the hungry soul for its eagerness to please the Lord of the Worlds") and non-lexicographic ("Allah All-Mighty"; "(Allah be pleased with him)"; "(Allah bless him and give him peace)"; " According to the Sacred Law") manner. Moreover, it contains grammatical ("deeply personal worship") and logical ("the word fasting in the Arabic language means[...]") flaws.
Short, it doesn't hold up to Wikipedia standards and considering that it is also a duplicate of Sawm, I vote it be deleted.

message: Is there an exception for Ramadan allowing daytime drinking of water if living in a hot climate, such as near a desert? Healthwise, a person who spends all day in a desert exerting themself should consume about 2 gallons of water a day, spread out over all the waking hours, so, even where nights are long, nighttime drinking is not enough for health. Does Ramadan accommodate this? Nick Levinson (talk) 21:38, 31 August 2019 (UTC)

message: This article should probably be merged into Ramadan. We currently have three articles:
*Ramadan (calendar month)
*Ramadan
*Fasting during Ramadan
The last two articles basically deal with the same topic.VR talk 23:10, 20 May 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge into Ramadan 

message: The "Health effects" section was significantly changed on 17 April last year. Before the change, it depicted Ramadan fasting as bad, now it depicts as good (before and after).
The series of edits that accomplished this change came from the same IP and appear to be of variable quality. This edit, for example, is good (though the edit summary betrays a rather obvious bias), this is also correct (we shouldn't cite newspaper articles for such claims), and so is this (the claim removed was WP:OR). On the other hand, this edit removed content that was supported by at least some of the sources cited, while this was blatantly wrong (the ref said fasting was safe for healthy people and certain groups of diabetics; the IP changed the text to say that fasting was healthy, and that it was beneficial to diabetics).
I'm tempted to blank-revert the whole series of edits, but that will replace a bad situation with one that's only slightly less bad. Any more constructive suggestions? – Uanfala (talk) 10:52, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
