Great job on the article about Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, and the pictures were excellent. I moved the last two to the page on Aligarh University.

Image licensing

edit

Hi, you uploded the image Image:Victoria gate.jpg, could you please attach an image copyright tag, there is more information here Wikipedia:Image copyright tags. Thanks --nixie 09:06, 13 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Also, could you add a image copyright tag to Image:Aligarh church.jpg? You can use {{gfdl}} if you release it under the GNU Free Documentation License, {{fairuse}} if you claim fair use, etc. If you don't know what any of this means, just let me know at my talk page where you got the images and I'll tag them for you. Thanks so much. Ricky81682 (talk) 08:14, Dec 21, 2004 (UTC)

Ok, you can look at the image copyright tags to get a better idea. I think the one you'd probably want is {{CopyrightedNotForProfitUseProvidedThat| reason}}. That tag says that it can be used for a non-profit, educational purpose only, with "reason" being any other restrictions (credit is given to the author, etc). If you want to get some ideas, go to the category for these images and see what language they use. Additionally, you may wish to consider going to Preferences and adding a link to your user and talk pages in your signature (it's just easier to simply click on that than to check the history for who wrote it). Maybe I'm just getting too lazy. =) --Ricky81682 (talk) 07:36, May 3, 2005 (UTC)

Hello. I've noticed that you've tagged a few of your images with {{mprotected}}. I think you may have meant to copy-&-paste something else. The {{mprotected}} tag is used by Admins to keep track of 'protected' images on the Main Page. I don't think you want that on your images. Please check and fix.

Your VandalProof Application

Dear Atif nazir,

Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact the just released 1.3 version has even more power. Because of this we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that at this time you do not meet the minimum requirement of 250 edits to mainspace articles (see under main here). Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again soon. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof. Daniel 06:23, 20 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

re: translation of my name to Hebrew - a request

I've been away for a couple weeks. Would you like just a transliteration or an actual translation of the names (i.e. finding equivalent names in Hebrew or something like that)? A simple transliteration would be:

A more accurate transliteration could be done perhaps if I knew how you pronounce it in the original language (Arabic?). Best, nadav (talk) 15:33, 20 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Armstrong

edit

hello Atif, thank you for your message. i don't believe that Armstrong is being disqualified on the basis that her views are pro-Islam. there are many anti-Islam writers who are similarly unacceptable, such as Ibn Warraq or any other polemicist. the way we (should) judge sources is through what is specified at Wikipedia:Reliable sources and Wikipedia:Verifiability. the first is a guideline, the second is policy. both state that we need to use reliable sources to back up the material we insert. the basic rule is: all sources are unreliable until their reliability is proven. so we assume that anyone writing about Islam isn't a reliable source until we see evidence indicating otherwise. the usual way editors on Islam-related articles judge reliability is by looking at where the work has been published, and what the credentials of the author are. we typically expect an author to have been trained in Islamic studies, and/or the publisher to be of high academic repute (i.e. University of Oxford press). reliability isn't always a black and white issue, however. there are other indicating factors for reliability, such as how frequently the book is cited in scholarly journals (and in what manner), or how highly the author is regarded by qualified academics.

though she may appear frequently in the media (as do right wing neo-cons), Karen Armstrong doesn't have the academic credentials (as far as i know), nor do i think she is of high regard in academic circles - although i could be wrong. in any case, if you have evidence to suggest that she is reliable, the best place to present it would be on Talk:Muhammad. i would recommend you check out more respected works like Montgomery Watt's "Muhammad: Prophet and Statesman" which should be easily available at most good libraries. regards, ITAQALLAH 16:20, 4 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Thanks Itaqallah for your comments. Was away on a vacation. Her most of the books on are on non-Islamic topics and I have found them very knowledgeable. I have never read about her anywhere as "controversial", in fact have read praises about her for her work other religions as well, not just Islam (1, 2 etc.). As Aminz pointed out her scholarly contribution at Muhammad:Talk also, Why is she then rejected in Wikipedia? The authors who are rejecting her pick a point or two and make a sweeping conclusion that she is unreliable or "low-quality" etc. Regarding her Islamic views, She has a viewpoint which happens to be conflicting with conventional Orientalist view, I feel THAT is the reason for which she is rejected? I will put in more detail in support of her ~atif - 05:33, 14 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

Revert warring

Hi Syed,

Please be more careful in the future and discuss disputed changes rather than reinstating them repeatedly; you broke the three-revert rule at Criticism of Muhammad, but I protected the page instead of blocking because I felt that trying to foster talk-page discussion was the best option in this case, and blocking would not have helped discussion.

Not Vandalism

edit

I can see why you thought my edit at Prophet was vandalism, but it wasn't: I removed a relatively spurious passage which was added in the past couple of months or so, apparently in order to 'pad' the description of Judaism and obscure the perspectives of Islam and Christianity. By removing that paragraph, I restored the section to its form before the article was virtually 'vandalized. IMO, a discussion of 'Prophet' in the perspective of Judaism should start with an explanation of the Hebrew word 'navi' -- not an uncited claim that Judaism basically doesn't believe in prophets and prophecies after 586 B.C. 09:59, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

Criticism of Islam is not "Islamophobia"

edit

I've just reverted your edit on the Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy page.

drawing insensitive cartoons is more than criticism and "Islamophobia" is also mentioned in the article.As per the definition of "Islamophobia", it should shows "prejudice or discrimination against Islam or Muslims". Also the Category says "article in question discusses or refers to the topic of Islamophobia. Adding this category to an article is in no way intended to imply that the subject of the article is Islamophobic." ~atif Talk 14:54, 10 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
Well, I disagree, and I hope other editors remove all of your "Category:Islamophobia" tags.
Nasty cartoons about George W. Bush may be "insensitive", but do not constitute "Bushophobia". Cartoons that make fun of Christians, or gays, or white people are expressions of free speech, and don't necessarily imply phobias. --RenniePet 15:45, 10 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hello. I think you are missing the point here. What you are bringing is not the Islamic view of Ezra; unless you profess to worship Ezra as a god?! You are bringing the Quranic view of the Jewish view of Ezra, something completely different. As such, it is a point that belongs in the detailed discussions about the Islamic view of Ezra, and not in the main Ezra article.

It is an established fact that Khushwant Singh did criticize him in his column. But you edited out my insertion about it out. Do you believe that my claim is bogus ? Also it is a known fact that his famous statement "...all muslims should be terrorists.." was a cause of worry for many an Indian, mostly among the responsible islamic establishments in India who are working hard to remove the stereotype misconceptions about islam.

Speedy deletion of Template:Infobox Mughal Emperor

edit

A tag has been placed on Template:Infobox Mughal Emperor requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section T3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a deprecated or orphaned template.

If the template is intended to be substituted, please feel free to remove the speedy deletion tag and please consider putting a note on the template's page indicating that it is substituted so as to avoid any future mistakes (<noinclude>{{transclusionless}}</noinclude>).

File source problem with File:Fatima hall olf.jpg

edit
 

Thank you for uploading File:Fatima hall olf.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kelly hi! 16:25, 28 November 2015 (UTC)Reply
