== Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 25 March 2024 == |
|
== Has anyone got a reference for the claim about Thomas Blom Hansen? == |
|
|
I was just adding some new content to the article when I noticed this statement ''Thomas Blom Hansen, a sociologist at the University of Edinburgh, has written Naik's style of memorizing the Qur'an and hadith literature in various languages, and travelling abroad to debate Islam with theologians, has made him extremely popular in Muslim circles''. I've tried google-ing for Hansen in the current context and come up with nothing except some personal blogs and articles which have the same statement printed VERBATIM. Does anyone have any citations/references for this? ] (]) 13:18, 19 June 2008 (UTC) |
|
|
:Please look at the references section. Elazeez, I disagree with the addition of more content sourced to primary sources - it is only acceptable incases where Naik is explicitly talking about himself. If this is not the case, and we are instead making deductions on the basis of primary sources, then this material is ] and should be removed. Additionally, there should certainly be no reliance upon primary sources in an article, which I feel is a trend developing here. ] 13:28, 19 June 2008 (UTC) |

::Secondary sources are very important in helping us to objectively evaluate what should be in a BLP and what should not. Some go so far as to suggest that only material in print biographies should be used, but that is not a consensus view. We need to be thoughtful, caring, and careful. We have time to get it right. Find the best sources and include the most encyclopedic claims. ] (]) 00:54, 21 June 2008 (UTC) |

I performed edit because, on a search, I couldn't find any reference in the source article to the claim that Singh had criticised Naik for a claim that "Eating pork makes one behave like a pig". Singh does take issue with Naik's characterization of pigs as unclean animals (not big news--Naik is a muslim, Singh is not) but does not represent Singh as making the claim quoted in the article. Please check the source and verify. --] 00:59, 21 June 2008 (UTC) |

== Sub-sections == |

|

I created the sub-sections, because it improves the readability of the article a lot. They are removed by another user because |
|
|
a) they are Prospective Troll Magnets |
|
|
b) Can't mention ALL his visits here so no cherry-picking. |
|
|
|
|
|
It may be true. However, in this way medium-interested people wouldn't be eager to read this amount of continuous text. Furthermore, I believe the mentioned visits of Naik caused some stirr in the press, so they are noteworthy enough to get an apart sub-section. So let us vote: who agrees or disagrees with subsections? |

:'''I disagree''' because I feel that making sections like these could give an impression like Dr. Naik's delivered only these (3) lectures and all of them have been subjects of controversy. Moreover since cannot include information about all his lectures/visits, it might seem that these 3 were the most note-worthy ones with the criticisms being the highlights. Besides, if we have sections criticising his visits, they ''might'' become prospective ] over a period of time with editors concentrating on adding more to those respective sections rather than to the article as a whole. ] (]) 11:06, 23 June 2008 (UTC) |

::: The only problem with that, Jeff, is that there are too many of them out there. (I heard the number being around 800+).

Hence for any more details of Dr. Naik's lectures to get into this article, they would need reliable media coverage.

This by the ] claims that Naik was granted Saudi citizenship. Following this report, many other news agencies cited it and published similar news, such as and . Both cited the MEMO report; however, Naik himself these reports, stating, {{green| “It (news of Saudi citizenship) is false, unless Allah wills. This is how the media even prints gossip as facts.”}} Given that Naik has denied the report and is currently residing in Malaysia, should we consider removing this information?

It's like some nutcase saying ''Agnistus believes in Hinduism, which is same religious ideology which hardened terrorist Maya Dolas followed all through his career as an extortionist''. Don't get me wrong, I hate Dolas but I totally respect your religious views (''See Qur'an 6:108 which beckons muslims to respect other communities'').
