Several administrators are trying to remove the criticism section because they believe it violates the "good faith" policy. Of course, this is a misunderstanding because this is not a talk page but a criticism section in an article. In a "criticism section" you get criticism, there is no assumption of good faith here. <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 00:41, 24 October 2009 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

Hi,
Well, you will need to prove that the points listed under criticism are really trivia and not neutral.


Whom do I need to coordinate with to put in an Arabic Misplaced Pages Page? Requesting your assistance, please.
First, technically, your claims are invalid since the criticism section is very coherent (it is not a listing of miscellaneous points) and the points listed under it are all directly related to the clearly meaningful title of the section, which is "criticism." You need to show how this is a trivia section? You seem to know the titles of the laws but not how to apply them in real situations.


Thank you,
Your other claim, neutrality, is even less valid, because this is a ''criticism'' section-- if it were neutral then it would have deserved to be deleted since it would not make sense. The section simply lists critical points.

:If you have relevant Arabic-language skills, and have useful information to contribute in a way that respects the rules, then you don't have to ask anyone's permission -- you can start editing right away. If you lack those prerequisites, it would probably be better not to get directly involved, though there's an "Embassy" page for non-Arabic speakers. ] (]) 19:19, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
Now to the discussion of your ulterior, emotion-based motives. How can you call by trivia such serious criticism as accusing the encyclopedia of having systemic bias in Islam-related topics, and noting that over 60% of its articles are stubs (which usually means they contain nothing at all but the title), etc. You are obviously biased yourself since you're an administrator in Misplaced Pages, but the Arabic Wiki is nothing like the English Wiki at all, it is just 100,000 empty pages with administrators who mostly do nothing but enjoying trips to the Wiki conventions.

Arabic Misplaced Pages Page

Hi,

Whom do I need to coordinate with to put in an Arabic Misplaced Pages Page? Requesting your assistance, please.

Thank you, Dsouza Josh (talk) 10:55, 7 March 2022 (UTC)Dsouza_Josh

If you have relevant Arabic-language skills, and have useful information to contribute in a way that respects the rules, then you don't have to ask anyone's permission -- you can start editing right away. If you lack those prerequisites, it would probably be better not to get directly involved, though there's an "Embassy" page for non-Arabic speakers. AnonMoos (talk) 19:19, 7 March 2022 (UTC)

Neutrality lost?

Isn't the changing of the colors of the wikipedia symbol to the colors of the Palestinian flag violates Misplaced Pages's professed principals of Neutrality? Hebrew Misplaced Pages's symbol isn't colored Blue-White... 89.208.62.122 (talk) 10:09, 26 December 2023 (UTC)

If you want to raise a formal complaint, you'd have to do so somewhere on Meta.Wikimedia.org, not here. Anyway, they were the colors of the 1917 Flag of the Arab Revolt before Palestine, and are known as Pan-Arab colors... AnonMoos (talk) 14:35, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
Yeah but you didn't answer their question 78.147.35.211 (talk) 04:26, 10 January 2024 (UTC)
