| ==Info on Islamophobic group== | |||
| Hello, | |||
| What follows are the thoughts, expressed in their own words, and in the 'protest signs', of the obscure, very small, but very vocal 'activist group' known as "Protest Warrior". | |||
| "What's becoming clear is how the religion of Islam is addicted to war and mayhem. Not a radical minority, not a rogue sect, but its very essence is about submission and sacrifice and proving your worth by worshipping death in this life to gain a paradise of orgies and drunkenness. Their entire history is of warfare, and any accomplishments of their so-called Golden Age has been proven to be merely parasitic off the cultures they've conquered and reduced to dhimmi servitude. That every country under sharia is corrupt, belligerent, desolate and barbaric obviously gives them no pause, except to constantly drive them into further psychotic rage as they refuse to ever accept any responsibility for their conditions. They are akin to the powers in Orwell's 1984; there must always be an enemy. It's no surprise that women are treated like property in these countries as that's the only way Muslim men can feed their egos, to dominate others rather than ever actually produce something." | |||
| Kfir Alfia and Alan Lipton, founders of "Protest Warrior" | |||
| Their 'protest signs'... | |||
| I thought you might be interested in this group's sentiments. They are currently very actively editing their own article on Wiki and there is a lot of 'group think'. Perhaps you might want to become involved in the editing and discussion process on that page. If you do, please don't vandalize, and try to remain civil. Should you not want to involve youself, please forgive my intrusion. | |||

| It's not a personal attack, it is a statement of fact. You are putting Scientology's interests before Misplaced Pages's interests by distorting facts. I don't even want to make the accusations myself. Here are the things that other Wikipedians have said: | |||
| ''Good grief. Is Terryeo really suggesting that Muslims, Jews and other religions are represented by the Christian cross? (Hint: there's a reason why it's called the Christian cross.) This is just... wow. -- ChrisO 12:34, 2 September 2006 (UTC)'' | |||
| ''To my knowledge, Scientology has never used any other version of the cross as a symbol other than their eight-pointed version, and Terryeo isn't suggesting that such a thing has ever taken place -- he's suggesting that the traditional "Christian cross" is actually a generic symbol for all religions, not a symbol of Christianity specifically. By the same logic as Terryeo is presenting, if we were for some reason unable to use the Star of David in a template on Judaism, or the inverted pentagram in a template on Satanism, it would be reasonable to use the Christian cross instead -- again, on the dubious premise that the Christian cross means "a generic religion" now. -- Antaeus Feldspar 18:40, 5 September 2006 (UTC)'' | |||
| And of course, there's ] | |||
| It is not a personal ''attack'', it is a personal fact. The only one I was attacking is the corporation of Scientology, by claiming that they use Terryeo as a pawn. Honestly, look at ], which is mostly Scientology related. | |||

Replaceable fair use Image:Hammasa_np6.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Hammasa_np6.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Misplaced Pages articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the image description page and edit it to add
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template. - On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or a similar) image under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that fair use images which could be replaced by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted 7 days after this notification, per our Fair Use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rettetast 16:12, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
