| Hi Redvers, thank you for responding. I'm sorry if my statement seemed offensive. No offense was intended. The material is sourced, there are references provided. It is also a notable term because it was used in reference to Muhammand. The information regarding this pejorative term is taken from the ] article. It seems to me that if a pejorative term for an individual deserves mention in an encyclopedia, it perhaps deserves mention in an article other than that of the person for whom it is a pejorative. If you believe the pejorative does not belong on Misplaced Pages at all, please say so, and please mention this also at the ] article. There has been an edit war going on for some time over this issue, and it was my thought (perhaps mistaken) that moving the mention of the pejorative to its own location might help to alleviate that war. If the information is correct, your input at the talk page of ] could be very useful in helping resolve an edit war. Thanks. --] <font color = "blue"><sup>]</sup></font> 20:24, 21 October 2006 (UTC) | |||

Please do not delete this page while I am writing it.
If you have a problem with this page, please notify me so that we can discuss. The material for this page already exists on Misplaced Pages in another place, and I believe it is more appropriate within the category --BostonMA 20:08, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

There has been an edit war going on for some time over this issue, and it was my thought (perhaps mistaken) that moving the mention of the pejorative to its own location might help to alleviate that war. If the information is correct, your input at the talk page of Muhammad could be very useful in helping resolve an edit war. Thanks. --BostonMA 20:24, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
