• Note: Some people apparently were searching with way too narrow inputs. For example, 44 results for "everybody draw" and "south park". Cheers, -- Cirt (talk) 02:49, 28 April 2010 (UTC)

Mohammed Image Archive

• Mohammed Image Archive I don't know how to edit wikipedia but here's a related source - the idea that Muslims prohibit anyone from drawing Mohammed, is suspect from the fact that they themselves have often drawn him. http://zombietime.com/mohammed_image_archive/ "The Mohammed Image Archive is a compendium of images that depict Mohammed (the 7th-century founder of Islam), spanning all historical periods, cultures and genres. The inspiration for this Archive came from the global controversy over the publication of Mohammed cartoons in the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten, and the need for a comprehensive and even-handed look at the wide variety of Mohammed depictions in Islamic and Western societies from the Middle Ages until today. It will remain online as a resource for those interested in freedom of expression." Friendly Person (talk) 19:06, 29 April 2010 (UTC)
• A disrespectful image, a photo, is on the back cover of Amazon.com's "How Fatima Started Islam: Mohammad's Daughter Tells It All" by the American author Noor Barack. This is part of a book highly insulting to every tenet of orthodox Islam by depicting Mohammad as a urine-soaked, drunken pimp and child molester who stumbles on to Islam and is used by his intelligent daughter to start the religion. The back cover photo has Mohammad in his normal role as Mecca's town drunk.

Piss Christ

Piss Christ must replace the items "Andres Serrano – crucifix in urine controversy National Endowment for the Arts controversy" in the "See also", since the two are about the controversy for which "Piss Christ" us a direct link. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.146.68.48 (talk) 19:42, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

 Done. -- Cirt (talk) 19:45, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

BTW, is there a wikipedia article about a 2006 case of "Iranian newspaper to hold contest for cartoons on the Holocaust", in retaliation for caricatures of Muhammed? If yes, then IMO it may be mentioned in "See also". (showing that 'Draw Mohammed Day' was not exactly an original idea of a drawing campaign.) 71.146.68.48 (talk) 19:55, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

I do not think that there is such an article, but you could try searching for it. -- Cirt (talk) 19:56, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

Oh, that's new. Usually they suicide-bomb at us whenever they're annoyed. Good for them. HalfShadow 19:58, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

Actually I've found it using google on wikipedia! : International Holocaust Cartoon Competition. By the way, this my search revealed other interestion hits, such as Israeli antisemitic cartoons contest. 71.146.68.48 (talk) 20:25, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

 Done, added the two links suggested by 71.146.68.48 (talk · contribs). -- Cirt (talk) 20:30, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
