Hi - I see you have recently created a new stub type. As it states at Misplaced Pages:Stub, at the top of most stub categories, and in many other places on Misplaced Pages, it is recommended that new stub types are proposed prior to creation at Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Stub sorting/Proposals, in order to check whether the new stub type is already covered by existing stub types, whether it is named according to stub naming guidelines, whether it reaches the standard threshold for creation of a new stub type, and whether it crosses existing stub type hierarchies. Your new stub type is currently listed at WP:WSS/D - please feel free to make any comments there as to any rationale for this stub type. And please, in future, consider proposing new stub types first! Grutness...wha? 10:26, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

Deletion of links from 72 virgins

Please explain why you deleted these two links:

• Virgins? What virgins?
• Devotion, desire drive youths to 'martyrdom'

Non-scholarly secondary sources.--Kirby♥time 05:54, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

Please sign what you've written about consensus building.--Sa.vakilian(t-c) 09:12, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

kirby, "scholarly" is not a requirement for external links. All that matters is the relevance. Read WP:EL.--Matt57 11:49, 21 April 2007 (UTC)

I was referring to the use of those sites as sources. Misplaced Pages:Manual_of_Style_(Islam-related_articles)#Sources--Kirby♥time 01:00, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

What is the exact policy from that page that disqualifies those sites as sources? --Matt57 04:00, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

WP:REDFLAG--Kirby♥time 06:23, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Whats REGFLAG'ish about the links you took down? --Matt57 07:35, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Stop trolling, you know perfectly well.--Kirby♥time 09:55, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Huh? Why dont you have any explanation for what you did? I will restore the links. I'll see what to do if you delete them again. --Matt57 11:51, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

I understand you have great regard for your religion, but can you explain why you're deleting the sourced quote from 72 virgins? If you delete text again from this article without discussing it on the Talk page, I will take this to the authorities e.g. an RfC or something. --Matt57 11:52, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
