Anqa moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Anqa, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Misplaced Pages). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Misplaced Pages's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Hello, أبو السعد 22! I'm CASSIOPEIA. I have replied to your question about a submission at the WikiProject Articles for Creation Help Desk. CASSIOPEIA 17:31, 16 May 2019 (UTC)

Language

Hello أبو السعد 22. I notice from your username and contributions that you cannot speak English very well; you seem to be more fluent in Arabic. If that is the case, you may want to contribute to the Arabic-language Misplaced Pages instead (your contributions would be more welcome there), or one in another language (there are over 250!). Of course, you are still welcome to contribute here at the English Misplaced Pages, if that is what you prefer. Geolodus (talk) 05:12, 30 May 2019 (UTC)

Category: Devils

Hello, first welcome to the English Wiki, and I see you engage in many interesting topics. I have seen you before for a while, since we share some interests regarding the topics. But I have a question regarding the Category: Devils. What exactly are supposed to be included? All lesser devils, such as "Shayatin", "fallen angels" and "ifrit" or just "devils" in the sense of "a great evil within a specific worldview, like "Satan", "Iblis", "Ahriman"? I think the first is rather close to "demons". The second close to "Category: Satan". I personally would prefer a category for "devil" instead of "Satan" anyway.--VenusFeuerFalle (talk) 19:29, 4 January 2020 (UTC)

Houris and Nymphs

Hi أبو السعد 22! I've noticed that you have an interest on the correlation between the correlation between houris and nymphs. Our Category: Nymphs page states that: "In Greek mythology, a nymph is any member of a large class of female nature spirits, sometimes bound to a particular location or landform. Nymphs often accompanied various gods and goddesses, and were the frequent target of lusty satyrs." Houris appear to be physical beings, not spirits, are not semi-divine, and their virginity is constantly emphasized, thus leaving no correlation except being female characters in a religious tradition and that both terms are used in English for female beauties. Given that this is not the subject of either article, I have removed all references to nymphs which have been added. I would love to hear your perspective/ research on this issue, however! - Moonlight2001 (talk) 21:36, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

Succubus and Incubus

These articles are not improved by adding "fiend" in place of "demon." Fiend is a disambiguation page and currently lists "demon" as one definition. Pointing readers to the Demon article is best. And "demon" is what the sources state (usually anyway). Flyer22 Frozen (talk) 23:27, 16 February 2020 (UTC)

Regarding this, you can explain as much as you want to, but what I stated about Fiend being a disambiguation page that you should not be pointing readers to still stands. What I stated about what reliable sources state still stands. Do not WP:Edit war over this. It makes no sense to point readers to Fiend when it's a disambiguation page and currently lists "demon" as one definition. That is circular. Flyer22 Frozen (talk) 00:09, 19 February 2020 (UTC)
