* [[Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons controversy]] Who would have guessed Wikipedia might attract writers with a pro-free-speech POV? Editors of this article have slanted it heavily toward describing the controversy as between religious zealotry and the ideal of free speech, and have excluded content that explains the context of ethnic hate speech or current regional conflict.

* [[Istihlal]] is something like the crime of making up an Islamic law, recently in the news when a group of Spanish Muslims accused [[Osama bin Laden]] of the crime. --[[User:Dmcdevit|Dmcdevit]] 23:49, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)
* [[List of Islamic educational institutions]]: created this and would like people to add and expand it. There are almost no resources on the web--or anywhere that I can find, actually, on institutions like the ''Haqqania'' madarassa in northern Pakistan, where the [[Taliban]] leadership was educated. Or the historical universities in the Muslim world--other than [[Al-Azhar University]].[[User:IFaqeer|<nowiki></nowiki>]]&mdash;[[User:IFaqeer|iFaqeer]] [[User talk:IFaqeer|(Talk to me!)]] 20:36, Mar 1, 2005 (UTC)
* Should we also have a [[Wikipedia:Islam and Muslim World-regional notice board]]? I would want to do that, but only if we can get people with more than one kind of POV involved.[[User:IFaqeer|<nowiki></nowiki>]]&mdash;[[User:IFaqeer|iFaqeer]] [[User talk:IFaqeer|(Talk to me!)]] 20:36, Mar 1, 2005 (UTC)

* I have put in a request for [[Wikipedia:Wikiportal/Muslim World]] at [[Wikipedia:Wikiportal]][[User:IFaqeer|<nowiki></nowiki>]]&mdash;[[User:IFaqeer|iFaqeer]] [[User talk:IFaqeer|(Talk to me!)]] 02:54, Mar 11, 2005 (UTC)
* See [[Tripoli]], I listed under Developing countries section. --[[User:Dmcdevit|Dmcdevit]] 04:36, 14 Mar 2005 (UTC)
* The [[Islamism]] article ignores the concept of [[Ad-Din]] built into the religion. [[User:Raphael1|Raphael1]] 13:29, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
* Contrary to the [[antisemitism]], [[racism]], [[Xenophobia]] or [[Negrophobia]] articles the [[Islamophobia]] article contains a section called "Criticism of the concept". [[User:Raphael1|Raphael1]] 13:29, 14 April 2006 (UTC) 
*[[Ayatollah Sayyid Hossein Kazemeini Boroujerdi]] [http://www.opendemocracy.net/democracy-irandemocracy/ayatollah_3965.jsp] Iranian dissident shia leader. --[[User:Varano|Varano]] 11:32, 6 October 2006 (UTC)

====Requests for expansion====
*[[Al-islam.org]] Apparently a large & popular website and forum (most popular, according to Yahoo) regarding Shia Islam, but the article is severely a stub.
*[[Shalash al-Iraqi]] - I started this article after reading about him on an Iraqi's blog, and after doing some research I was unable to find any information on him that wasn't from other bloggers. I ended up using these as references anyway, I know that's not the ideal Wikipedia standard, but the blogs seem to suggest that he's very notable in Iraq. Is there anyone who has read a print article about him or can translate better web sources from Arabic, perhaps? Also, I'd appreciate a message on my talk page if this article is nominated for deletion. --[[User:The Famous Movie Director|Grace]] 07:28, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

====Requests for review====
*[[Sünbül Efendi]] - this article has been posted to [[Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Sunbul Effendi|VfD]].  I believe the topic is notable but there is an issue with transcription: apparently the correct spelling would be Sümbül Efendi (alternate Sünbül Efendi). [http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=%22S%C3%BCmb%C3%BCl+efendi%22&btnG=Search Google] returns 179 results but most of them not in English. There are also alternate spellings like Sümbül Efendi, Sünbül Efendi, &#350;eyh Sümbül, Sümbül Sinan, Sünbül Sinan etc.--[[User:AYArktos|AYArktos]] 22:09, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

*[[Baháʼí Faith]]--Currently the editing of this entry (and related entries) is dominated by Baha'is, who take the opportunity to downplay criticisms and in general slant their information in predictable directions. Please consider this a call for non-Baha'i editors to come have a look at the site, and help ensure balance. Thank you. [[User:Dawud|Dawud]] 10:44, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

* I have concerns that the [[anti-Americanism]] article promotes stereotypes of the Middle East. This is mostly a bias of inclusion rather than omission, but I dislike the one-sided, slanted view. [[Anti-Americanism#Middle East and Africa]]. Help in trimming it would be welcome. [[User:Noloop|Noloop]] ([[User talk:Noloop|talk]]) 17:37, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

===Evangelical Protestantism===
* [[Carlton Pearson]] - [[Tulsa, Oklahoma]]-based African American preacher and theologian, long a protegé of [[Oral Roberts]]&mdash;also an advisor to Bush on faith-based initiatives, had a TV show, etc.,&mdash;whose theology began to change in the late 1990s, when he decided that there is no Hell (or, more precisely, turned around to a rather existentialist view of Hell being something we make on earth, but not part of the afterlife). This eventually evolved into the [[Doctrine of Inclusion]]: that everyone is saved. As a result, his enormous [[Higher Dimensions]] [http://www.higherd.org/] megachurch slowly collapsed, though, with his new theology, he again has a congregation numbering at least into the hundreds. Fascinating figure. Recent hour-long radio story about him on [[This American Life]] [http://www.thislife.org/], but as of when I'm writing they haven't archived it to a permanent address. Founder of a Christian music festival that I believe is called [[Azuza]], as well. -- [[User:Jmabel|Jmabel]] | [[User talk:Jmabel|Talk]] 19:24, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
