Copied content about Revisionist school

[edit]

Hi NGC 628, the content you added here is problematic and needs significant work before it could be appropriate for this article. Aside from some of the prose issues in the first paragraph, the main problems are::

  • Almost all of it was copied from various sections of Revisionist school of Islamic studies but no attribution was indicated to that article. Please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and indicate in your future edit summaries where content was copied from.
  • This material clearly does not belong in the lead, which is supposed to be a summary of the article (see MOS:LEAD). At best, it belongs in the "Early sources and historiography", and it would need to be significantly condensed, since the main article for this topic is Revisionist school of Islamic studies, already linked there, and it does not need to be repeated at length here.
  • Some of the statements and their implications are not very clear on their own.
  • Per WP:NPOV, criticism of this Revisionist school should be mentioned for context, as many of the points described are clearly controversial.
  • Many of the citations are broken because they were copied from elsewhere without copying the corresponding bibliography, and some of the other copied citations are not very clear to begin with, as they mix multiple sources together with no spacing or formatting. See Wikipedia:Citing sources for general guidelines.
  • (Note: You also copied the same material to Rashidun Caliphate even though it doesn't say anything precisely relevant to that article or to the section where it was added. That also creates an unnecessary amount of repetition between articles.)

I would recommend you work on this further in your sandbox, summarize the content and improve the citations to better fit this article, and then bring it back here after. Thanks, R Prazeres (talk) 09:18, 1 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Persistent vandalism on several articles

[edit]

As your editing history demonstrates, you @Selfstarter8: seem to be reverting almost every constructive edit that I made in the last few days, completely out of nowhere and without justification.

Mind you, I have already reported you for your seemingly deliberate and nonsensical disruptive editing on several WP articles. I suggest you to stop and collaborate with other users, and avoid making inappropriate and grossly antisemitic comments in the edit summary, such as this one.
