Talk:Islamophobia in Australia

Untitled
I don't understand why importance is low, this is very important discussion??? Islaminaustralia (talk) 06:58, 19 January 2015 (UTC)
 * Projects mark articles on their importance, bring it up there. Top-importance articles would be those such as History of Australia or Economy of Australia, without which the encyclopedia's coverage of Australia would be sorely lacking. Those are the kinds of articles would still be of top importance 100 years ago had Wikipedia existed, and are near certain to still be as important 100 years into the future. &#39;&#39;&#39;tAD&#39;&#39;&#39; (talk) 21:16, 17 February 2015 (UTC)

Recent edits
Given that islamophobia is both the subject of this article, and a genuine thing, the recent edits presenting it as a discredited or non-existent concept are rather disruptive. The article has a section discussing the views of Australian commentators who reject the concept or how it's typically applied. Nick-D (talk) 10:06, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

Thanks. Sadly there is a significant number of contributors who vexatiously edit pages about Islamophobia and Islamophobic groups, hoping to portray what are clearly unreasonable criticisms of Islam as being legitimate criticisms. Many of them are sectarian in nature. Bacondrum (talk) 02:03, 25 February 2018 (UTC)

Un sourced generalisations
"From the late 1980s to the early 2000s, Australia turned from being welcoming to Arab and Muslims."Italic text Have removed this uncited gross generalisation from the lead for fairly obvious reasons. Please provide some strong arguments for its inclusion. I'm sure you could reword it to reflect the pockets of society who are opposed to Islam as opposed to the existing suggestion of the entire country. And yes, removal was not vandalism as suggested in edit summary. Perhaps that was an out of habit typo? Alexandre8 (talk) 15:52, 5 August 2016 (UTC)
 * As an after thought, perhaps you could include a sentence such as "between the 1980's to the year 2000, Australia experienced an increase in anti-Islamic sentiment" + source? as an alternative. Just for take of clarity, I am not, nor do I believe any right minded person, denying anti Islam opinion's existence Alexandre8 (talk) 16:36, 5 August 2016 (UTC)

Hate groups, neo-nazis and associated far-right groups that unreasonably target Islam and Muslims
Australia has a number of far right hate and neo-Nazi groups that have morphed into anti-Islam groups over recent decades with well known neo-fascists like Neil Erikson, Shermon Burgess, Jim Saleam and Blair Cottrell turning their focus from opposing Asian immigration to opposing Islam. I'm after consensus before I add a small section on these groups. So, do other contributors think it would be reasonable to add a section on this fairly recent re posturing and targeting of Muslims by such groups? - these four in particular:
