Talk:Ruhi Institute

Merger Proposal
there is really no need to duplicate the sequence of courses from Bahá'í_study_circle in an article about the ruhi institute. if there are seperate articles then it would make more sense for the ruhi institute article to expand on the history which lead to the creation of the sequence of courses as well as elaborate on other material it has produced.

with so much duplicate content, both articles are pretty much identical and should be merged.

-- it appears that the sequence section has actually been copied from Bahá'í_study_circle where it has been for some years already, so i am just removing the duplication.

Fair use rationale for Image:Colombia-youth.jpg
Image:Colombia-youth.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Image copyright problem with Image:Ruhi 1.jpg
The image Image:Ruhi 1.jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check


 * That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for the use in this article.
 * That this article is linked to from the image description page.

 * Two related papers:

body of research
The previous section reviewed various sources, most of which have now been included in the body of the article (some remain in the "further reading" section.) If there is a need to discuss them we can here perhaps. Something to keep in mind is that they are reliable sources in a wikipedia sense - various kinds of academic/scholarly publication which is rather the core of what is to be used in wikipedia. Whatever their research has show is what has been shown. Smkolins (talk) 16:34, 7 August 2016 (UTC)

Deleting later sections
I believe the sections outlining the sequence of courses should be removed from the article. They are based entirely on primary, non-independent sources (see WP:PSTS and WP:IS). These sorts of sources can be used judiciously but should not be the main basis of a major part of an article. It wouldn't be such an issue if it were just listing the names of the courses, but since there is also content about them, to ensure WP:NPOV we would need better sources to cover this content. For those who don't know, this is part of a broader problem of poorly sourced content on pages about the Baha'i Faith. Gazelle55 (talk) 23:34, 21 June 2021 (UTC)
