Oran fatwa
HaEr48, I discussed the lead with Jonesey95 at User talk:Jonesey95, and we agreed that the lead contained some unnecessary repetition. Jonesey95 also thought there was too much detail in the lead. So I removed the repetition and some details. I think the lead is more concise and perhaps more the right length for the size of the article. If you think some of the detail ought to be put back, let me know and I'll try to work it in to the sentences (or you can do it). Perhaps the phrase "responsum fatwa" can be explained in its own short paragraph (as suggested by Jonesey95) in the body of the article. Also, can you check to be sure the references are correct since I did a little cutting and re-arranging. I saw there were two references from the same author, with one from 2005 and the other from 2007, both page 60 though. I cut one out, but don't know if I cut the right one out, or if both are still needed.

Also, I cut out the month in which the fatwa was issued. You might add that somewhere in the body of the article. Corinne (talk) 01:06, 17 February 2016 (UTC)


 * Thank you Corinne for the copy-editing. Your shortening of the lead looks good to me. As for sources, I think you did the correct thing there. I guess you refer to Harvey 2005 p.60, and that is the correct one. There is no Harvey 2007, if there was probably I entered it by mistake. Again, thanks for doing this!

 * You're welcome! You can see what I deleted in the revision history. I'll keep watching the article, so if you add material, I'll look it over. The article was interesting. Corinne (talk) 02:35, 17 February 2016 (UTC)
