I have reverted three of your four edits to the Aga Khan article, for three reasons:
 * You removed information without explaining why. You need to explain on the Talk:Aga Khan page whenever you're removing a chunk of text that has been in place for a while.
 * Much of what you posted belongs in the articles about the individuals who held the title; the Aga Khan article is intended only (a) for discussion of that title, and (b) as a place for summaries of those who've held it, with links to the full articles about those individuals.
 * While your text mentioned sources for some of the information you posted, much of it lacked sources, and you didn't use the footnote system in place when you did mention a source. Since your information seemed to have a strong point of view, it's absolutely critical that you provide sources for it, so other editors can evaluate its accuracy.

You clearly have a lot to add to Wikipedia; I hope you're not here simply to edit one article (or a small set of related articles), and I hope you'll take some time to learn our rules before you (re)post controversial/contentious text. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 21:12, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
