Thank you for putting in the link to Hasans' 2007 Presentation. Probably more related to Hasans' 'bigraphy' page, but as I and apprently you weren't much in favour of that at this stage, they can find it themselves. --220.101.28.25 (talk) 01:29, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

Mass deletions
Take a look at User:Qworty, he's pretty much edit warring in the name of BLP (can be deleted immediately without discussion) by deleting any connection between the fort hood shooter, the Dar al-Hijrah mosque, intercepts of communications, Anwar al-Awlaki, etc across many articles. Any attempt to restore these are immediately reverted under the same justification. Seeing how some people are confronted, threatened and banned within 24 hours for infractions as minori as using Fox News as a source in violation of BLP, isn't this the sort of guy you could characterize as having a negative effect on the WP if you can't even state Hasan's attending the mosque, or being under investigation by the FBI? Nothing indicates that anybody has confronted this guy. Would this be worth having an administrator look at it? Bachcell (talk) 21:15, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

(rv guilt by association; blatant BLP violation) Hasan had attended the Dar al-Hijrah mosque in Falls Church, Virginia, in 2001, at the same time as Nawaf al-Hazmi and Hani Hanjour, two of the September 11 hijackers. However, it is not known if Hasan ever encountered them.[http://www.knx1070.com/pages/5626076.php? "Hasan's Computer Reveals No Terror Ties," [[KNX (AM)|KNX 1070], November 9, 2009] An army spokesman could not confirm the relatives' statements, and the deputy director of American Muslim Armed Forces and Veterans Affairs released a statement calling the reported harassment "inconsistent" with their records.

Church, Virginia|Falls Church]], Virginia, in 2001. Anwar al-Awlaki an American-born scholar now living in Yemen was the imam there in 2001, while a third hijacker attended his services while in California, and has apparently issued a statement in support of the shootings. The imam was a spiritual adviser to the hijackers, and Hasan has been reported to have deep respect for al-Awlaki's teachings. Awlaki has been called "one of the principal jihadi luminaries for would-be homegrown terrorists," and Awlaki's lecture on "Constants on the Path of Jihad" is similar to an Al Qaeda document, and is a "bible for lone-wolf Muslim extremists." After the attack, Awlaki praised Hasan for the shooting; on his personal website, he encouraged other Muslims serving in the military to "follow in the footsteps of men like Nidal." Awlaki teaches at Iman University headed by Abdul Majeed al-Zindani who has been designated "Specially Designated Global Terrorist" by the US Treasury Department. Zindani also appears on the UN 1267 Committee's list of individuals belonging to or associated with al-Qaeda.

- ABC News has reported that U.S. officials were aware that Hasan had attempted to contact Al Qaeda. Also according to ABC News Hasan had "more unexplained connections to people being tracked by the FBI" than just radical cleric Anwar al-Awlaki.

 * Even should he be acquitted or not charged with anything, he would be notable for having received massive media coverage as the prime suspect in the case. Conviction of a crime is not a factor in our inclusion criteria for biographies. We do have articles about people other than convicted criminals, you know.  Sandstein   06:38, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

Hasan had attended the Dar al-Hijrah mosque in Falls Church, Virginia, in 2001, at the same time as two of the September 11 hijackers, Nawaf al-Hazmi and Hani Hanjour, and about the same time as Ahmed Omar Abu Ali, who was convicted of providing material support to al Qaeda and conspiracy to assassinate President George W. Bush. However, it is not known if Hasan ever encountered them.

It's looking like the whole fort hood thing was organized by Al Queda in Iraq people. Who do you think should look into if any of the people on WP are coming in from Yemen??

I noticed the message you recently left to User talk:LandonMcCullough. Please remember: do not bite the newcomers. If you see someone make a common mistake, try to politely point out what they did wrong and how to correct it. Thank you. After Midnight 0001 19:59, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
 * I removed the final warning msg. as overkill, as I think I may have misinterpreted his post on the page as vandalism when it was not. I think the others were justified - he was writing in the first person in the article, as I recall - so I left them, but I'm not 100% sure as the article is deleted and so are the diffs. --JohnnyB256 (talk) 01:21, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Good deal. Thanks for reconsidering. I agree that something was amiss, it was just the final warning for vandalism that seemed a bit too much for me. --After Midnight 0001 01:25, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Reversions
Any topic considered notable enough for Wikipedia is notable enough for inclusion on the date events' pages. I believe the removal of wikilinks as benign as these is probably vandalism. Cla68 (talk) 09:03, 26 December 2009 (UTC)
 * If we had an article titled Notice by Robertson of intent to BusinessWeek then that argument might be arguable. But we don't have an article on that event. Nor do we have an article on the Out-of-court settled of Robertson v. McGraw-Hill Co., Weiss, and Shepard. Even if the individual events were notable, that is not sufficient to merit a slot in a very short list.   Will Beback    talk    09:51, 26 December 2009 (UTC)
 * I would also caution Cla68 not to throw around terms like "vandalism." When text is removed in good faith, it is not vandalism, and in this case it appears that two other editors have reached the same conclusion. --JohnnyB256 (talk) 14:05, 26 December 2009 (UTC)
