User talk:Lalaji

Lalaji, I reverted your edits to the article on the Succession to Muhammad. You seemed to be trying to use the article as a means to convince people that the Shi'a are right and the Sunni are wrong. Wikipedia can't take sides. We have to describe both views impartially and then leave it up to readers to decide. We can't use emotional language in an attempt to convert people. AND, we can't use interjections like SAW, RA, or PBUH. This is a secular encyclopedia and we do not pay homage to any religious figures. Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, Hindu -- doesn't matter, nobody gets special treatment.

I'm sorry to have to revert your first edits. Allow me to suggest that you could be of more use to Wikipedia -- and the Shi'a -- if you spent some time researching people or shrines or other matters that don't have good articles at the moment. Just look for RED links in articles. That means that someone thinks there should be an article about this matter, but there isn't. Just try to do good research and be fair to all sides, even the Sunni, the Jews, and whoever else is involved. Zora 10:55, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
