Is Shia Islam created by Iranians?

This is a discursive essay rather than an encyclopedia article and I don’t think Wikipedia is the place for it. It belongs on someone’s Wordpress site. Mccapra (talk) 21:45, 10 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete But maybe some of the info could be included on the page "Shia Islam in Iran" if it is not already. Zaynab1418 (talk) 22:14, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete. Can't find the Wordpress site, but no copyvios detected via the tool. Doesn't make sense to merge this to Shia, as the content is either already there or violates all sorts of POV/OR rules, and Shia itself links to plenty of other pages for more detail. Redirecting doesn't make sense because this is plainly an op-ed title, not something encyclopedic. Iseult   Δx parlez moi 21:51, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
 * sorry - to be clear, I’m not saying this is copied from a Wordpress site. I’m saying it properly belongs on a Wordpress site about Shia islam rather than in an encyclopedia. I agree redirecting or merging won’t work. Mccapra (talk) 22:24, 10 June 2022 (UTC)
