Your recent edits
[edit] Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button
or
located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 09:37, 18 April 2012 (UTC)
Formal Warning
[edit]Please note that calling other editors "biased against Muslims" is both misguided, and is a personal attack. This is wholeheartedly unwelcome on this project. Further similar commentary may lead to an immediate block. I have removed it for your benefit.
We have rules and policies - reliable sourcing is not optional, nor is the one on no personal attacks. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 16:42, 20 April 2012 (UTC)

Original research
[edit]We have to be very careful about using primary sources. See WP:PRIMARY - read the whole policy of course, but this is key: "Any interpretation of primary source material requires a reliable secondary source for that interpretation. A primary source may only be used on Wikipedia to make straightforward, descriptive statements of facts that any educated person, with access to the source but without specialist knowledge, will be able to verify are supported by the source. For example, an article about a novel may cite passages to describe the plot, but any interpretation needs a secondary source. Do not analyze, synthesize, interpret, or evaluate material found in a primary source yourself; instead, refer to reliable secondary sources that do so." You are trying to use a primary source to make an argument, and that is something we can't do, you will need a secondary source that meets our criteria at WP:RS.
