Removed unencyclopedic content: This man is a great player and a great role model for the Islamic and Lebanese community of Australia. He acts the way people should. Cdh1984 13:39, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

Lebanon[edit]

Has he has played in the Lebanon national rugby league team?--Jeff79 07:22, 1 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

World Cup 2000, he was Captain. Londo06 21:09, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Surely worth a mention. I will insert one.--Jeff79 00:57, 11 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Children[edit]

Having just watched the State of Origin game 3 interview with him at the end of the match, i'm pretty sure he said that he had a daughter and 2 sons? Can any confirm this? Nicwright 12:09, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • I can confirm that Vossy is a bit of munt for thinking Tripoli is a little village, but don't know if there would be a way to confirm the children bit. Londo06 12:12, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
he said one son. and I've added reference to his family now. Michellecrisp 01:13, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

HUGE IDEOLOGICAL BIAS[edit]

I feel strongly that the sentence: "El Masri is a devout Muslim who has become a positive role model for many young Australians" should be altered or completely removed. It has a massive ideological agenda.

It has the same agenda as the following: "such-in-such is a devout Nazi/Christian/Nationalist/Conservative/Whatever...and therefore is a positive role model for many young Australians".

I don't consider his devout religiousity or his veiled wife to be a positive role model. I don't believe Wikipedia should be endorsing any form of "devoutness" and should instead report circumstances rather than endorse them. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Davidrose (talkcontribs)

Make sure you check under your bed, and behind your door, there might be a non-Anglo-Saxon hiding there, waiting to spring out and force diversity upon you. Oh nos!
Regardless of your beliefs, it is a fact that El Masri is considered a role-model within the general community. I have separated the fact that he is a devout Muslim from the fact that he is widely respected in the general community by splitting the sentence. Florrie 05:55, 6 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Lebanese-Australian following[edit]

Currently, the article reads:

The Canterbury Bulldogs have a large Lebanese-Australian following due to players such as El Masri, Rod Silva and Craig Polla-Mounter.

Eh? Neither Silva nor Polla-Mounter is Lebanese, so more information would be required to make this sentence make sense. Ordinary Person (talk) 07:25, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Euro Nations[edit]

Named in the train-on squad by the Lebanese, have restored him to a current player, from retired and and adjusted the retirement section to reflect his retirement from the NRL competition. Were he pull out of the Lebanon squad he should then be restored to former player status. Lando09 (talk) 18:25, 28 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If he plays for Lebanon, 2009 can be added to the infobox, otherwise it's just crystal-balling. Being named in a training squad wish-list is not the same as selection. It's far easier to reference an event after the fact, than before. As it stands with your edit, the infobox is misleading.  florrie  00:22, 29 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
