Autobiography[edit]

Though the user submitting this article (myself) and the person about whom this biography is written may appear to be the same person due to having the same initials, I (the writer) assure all administrators that this is not an autobiography. I further recommend and invite all concerned to perform research using Arabic internet searches to verify that this article is indeed based on actual facts about a notable person. Additionally, all concerned people are invited to examine local Jordanian newspapers and the "Simplified Arab Encyclopedia" to verify these facts. --Mwbseiso (talk) 20:21, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I did initially tag this article on that basis but removed the tag because even if it had been autobiographical it did appear to assert the importance of the subject. I did not check the references. Ros0709 (talk) 20:17, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Glad that this is resolved. Upon request, all references from physical sources can be provided. --Mwbseiso (talk) 20:21, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In the light of your above concern, perhaps you are not aware that on Wikipedia the onus is on the editor to provide reliable sources for all information. It isn't sufficient to direct us to searching Google in Arabic - it would be best to provide some citations in line with the style recommended by WP:Citing sources and place these in the References section. The two Arabic links you provided should go into an External links section. Green Giant (talk) 01:41, 5 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the heads up and the hints. I will provide proper citations and references as needed within the next 48 hours. --Mwbseiso (talk) 02:00, 5 8 January 2008 (UTC)
