Faraazs, I removed your edits to the Muhammad article. They were uniformly pious, Muslim POV, and often asserted as fact matters that are hotly debated -- either within the Muslim community, or by Western academic scholars, or both. As editors, we have to step back from what we personally believe and simply state, in neutral terms, what the notable views on the subject are. This is a hard discipline and one that takes time and mistakes to learn. I can't say that I've fully learned it myself; perhaps no one has. But it's the ideal that makes writing this encyclopedia possible. Zora 18:18, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
