Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Islam/Criticism of Islam task force

The group is explicitly created to promote articles with a certain POV (i.e. "Criticism") Wikiproject:Islam already exists for all topics regarding Islam to be discussed, a separate group for efforts promoting a negative view is inappropriate. Shams2006 21:16, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep: Does Criticism of Islam also exist to promote a negative view of Islam? It does not and therefore, a collaborative effort to improve articles on the main theme of Criticism of Islam is not promoting a negative view, rather it is striving to improve these articles which is a noble purpose. If "Criticism" looks POV to you, lets rename this taskforce to "Islam and Controversy" taskforce. --Matt57 21:27, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep it clearly states that they the purpose is to improve the quality of a narrow (though there are a fair number of pages) topic. Can you demonstrate that they are doing something other than that? Koweja 01:08, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
