User talk:172/Islam
Your User talk page is too long to safely edit. Can you archive some of it?
There is yet another User:RK sabotage campaign going on, and this time it's particularly egregious.
Could you please have a look at this version of 'Islam as a political movement', and see if you consider it a reasonable home for such terms as Liberal Islam, Political Islam to be explained? As it stands, all of these are being directed by RK and his friends to a disputed article on Islamism, which is certainly political, but not very liberal, and is only a narrow strain of the various ways to interpret Islam politically.
This seems to be part of a deliberate campaign to ignore moderate Islamic reformers, Islamic parties, etc., and label them all as being part of a militant Islam.
Given the over-attention paid to such concepts as Islamofascism and Islamic fundamentalism, and the weak History of Islam article that needs much more detail anyway, it seems hard to avoid detailing the 20th century history of Islam as a political movement, which is very much tied up with that of the Empires it interacted with, and which used it to political ends of their own.
Wikipedia:WikiProject_Islam might be necessary to sort all this out.
However, if the material from Nutting, Sardar, Jansen, etc., gets fair treatment in roughly the right place, that might be enough for now. What is wildly unacceptable is for a protected page on "Islamism" to lay out 200 years of modern Islamic philosophy and then simply equate that to the modern groups involved in terrorism, ignore Islamic parties, and the whole history of Islam as a political movement.
I don't ask for "help" on this, just a fair opinion.
