- Quran states:"O my son, verily every matter, whether good or bad, though it be the weight of a grain of mustard-seed, and be hidden in a rock, or in the heavens,
or in the earth, God will bring the same to light; for God is clear-sighted and knowing. O my son, be constant at prayer, and command that which is just, and forbid that which is evil: and be patient under the afflictions which shall befall thee; for this is a duty absolutely incumbent on all men. Distort not thy face out of contempt to men, neither walk in the earth with insolence; for God loveth no arrogant, vain-glorious person." (Lokman - verses 16-18). (same information in the Holy Bible)
- A wiseman once said: Nowadays like with all things everything is traceable. Nothing can be done to change things in the past no matter how much money someone spends
- I believe: The really good thing about history with respect to vandalism in Wikipedia: Is that its truths cannot be changed. It may be misrepresented for a whole (a day, a month, a year or a decade or even several hundred years before it is corrected) but in the end, its (actual historical facts) truths and essence cannot be changed.
Note my Persian page has some notes [[1]] on Nezami and other topics and it is being watched.. and will be locked. This incase my English page is vandalized. Thanks.
My comment on a recent vandalism with regards to Nezami Ganjavi [2]. See also overview of such vandalisms here: [3][4]
Some academic sources on Iran, SE ASIA, Middle East, Caucasus and in general:
- Encyclopaedia of Islam
- Encyclopaedia Iranica (www.iranica.com)
- Britannica (?) (this is an okay source but has many mistakes..its writers depending on the article may or may not be professionals)
- www.jstor.org JSTOR
- www.scholar.google.com Google Scholar (note check to see if the scholar is an expert on the general subject)
- www.books.google.com Google Books (note check to see if the book is specialized on a specific topic and has obtained good reviews specific to the subject)
- Journals such as Iran and the Caucasus (journal)
Always make sure the sources that are used are not random google books/scholars but rather they are from specialized authors in the area. This will improve the quality of the sources.
An example of two articles that can get constantly vandalized: [5][6]
"O you who have believed, let not a people ridicule [another] people; perhaps they may be better than them; nor let women ridicule [other] women; perhaps they may be better than them. And do not insult one another and do not call each other by [offensive] nicknames. Wretched is the name of disobedience after [one's] faith. And whoever does not repent - then it is those who are the wrongdoers." (Quran:49-11) (same information in the Holy Bible)
WP:FRINGE:"Subjects receive attention in Wikipedia in proportion to the level of detail in the sources from which the article is written. For example, if the only references to a particular subject are in news sources, then a level of detail which is greater than that which appears in these news sources is inappropriate, because Wikipedia policy prohibits original research. This policy strongly encourages the collection and organization of information from existing secondary sources, and allows for careful use of primary sources in addition to these; such information is not "original research", but "source-based research", which is essential to writing an encyclopedia."
WP:Verifiability "The appropriateness of any source depends on the context. In general, the best sources have a professional structure in place for checking or analyzing facts, legal issues, evidence, and arguments; as a rule of thumb, the greater the degree of scrutiny given to these issues, the more reliable the source." WP:FRINGE WP:WEIGHT WP:RS WP:NPOV
WP:MEDRS: "Wikipedia policies on the neutral point of view and not using original research demand that we present the prevailing medical or scientific consensus, which can be found in recent, authoritative review articles or textbooks and some forms of monographs. Although significant-minority views are welcome in Wikipedia, such views must be presented in the context of their acceptance by experts in the field. Additionally, the views of tiny minorities need not be reported."
