-There is probably going to be a bit of trouble with the categorisation, possibly when it comes to defining the limits between academic books and other books, and very likely when it comes to the border between magazine articles and commentaries. Any ideas regarding a more fool-proof categorisation would be highly appreciated.

-:Indeed, I do not see the difference between ''Newspaper and magazine articles'' and ''Commentaries and columns'' sections. [[User:Visite fortuitement prolongée|Visite fortuitement prolongée]] ([[User talk:Visite fortuitement prolongée|talk]]) 20:52, 19 July 2012 (UTC)

-::The idea was to separate single-author opinion pieces from more thorough articles that have been worked on by a redaction. I thought about it in the same way as the [[WP:RS]] guidelines distinguish between reports and opinion pieces. However, I can see how this could make opinion pieces by experts seem less important than reports by not-so-knowledgeable journalists, so I guess it's not really that straightforward. If you want to merge, it's okay with me until we come up with a better solution.

-::Also, when I think about it, some magazines that aren't scientific journals, hold a far higher standard than most newspapers and other magazines, for instance Foreign Policy, The Economist, Der Spiegel etc. Maybe it's better to have this discussion in relation to some concrete examples. I'll think about it and return later.

-:No, it's not intentional. I just didn't have the time to copy all of the references over from the Eurabia article. In my opinion, there's no need to restrict the size of the list yet, so feel free to copy them over.

-== Where's the references? ==
-[[Eurabia]] is a specific theory of the growth of Arab and Muslim influence in Europe. Where's the references that the books listed in the article adhere to that specific theory? There are many other sources and writers on the growth of Arab or Islamic influences that may arise from ''cultural conservatives'', pro-Zionist advocates, or old-fashioned xenophobic writers. One would like to see references after each book to a review that argues the book in question is advocating Bat Ye'or's theory.

-:"Where's the references that the books listed in the article adhere to [those theories]?" (Jason from nyc) There is at least the books list in Vaïsse (2010, Esprit).

-== Caldwell ==
-We can not include Caldwell as a Eurabia author (conspiracy theory; islamophobia) just because some scholars argue he belongs there. There would have to be consensus for this to include him. Otherwise, it's a BLP violation. I'll quote [[Fouad Ajami]] in his [http://www.nytimes.com/2009/08/02/books/review/Ajami-t.html?pagewanted=2 NYT review]: I"n his “Reflections on the Revolution in Europe,” Christopher Caldwell [...] gives this subject its most sustained and thoughtful treatment to date." "It is a tribute to Caldwell that he has not oversold this story, that he does not see the Muslim immigrants conquering the old continent and running away with it." The Financial Times article which is linked does not mention Eurabia at all. [[User:Iselilja|Iselilja]] ([[User talk:Iselilja|talk]]) 23:05, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
-: What do you mean by "[to] include Caldwell as a Eurabia author (conspiracy theory; islamophobia)"? [[User:Visite fortuitement prolongée|Visite fortuitement prolongée]] ([[User talk:Visite fortuitement prolongée|talk]]) 21:31, 24 March 2015 (UTC)
-::The way I understand this bibliography; it is made up of two kind of authors: Those who write within the Eurabia mindset; like Bat Ye'or and then scholars/authors on the Eurabia theory/literature (who don't themselves adhere to the theory). Caldwell - if included - would fall within the first category (people who spread the Eurabia theory), not a scholar on the theory/Eurabia literature itself. Including him is therefore a grave accusation since the theory is widely seen as a conspiracy theory; and the Islamophobia template is used in the article. Per prior debate; the inclusion criteria for the islamophobia template is very strict (only clear-cut cases), because it is a serious allegations; and the inclusion criteria for a list of literature that promotes the Eurabia theory should be equally strict. [[User:Iselilja|Iselilja]] ([[User talk:Iselilja|talk]]) 23:47, 24 March 2015 (UTC)
-::: Do the wikipedians at WP:BLP/N support this complex deduction, including your claim that this bibliography is actually a list of authors? And do you plan to delete the mentions of Vaïsse 2010 and Vaïsse 2010?

-== 2015-03 deletion of content ==
-The deletion of the mention of DOI:10.1177/0306396806066636 under the comment "remove offtopic entries (either focused on America or on criticism of Islam in general), not specifically on Eurabia" is a nice move.
