Talk:Louis Farrakhan

Controversy

I have tagged some of the controversy sections as irrelevant on the basis that "controversy" doesn't simply mean something that an editor finds disagreeable. There should be reliable sources about people taking issue with what Farrakhan said or did. WillOakland (talk) 08:56, 19 September 2009 (UTC)

Anti-Semite? I think not.

Muslims in the NOI believe that Fard Muhammad, who they believe is Allah, had a white mother. So if their god is a semite, how can they be anti-semites?-AwesomePeopleMakeClay (talk) 16:10, 22 December 2009 (UTC)

"Black Hitler"

The first paragraph is misleading, or at least not properly cited. citation # 40 refers to death threats against Jackson, but in relation to his 1984 presidential campaign, not his pejorative comments. I recommend a better citation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.178.21.189 (talk) 23:18, 14 January 2010 (UTC)

"White God"?

Hi - I've never done any editing on Wikipedia and don't know how, but obviously the section "White God" has to be some kind of vandalism. 170.20.11.116 (talk) 13:09, 21 June 2010 (UTC) amy

Done and thanks for pointing it out :¬)

Any time! Your prompt and courteous response has encouraged me to report anything else untoward I might find.  :) 170.20.11.116 (talk) 14:45, 21 June 2010 (UTC)amy

Presidential election 2008

Why isn't the fact that he donated money to Barack Obama during his election in here? —Preceding unsigned comment added by NathanForrest101 (talk • contribs) 18:59, 15 July 2010 (UTC)

Because you haven't added it yet with a ref ? :¬)

Ah - I see the editor has been blocked - anyone else have the necessary info to add it? Chaosdruid (talk) 11:29, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

Nation of Islam != Muslim

From everything I've been able to find, and trying my best not to leave huge boot prints on WP:OR, I have to contend that the Nation of Islam is a Muslim sect in name only, in that it applies the name Allah to the concept of a Supreme Deity. Considering that the Nation of Islam considers Allah to be manifest in the person of its founder, Wallace D. Fard Muhammad, most adherents of the Muslim religion would consider Nation of Islam to be blasphemous at best.

Wikipedia software

My edits are not BLP and not vandalism. I linked my edits with reference. --93.82.8.124 (talk) 14:55, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

One very poor reference replaced detailed cited text, which was deleted for no discernable reason. Your own addition was barely intelligible. You also gave no edit summary. Paul B (talk) 15:52, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

Poor reference? That´s laughable. There is a video with Farrakhan himself speaking. I´m going to revert once more, because Wikipedia is out of order, with the mob ruling over it. --93.82.8.124 (talk) 15:59, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

You are making no sense. You removed detailed cited content and replaced it with an almost meaningless quotation which was summarised is a barely literate precis. Paul B (talk) 17:07, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

You are making no sense. Because that´s what you writing is no argument for WP:Edits. --93.82.8.124 (talk) 17:34, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
