This guideline is a part of the English Wikipedia's Manual of Style. It is a generally accepted standard that editors should attempt to follow, though occasional exceptions may apply. Any substantive edit to this page should reflect consensus. When in doubt, discuss first on the talk page. |
The purpose of this supplementary manual is to create guidelines for editing Islam-related articles to conform to a neutral encyclopedic style, as well as to make articles easy to read by following a consistent format. The following rules do not claim to be the last word. One way is often as good as another, but if everyone does it the same way, Wikipedia will be easier to read and use, not to mention easier to write and edit; it will also minimize unnecessary disputes and disagreements. This manual is open to all proposals, discussion, and editing.
There is considerable disagreement among the editors of Islam-related articles about which sources are reliable. The most important thing to remember is that all sources and articles must conform to Wikipedia policies such as WP:NOR, WP:V. and WP:NPOV.
