According to an administrator on his talkpage, the site bans anything that violates Islamic law. I suspect the Acehnese Wikipedia isn't the only project with this rule. It would be difficult to obey it without violating NPOV at some point.

Simples, then. If a project refuses to enforce NPOV and "bans" itself, we
remove it.

Hoi,
The Acehnese Wikipedia is a young project. They are entitled to their mistakes. It is for this reason important that we first talk with them about what it is that they do. We should not start talking TO them about what they are to do. The current talking TO them is not polite and will not lead to positive results. It is similar as if I were to say to the English language community that they have to change their way because their community consensus is incompatible with WMF official board sanctioned policies.

I know that every project's allowed to create its own guidelines and
policies, but this seems to go against the freedom of information principle that Wikipedia stands for. I could accept this "No images" rule if it were present on a Wiki where the bulk of the editors are legally restricted from making such edits (Though it wouldn't be illegal per se, as the servers aren't located in the country in question), but i am a bit baffled that they feel the need to complain about the English Wiki, rather then worrying about their own Wiki instead. Equally i am non to fond of sysops who so blatantly advance their own point of view, as this signals that the sysop cannot handle conflicts in a neutral and impartial sense. I agree that a dialog needs to be started with this Wiki, in order to discuss this issue. It is probably best to do so quickly, before an ulama indeed decides to declare this a fatw -. In that case we would be discussing under a religious pretext, which is rarely the best way to fix issues such as these. ~Excirial On Fri, Jul 16, 2010 at 2:17 PM, Manuelt15 Wiki <[hidden email]>wrote: > Hi all, > > Only wanted to notify you that the Acehnese Wikipedia < > http://ace.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ôn_Keuë<http://ace.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%94n_Keu%C3%AB> > <http://ace.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%94n_Keu%C3%AB>> > have plans about boycotting Wikipedia, as they say in this statement < > http://ace.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pola:Lhi_gamba_peukabeh_Nabi_Muhammad_saw> > in > their Main page. > > --Manuelt15 > _______________________________________________ > foundation-l mailing list > [hidden email] > Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l > foundation-l mailing list [hidden email] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l |

Agreed. I don't particularly agree with Gerard's point that " It is similar
as if I were to say to the English language community that they have to change their way because their community consensus is incompatible with WMF official board sanctioned policies." - in that situation, yes, I'd expect en-wiki to change. If en-wiki was to leave its collective brain home one day and get rid of the BLP policy, would we shrug our shoulders and go "well, yes, it's a board-sanctioned policy, but they can make their own decisions"? NPOV isn't just a board-sanctioned policy - it's one of the fundamental principles and pillars the wiki is built on.

All of this is quite true. Discuss, don't tell. However: so far it hasn't even gotten to "talking to". It's just been noting that this is a blatant violation of NPOV and is highly problematic. And ultimately, NPOV is non-negotiable if the current contributors to ace:wp want it to stay a Wikimedia project. Do you have a problem with even noting this? Do you dispute this? - d. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [hidden email] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l |

Wouldn't it be better to explain to them that they are part of Wikipedia, so they cannot boycott Wikipedia without boycotting themselves? Although of course if they stick to their point, they have the right to fork. -- André Engels, [hidden email] _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [hidden email] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l |

Hoi,
First of all, the problem is with this template being on the main page. There is room for people to be of the opinion that insults to Muslims or Islam is not acceptable. I agree with them on this however I do not agree with them what they protest against. If they make their opinions known on their profile pages, I do not consider that there is a problem. It is also neither their call nor your call if the Acehenese Wikipedia is to be closed. When a majority of the ace community are of this opinion they have the options to leave, not to show pictures that depict Mohammed, fork the project and continue localise MediaWiki for the Acehnese language. They can not force a closure of the ace.wikipedia nor can they prevent people from editing it. As to querying my position with regards to the NPOV, that is first of all beside the point and secondly it can easily be considered a personal attack. I care about the values of our community and I care about this particular policy. Apparent violation of the NPOV is however no excuse for knee jerk reactions. It is no excuse for refusing to converse about such issues. Such a refusal is how you make enemies out of people who are the closest we have to friends in societies that are foreign to us.

No, you seem to be misunderstanding. Let me make a clear that me questioning
you on your beliefs and opinions in a respectful and neutral manner is not in any sense a personal attack. Also note that I specifically said I agree, we need to have conversations. I am not using any NPOV violations for "knee jerk reactions [and] refusing to converse about such issues". What I was pointing out is that to undermine the "action should be undertaken" argument, you used the example of en-wiki violating board-set policies, implying that en-wiki would somehow be exempt from any attempt to force it on the issue. That is categorically and obviously wrong.

Hoi,
I reacted in my previous mail to David Gerard. To me it is not obvious nor categorical that board-set policies will necessarily be welcomed or accepted. I assume that new policies will be formulated that will not have the power of tradition behind them. Given that our community is rather traditionalist nowadays I expect an outcry whatever such a policy consists off.

I agree completely with Gerard, and also want to ask that we extend the same standard to this discussion on the mailing list. We can look at this issue and say "stupid fundamentalists," but that's hardly productive, and very quickly devolves into a thread with posts that are, at best, pretty darn rude. I really don't want to have to moderate five people this weekend when it finally gets to the point of outright Muslim-bashing.

I don't think anything like outright Muslim-bashing has ever happened on this list by regular participants. Suggestions of closing the Aceh Wikipedia are obviously premature and not helpful; discussing whether the rule violates NPOV, and alerting others to facts about the situation, seems fine. It looks like the administrators involved on ace.wp speak English and other languages, anyone inclined to do so should feel welcome to approach them. It's worth noting the template does not currently appear on the Main Page, and there is something of a discussion about it here: http://ace.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marit_Ureu%C3%ABng_Nguy:Hercule#Wikipedia_and_Islam Nathan _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list [hidden email] Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l |
