Agreed!

I have started writing a blog a few days ago because the wikiIslam reponse link doesn't allow me to change it.

Look at how I started it, if anyone wants to pitch in let me know. It won't be a wiki unfortunately. but it could be converted into one once we can make a wiki. Unfortunately, I don't have the technical skills.

Mash'Allah bro mclinkin that was a good read. I'll be happy to help out on this new website you guys are making insh'Allah. I think it would be good to make a wiki page because this site has a lot of good information it's just hard to find what you are looking for. This will be very good for the ummah

You have done an AMAZING job at these! May Allah bless you for your efforts.

Its time to find a way to create a wiki. I'm trying to figure it out and I will get back at you when one is created.

There is one right here: http://wikiislam.net/wiki/Scientific_errors_in_the_Quran_(response) (http://wikiislam.net/wiki/Scientific_errors_in_the_Quran_(response)) currently, but it doesn't let us accept the edits. So we have to make one of our own.

Jazak Allah Khairan.

I realised that there were decent enough rebuttals found online but nothing that incorporated everything. So i went through every website and collected all the information. Then added Linguistic analysis' from dictionaries.

Ive still got a lot to add on each article though. Insha'Allah it will go well.

Yeah. Well i know Brother Osama has bought Wiki-Islam sites i think. We just need to programmers...

Assalamu Alaikum everyone,

I have already posted the estimates and the ideal team structure for the wiki project here - www.answering-christianity.com/blog/index.php?topic=1024.0

There are many ways to create a wiki and most of them require the creator to know Python language (although a few also work on java, c#, c++ and other languages). If we embark on this project, everyone involved should be prepared to dedicate a lot of their time for about 6 months (according to my estimates).

Meanwhile, I really appreciate the work started here in the form of articles rebutting many myths about Islam (I would like to take this opportunity to commend ThatMuslimGuy and mclinkin94 for the wonderful articles they have written and the effort they have taken in their research). This is important, but I re-iterate my point that we shouldn't restrict ourselves to just debunking islamophobic websites (wikiislam is just one among a zillion islamophobic sites). If we devote all our time to just telling people what Islam does not teach, when will we tell them what Islam actually teaches? We must make this wiki as a vanguard to people who want to know about Islam as a religion, not an islamophilic reaction to an islamophobic website.

WalaikumAsalam,

Great plans!

Im sadly busy at uni so will only be able to provide content for the site not actually building. I agree more general answers about Islam will be needed. However many of Answering Christianity and other sites are full of it.

I wish to help out anyway I can.
