O webu WikiIslam: Difference between revisions

WikiIslam is a community edited website which focuses on the critique of Islam, whilst also allowing pro-Islamic responses in separate articles. It is run on the same software that Wikipedia and other similar sites use.

O projektu

Cílem encyklopedie WikiIslam je stát se nejpřesnějším a nejúplnějším zdrojem informací o islámu. Tyto zdroje se zakládají především na přímých zdrojích - Koránu, hadítech a islámských učencích. Wikiislam zastává racionální přístup a vyznačuje se kritickým prověřováním islámské propagandy a islámské pseudovědy.

WEb si klade za cíl zůstat neutrální vůči jiným náboženstvím, světovým názorům a záležitostem politické povahy, jako jsou: imigrace, multikulturalismus a izraelsko-palestinský konflikt, a stejně tak se distancovat od extremismu, snah o laciné senzace a emotivní hodnocení. Web dá faktům prostor, aby hovořily samy za sebe.

Navzdory kritice^[1] používá Wikiislam exhorts editors přednostně nezpochybňitelná a odborná fakta, a konfrontuje je, kdykoliv je to možné. Díky tomu vydatně používá zásadní primární i doplňující pro-islámské zdroje, jako jsou:Compendium of Muslim Texts, The History of al-Tabari afatwy ze současných mainstreamových islámských webů.

Wikiislam je mezinárodná web s editory a přispěvateli z celého světa, čemuž odpovídají směrnice týkající se obsahu. Například není upřednostňován žádný specifický region a stejně tak vývoji islámu v Asii nebo v Africe je věnována stejná pozornost jako vývoji islámu v Evropě, nebo v Americe.

Historie

Wikiislam byl vytvořen 27. října 2005 ve spolupráci s Ali Sinou a webem Faith Freedom International, který projektu poskytl prostor na serveru. Stránka byla v testovací fázi po dobu přibližně jednoho roku a 4.září 2006 byla zpřístupněna veřejnosti.

v září 2007, byl FFI (Faith Freedom International) server v důsledku útoku hackerů po dobu téměř jednoho měsíce mim provoz a v důsledku problémů se serverem byla editace webu téměř na jeden rok znemožněna.

v srpnu 2008 byla stránka vyčleněna z webu FFI a od té doby je provozována nezávisle, aniž by byla provozována nebo provázána s nějakou organizací.

Nemuslimové

presented a paper on WikiIslam at a conference in Sweden. At that point in time, the site was barely out of its infancy, only having been open to the public for three months, and Larsson was very critical. Today, with its new policies, new guidelines, thousands of more pages and the inclusion of pro-Islamic content aimed at presenting a positive image of Islam, WikiIslam remains the same only in name. But even back then in its primitive form, Larsson admitted that he could not label all the site "Islamophobic" in nature.^[2]

Contrary to what is sometimes claimed,^[1] WikiIslam has not received any attention from news agencies such as the Associated Press (AP), however, its non-partisan approach to criticism has led to the site being linked to or referenced by various notable sites such as RichardDawkins.net^[3] and GreenProphet.com.^[4] It has also been cited by Dr. Heather Deegan in her book, Africa Today: Culture, Economics, Religion, Security,^[5] Prof. Carlos Brebbia in his book, Disaster Management and Human Health Risk III: Reducing Risk, Improving Outcomes,^[6] and Dr. Stefan Kirchner in his paper published in the Baltic Journal of Law & Politics.^[7]

Due to the focus of the site, the most noticeable reactions from Muslims has been negative.^[1] Some have called for the site to be taken offline through illegal means such as hacking,^[8][9] and it had previously been banned in Saudi Arabia on the country's pornography blacklist, even though the site contains nothing of a pornographic nature.^[10]

Constant vandalism, death-threats, and non-compliance with guidelines by Muslim editors has lead to WikiIslam, like the German Wikipedia, implementing “pending-changes protection”, meaning that editing still remains open to all, including IP users, but changes have to be approved before becoming visible to readers.

However, due to WikiIslam's extensive use of authoritative primary and secondary pro-Islamic sources, the site has also received praise from Muslims, e.g. for its Sex Segregation in Islam^[11] and List of Killings Ordered or Supported by Muhammad^[12] articles, and pages such as List of Fabricated Hadith^[13][14] and Chronological Order of the Qur'an^[15] have been used by Muslims as a resource.

Návštěvnost

WikiIslam hosts 978 articles. On average, it currently receives over 250,000 visitors a month generating about 500,000 page views. As of October 2013, Alexa.com places it within the top 70,000 most visited websites.^[16]

Unlike many other sites critical of Islam, WikiIslam's audience is not "Eurocentric". The majority of its readers are from Eastern or Muslim-majority nations such as Pakistan, Bangladesh, India, Malaysia, Egypt, United Arab Emirates, and Singapore.^[17] Likewise, many of the site's administrators and editors are from a Muslim background or are skeptics from Muslim majority nations.

The site is currently looking for editors to translate some of their English articles into Indonesian, Urdu, Bengali and Arabic. There are translations from English already available at the site in several languages, including French and Turkish. A Russian sub-domain was started in early 2013 and they also host many press articles and fatwas from the Islamic world translated into English from the original Arabic.

Wikipedia

WikiIslam's primary focus is on the religion of Islam while Wikipedia is a compendium of general knowledge. These differing goals have led to different policies and guidelines.

Wikipedia discourages the use of primary and what they term as "non-notable/reliable" sources. WikiIslam, on the other hand, encourages the use of authentic primary religious text and the rulings of authoritative Muslim scholars who may not be notable to people outside of the Muslim world but who are giants from within.

Wikipedia focuses on "verifiability, not truth".^[18] In regards to Islam, it has meant they accept what "notable/reliable" Western commentators say about its religious text and Muslims over what the religious text and Muslims actually say themselves. Conversely, WikiIslam accepts what the religious text and Muslims say over the opinions and interpretations of third-party Western commentators.
