User talk:Asmith

Thanks for making me an editor here Alan. Can I create articles here now?-Raman (talk) 17:49, 26 November 2020 (UTC)

No problem. Glad to have you on board. You can submit ideas for articles but we will need to see more contributions from you, and then we will grant you that privilege. --Asmith (talk) 22:08, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

Hey ASmith. We talked via email a week or two back.

I'm getting around WikiIslam, and I noticed that the novice users page creation permissions appear to be set up incorrectly.

Recall WikiIslam:Sandbox,

You can also create sandboxes under your username such as User:Your username/Sandbox 1 if you expect yourself to be the only editor of the page.

I go to User:Graves/Sandbox_1, which I cannot edit. If I go to https://wikiislam.net/wiki/User:Graves/Sandbox_1&action=edit , I get

You do not have permission to create this page, for the following reason: You do not have permission to create new pages.

The same applies for UNcreated (yet) Wiki sandbox pages such as WikiIslam:Sandbox/Hello

HOWEVER, this isn't the case for,

• User_talk:Graves/Sandbox_1 (user talk sandbox page - NOTICE, not the User:Graves/Sandbox_1 )
• User_talk:Asmith/Sandbox_1 (yours, not mine, user talk sandbox page)
• WikiIslam:Sandbox/Muslimské_statistiky (someone's written, already created, sandbox page)
• User:Asmith (yes, I can edit your user-page page)

I think this is a mis-confuration, so I let you know.

Thanks for bringing this up. It needs to be fixed and I updated the public sandbox for now to make it clear that new users should request these pages to be made for them for now (once made, new users can edit these without admin approval). I made three of them for you at your preferred url: https://wikiislam.net/wiki/User:Graves/Sandbox_1, https://wikiislam.net/wiki/User:Graves/Sandbox_2, https://wikiislam.net/wiki/User:Graves/Sandbox_3

Let me know if you need anything else. IbnPinker (talk) 18:59, 2 June 2021 (UTC)

I need to upload an image for an upcoming article. I cannot upload images directly to WikiIslam (no permissions), so I temporarily mirrored it here, https://ibb.co/KrPWJzm

Can one of the admins upload it to WikiIslam? Thanks Graves (talk) 09:40, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

Done. The file name is Al-Bari-page.png . Do you have a link to the Discord? The Discord would be the best way to discuss such things imo.--Asmith (talk) 17:04, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

Hi ASmith. I'd be interested in joining the Discord server, but I don't have a link. Can you send one to the email address I registered with (to keep it discreet)? Thanks.

And thanks for uploading the image. Graves (talk) 18:13, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

Hello. I would like to create an article on Spinning Wheel. Regarding the propaganda claim that Islamic science invented the spinning wheel. I have gathered many source that expose this claim. Can you start a blank article or a sandbox? I am also not able to make a sandbox. Guillotino (talk) 18:11, 4 August 2021 (UTC)

Hi Guillotino. Thank you for your idea, but after discussion with out team we came to the conclusion that this does not fit our scope. Please see our page WikiIslam:Scope and Article Relevance. This is a subject that would be better discussed on our Discord I think, do you have a link?--Asmith (talk) 06:44, 8 August 2021 (UTC)
