Hi, just letting you know what's going on with the site at the moment and why your edits yesterday were reverted. ExMNA will likely get in touch with you at some point, but to summarise, they are undertaking a major project to revamp Wikiislam with a wide range of improvements. This will include a lot of new content and a more scholarly and objective approach in the existing articles. They are developing new guidelines for this purpose, and as a result some pages have been batch-deleted (including the Farside pages) which were not appropriate for the new approach.

AbdulHurayrah is heavily involved with this project, and the edits you saw were the removal of links on hub pages to articles that have already been removed. The 4 articles that had sudden major changes were their initial experiments to help formulate the new guidelines. Those articles will be further improved (I gave them feedback). I didn't undo your rollback of the embryology article because I know that ExMNA's changes to this one in particular had a lot of problems (I am very familiar with this article because I completely re-wrote it a couple of years ago). I won't put their changes back until I am ready to improve it and fix the problems.

I saw that you changed the wine article back to the old version that we had prior to my review and re-write. I did this re-write following feedback from Ex-Muslims and Muslims. There was agreement that the old article needed changing due to a host of problems, so I have reverted your changes to that. It's possible that this one will see further work during the revamp project. Thanks for your other work and patience while we commence the initial stages of the project.[[User:Lightyears|Lightyears]] ([[User talk:Lightyears|talk]]) 11:09, 29 December 2018 (UTC)
