This page lists tasks that need to be done. If you have any questions about a certain task, please ask the relevant talk page. If you fail to receive a helpful response, comment on an editors talk page directly or, if necessary, contact us.
Inclusion of an article, project or concept on this page does not necessarily mean that it is acceptable for the site. Content still has to be evaluated for suitability on the site. During evaluation content may be partially or wholly edited or removed.
Organization
Tasks are broken down into five categories: articles in need of creation, articles in need of total rewrite, articles in need of fleshing out, articles in need of smaller revisions or additions, and wiki house-keeping and quality of life tasks. The criteria for inclusion in these categories is as follows:
- Creation--these are articles which do not exist in any form on the wiki
- Total Rewrite--These articles exist but are either not in encyclopedic form or do not meet the standards of the wiki on content and POV; after the wiki is fully renovated, this category should cease to be necessary
- Fleshing out-- These are articles which are either stubs or skeletons, and need more content to be added
- Smaller Revisions-- Articles which need portions moved, added, chamged, or deleted
- Wiki House-Keeping--These are issues related to the structure and usability of the wiki, such as hub pages and templates

- Aisha and Puberty - Add some of the info from here
- Muhammad's Companions and Child Marriage - add section about Fatima's marriage to Ali, aged 9-11
- Merge content from Refutation of Modern Apologetics Against Aisha's Age into Responses to Apologetics: Muhammad and Aisha, and delete/redirect the first article so we have one article on the topic. Transform from article on apologetics/polemics into a purely informative/encyclopedic article.
- List of Muhammad's Wives and Concubines - source the statements individually so they are easy to cross-check. If possible, find multiple sources for key statements.
- Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Women - A number of the quotes here are obscure. This is not necessary since there are much more authoritative texts available (Qur'an, sahih hadith, etc.,) that make the exact same points. Find these and replace quotes.
Qur'an, Hadith, and Scholars
- Talk:Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars - Add quotes to relevant pages and/or create new QHS pages

- Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Wives and Concubines of Muhammad - Add all the tabari quotes
- Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Muhammad and Warmongering has more sources concerning the Banu Qurayza than the Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Banu Qurayza page. The QHS page for Banu Qurayza should be the page that contains all available sources concerning them, while the sub-section in "Muhammad the Warmonger" should only be a summary of sources with the "main article" template added.
- Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars:Sexuality - Add more hadiths relating to sex or sexual issues in this life and afterlife (virgins, sexual power of men in heaven etc).
- Qur'an,_Hadith_and_Scholars:Aisha#Fatwas - Add additional hadiths linked in Fatwa box [3]. So "See 12, 13, 14" on page ... should all be added on the page. Also add additional thighing evidence from [4] - fatwa 41409
- Attitudes of the Imams and leaders - big collection of quotes. Find sources then add the suitable quotes to QHS. Avoid unimportant leaders of small (usually Western) mosques and obscure 'extremists' such as Anjem Choudary, Abu Hamza or Omar Bakri.
- WikiIslam:Sandbox/Temporary Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars page has many interesting links to Arabic quotes by scholars. Theses need to be translated and inserted in the Qur'an, Hadith and Scholars pages.
