:Just a quick update. I've added back the factually correct part of your edit, now including a quick list of the 6 countries. I've also found a proper reference (the PDF of the report rather than an interactive map). You can look at the formatting [http://wikiislam.net/w/index.php?title=List_of_Genuine_Islamic_Inventions_Innovations_Records_and_Firsts&curid=13896&diff=97840&oldid=97835#Terrorism here]. Note that I added the name of the report, publisher, date of publication and the exact page where the information is located. Now it is very easy for readers and editors to verify. As I noted earlier, your second statement was incorrect. If editors like me found it hard to verify everything then errors like that would continue to creep in and the standard and usefulness of this wiki would be lowered. Normally we also archive every reference, but WebCite is down at the moment. [[User:Sahabah|--Sahabah]] ([[User talk:Sahabah|talk]]) 17:37, 2 October 2013 (PDT) | :Just a quick update.

::Hi. I will say it a bit clearer; '''do not add statements 'supported' by references which make it hard for us to verify'''. I searched and found the [http://arabia2day.com/reports/sword-of-justice-beheadings-rise-in-saudi-arabia/ full article] you claim says beheading is only used in Islamic countries. It says no such thing. As far as I understand, they are specifically discussing ''only'' Muslim majority nations. And again, please use the "cite web" template from now on. Thank you.
