Articles are not judged on their shock value or humor, so images within written articles should be tasteful. For example, in an article about [[stoning]], the least graphic image should be chosen. Or in an article about [[Diseases and Cures in the Wings of Houseflies|houseflies and bacteriophages]], an electron micrograph of bacteriophages should be chosen over the closeup image of a fly (which some people may find sickening). | Articles are not judged on their shock value or humor, so images within written articles should be tasteful.

===Translations=== | |||
{{Main|WikiIslam:Translations}} | |||
Translations should always remain faithful to the original English work, retaining their scholarly tone and information. If for localization purposes an editor thinks their should be some slight alterations made, they must first be discussed with others on the talk page. | |||
Only when there are a front page's worth of translations (about 25-35 articles) and at least one regular and reliable editor for a language can creating a dedicated sub-domain be considered. Once launched, they are free to evolve separately to the English site in style and content as long as the core guidelines are followed i.e. no politics, no promotion or criticism of other religions/worldviews and no opinions, only referenced facts concerning Islam. | |||
