Attn: Administrator of En-Wikipedia
I am anxiousely waiting for your response on above.

Attn: Administrator WIKIPEDIA
Dear Administrator,
I am surprised on such rude and biased behavior of English Wikipedia. Why such rude behavior with me? I uploaded an article on His Holiness Riaz Ahmed Gohar Shahi, a world renowned spiritual personality and I took the full responsibility of the contents in spite of that my article was deleted even I gave an explanation being a responsible person of representative of His Holiness Riaz Ahmed Gohar Shahi but no response at all!
What is this?
You claim to be world’s largest FREE ENCYCLOPEDIA THAT ANY ONE CAN EDIT but on contrary to this slogan, your policies are totally adverse to your slogan?
I am an authorized representative of His Holiness Riaz Ahmed Gohar Shahi and want to write an article, so that WIKIPEDIA should have at least a profile of world renowned spiritual personality who enlightened hundred thousands of Muslims and non-Muslims without any discrimination of cast, creed or sect.
I would highly appreciate, if you could kindly allow me to upload an article.
Look forward to an urgent response.
Regards,

Copyright
The last time this article was deleted (by someone else, I never deleted it) it was deleted as a copyright violation of http://www.geocities.com/divinelove4all/goharshahi2.html If you are the owner of that material, the easiest way to prove this is to put a notice on it saying you release it under the GFDL. The article still has problems though. The link you gave me can be used to write about court cases against him, but claims like "Members of all faiths and religions invited His Holiness for lectures" and "He enlightened the hearts of thousands of people with the invocation of God" need to be backed up by sources, preferably sources other than His Holiness himself to avoid

Be careful how you address people. I'm male but I've seen people from Asian countries post questions addressed "Dear Sir" a lot on the help desk too. Remember that there are plenty of women answering questions too. - Mgm|(talk) 12:47, 11 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The main problems with the articles you've created: they're very much not presented from a
Wikipedia is not an advertising service
for any religion.
The way I read the article, there is currently very little that can be salvaged as neutral enough for inclusion...and I haven't yet found any sources from which to build a neutral article. If you've any links to media coverage about Shahi, that might help.
Finally, it's also worth considering that even if a neutral, sourced article were written & kept here, you might not find that desirable: once written here, you no longer
own the content and anyone can modify the article. From what I have found, there's a no shortage of information about alleged misdeeds by Shahi and The Mehdi Foundation International. Wikipedia does not exist to correct misrepresentations by the media, but to report that which is already known and presented. That means that this article will be open to be edited by all the so-called enemies of Shahi & MFI with their alleged yellow journalism and negative propaganda usable to paint a picture you may not want... — Scientizzle 15:37, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply
