New edits

Collected the bibliography at the end of the article, added perhaps a dozen new reliable sources, copy-edited the article to improve neutrality and clarity. These edits are too many to summarize here but, I think, it's very clear that the revised article is better-sourced and less biased. I don't think any of the edits are controversial but, if there are any concerns, please discuss them here first. Albertatiran (talk) 19:51, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Merge proposal

I propose merging Islamic leadership into Succession to Muhammad. I think the first article entirely duplicates the intentions of this one—sans references—and the links to it would appropriately arrive here, none of them seem to be about leadership generally. What do others think? — penultimate_supper 🚀 talk 11:43, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: There is nothing to merge. The other article has no sources and should be deleted instead. StephenMacky1 (talk) 11:55, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I mean, that’s basically what I think, but since both have coexisted for so long I didn’t want to act without consultation penultimate_supper 🚀 talk 12:05, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, so we're all in agreeance that Islamic Leadership should just be deleted? Is there any one else to ask or are we just good to go ahead? Halima Buhari (talk) 09:34, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Since it seemed there was consensus, I carried out the redirect. Probably didn't need to ask in the first place, but boldness has never been one of my primary strengths. —penultimate_supper 🚀 (talk • contribs) 12:47, 26 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
