Giving it some effort![edit]

Found that Zain Bhikha had only a stub. Someone left a lot of POV issues here, but I'm working on the wording, references and wikification. Please drop a line on my talk page if you wish to help! ;) --leahtwosaints (talk) 01:54, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Here I am, a year later, and someone added "Brother" before the name Zain Bhikha, which shows POV once again. Please, let this show that we can assimilate and contribute by Wikipedia's rules and still (for those of us who are) be Muslim.--Leahtwosaints (talk) 04:43, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Some Comments[edit]

First, the External Links area is not a Parking lot. Either add to the article with references, or if you don't know how, ask for HELP.
Second, this article was nearly word for word without credit to Zain Bhikha's only complete biography site. I'm trying to re-word and to find references, but as they say, It takes a Village, and trust me, I am not a Village. How about rolling up some sleeves and making this a decent article? --leahtwosaints (talk) 22:09, 14 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Discography[edit]

The discography on this article was done wrong. You may not just link album names to outside sources like that! To create a discography, one must begin, on a new page, an album page for every separate album. Then you may link them together, with references. As it is now, it's just linked to an outside commercial website (and commercial means POV, not a good thing here). The links to outside must be removed. You may ask someone at the record albums task group as to how to make a proper album page for each, and how to line up the discography. --Leahtwosaints (talk) 03:17, 17 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Urdu and Hindi spellings of name[edit]

Is there any particular reason for spelling his name in Urdu and Hindi in the intro? Park3r (talk) 15:01, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
