Talk:Muhammad cartoons controversy (view source)

Erm, is this the appropriate page to point out that Conservapedia has a picture of Muhammad on the page with the relevant article? Remember it's not just the fact that the Danish cartoons were cartoons that caused the uproar but that they depicted Muhammad at all. Depictions of the human figure are proscribed in Islam, and depictions of Muhammad doubly irreligious.[[User:Britinme|Britinme]] 20:55 8 April 2007 (EDT)

:I think it is a serious problem that we have one of the offensive cartoons on the page. We need to get the rest up too! If the muslims rioted in protest, this just makes me want to further publicise the images - we need to defend our free speech right, and that includes the right to be offensive towards Islam. We can't just let them trample over free speech with their threats of violence or legal action. [[User:NewCrusader|NewCrusader]] 20:38, 17 August 2008 (EDT)
Do we actually have a standardised spelling of Mohammed? There's at least three different ones on that page alone... On that note, I'm ''pretty'' sure that the image wasn't censored by Comedy Central and was merely made to appear as such by the creators of South Park.

:I've seen the episode - the notice in place of Mohammed explicitly said Comedy Central. And the spelling... no. There is no standardised spelling in the latin alphabet. It can't be written in that alphabet at all, only approximated. It's an arabic name. If we do settle on just one, I suggest asking the admins to run a global search-replace of the article database on a regular basis to ensure it's always used.
