Quran Wiki:About

Welcome to  The wiki about the Qur'an that anyone can edit

articles since November 17, 2008.

When editing this page, please note a few things:


 * The inexperienced may want to check out the "How to help" section on the "community portal" article linked on the sidebar.
 * Remember this page is the most public face of the wiki - test edits are best done on a separate page.
 * Sections within "<! --" and "-- >" markers (without the spaces) - like this entire section - are hidden comments, and can be separated by several lines. Be sure not to break them.
 * We strongly recommend you do not change the  style tags - these keep your page format safe from unexpected breaks - the left column is first, followed by the right column. See http://help.wikia.com/wiki/Help:Main_page_column_tags for more info.

Please note that Wikia protection policy advises against the protection of this page unless it is the active target of vandalism.


 * Protecting the main page can do more harm than good, for example by preventing links being added and convincing potential contributors the wiki might not be editable.
 * See http://www.wikia.com/wiki/Protection for more info.

Please include a Surah category for each page so that there will be a page for each Surah which links back to the pages containing references to quotations within that Surah.

Although there is no limit to the possibilities for categorization, I think we should try to categorize each verse in at least one place, and often more than one.

My feeling is that we should stick to the Qu'ran rather than traditions (i.e., stick to the name of this wiki) and, while offering quick synopses for convenience, avoid interpretations, letting people see the verses for themselves.

So far, verses have been categorized in at least way up through Surah 2:22.
