List of Muslim reports[edit]

Mostly because the choice of subsections and authenticity evaluation constitutes original research. I also find the authenticity statements to be less accurate when a hadith article refers to multiple narrations, with each narration most likely having its own evaluation (e.g., Hadith of the two weighty things mentions no less than 10 narrations).

There is also some needless repetition, which is a good indicator that a list format may not be suitable. As an alternative to this article, I think we should have a category for the "Hadith of" articles. This should help with the navigation. Another option is to reduce this article to a list of links and delete any hadith article that fails notability. Wiqi⁽⁵⁵⁾ 09:13, 22 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. For me, the only reason to keep navigational lists over categories is that list entries can be sorted and annotated according to specific needs. Considering the sheer amount of alternative views on each report, such sorting/annotating would become unmanagable and is likely going to include a lot of WP:OR/WP:SYNTH. A simple category already exists at Category:Hadith. --HyperGaruda (talk) 20:35, 22 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Rename This looks fine to me, but shouldn't it be called "List of Muslim Hadiths"? None of the individual articles are called 'Reports.'

Delete since the category is not substantially different from this list. I agree that there is a large amount of WP:OR here. Laurdecl ^talk 04:44, 26 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete - I think List of hadith authors and commentators and Template:Islamic texts category tree are more useful ways to organize articles about hadith and the choices made in this article seem too OR. I imagine that a list like this could exist if better sourced as a list to avoid OR, and the OR issue is my main reason to !vote delete. Smmurphy^(Talk) 17:25, 26 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
