Talk:Amir Khusrow
Biased selection of quotes?[edit]
Hi, I thought Amir Khusrow wrote a lot about various subjects; then why are all of his quotes extracted from his historical works, in which he is extremely intolerant towards Hinduism? I wonder if this selection does not reduce this author to his bigotry. Would we act the same for an influential Western writer? (for example the French writer Louis-Ferdinand Céline: he was a terrible person, but his Wikiquote page is not ALL about his antisemitic rants - see https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Louis-Ferdinand_C%C3%A9line )
I wonder how much this selection of quotes has been influenced by a political stance about the place of Islam in India nowadays. Is it acceptable according to Wikimedia's policy about neutrality?
Not being from India, I do not want to take part in a debate in which I cannot have any informed opinion. I just want to know more about a particular author, even if he was a terrible human being.
Obviously, none of the quotes selected in this article should be deleted. They are correct, important, and necessary. But I think this selection should be completed by other quotes on various subjects, ideally coming from primary sources.
Thank you for reading my post.
