    [edit]

    Isn't "criticising" wrong spelling for "criticizing"? In the top 2nd paragraph? Also there's many more like that with an "s" instead of "z"? Why's that.. 209.212.196.5 (talk) 14:10, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    "Use British English" is specified in the article headers, so such spellings are used throughout. LizardJr8 (talk) 17:07, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    A user added the Better source needed template to the ending of the second paragraph of the Education section where it now says "He graduated from the Al-Azhar University in 1966.[11][better source needed]". On the template, the user set the reason as "minivan news is a single editor publication, not WP:RS" which is false and thus Minivan News should be able to meet WP:RS.
