:What about [[Anwar Wagdi]], [[Tamer Hosny]], and [[Soad Hosny]], do you find it appropriate that they be labelled of Syrian descent just because they might have had one (of four) Syrian grandfathers? What if SD sneaks his Syrian agenda back as a label for Asmahan and Farid after it has been removed by a mediator? Who is keeping watch? --[[User:Arab Cowboy|Arab Cowboy]] ([[User talk:Arab Cowboy|talk]]) 09:41, 2 September 2009 (UTC) |

'''Note:''' The "labeling" AC is referring to is adding of the category Egyptians of Syrian descent. Tamers mother is Syrian, not one of his grandparents, and in the case of Anwar, the only sources we have say he is of Syrian origin, it might be 100%, 50% or 25%.--[[User:Supreme Deliciousness|Supreme Deliciousness]] ([[User talk:Supreme Deliciousness|talk]]) 12:10, 2 September 2009 (UTC) |

: yes Arab Cowboy, it is indeed my opinion, and i think to resolve that problem, we should simply call them as Egyptian Arab musicians, with Syrian Descendants... |
|||
i dunno... what do you think they hsould be called, since its is incorrect to siply describe them as Egyptians... |

Template:Outline of knowledge coverage WPT Proposal for a 200-WikiProject contestA proposal has been posted for a contest between all 200 country WikiProjects. We're looking for judges, coordinators, ideas, and feedback. The Transhumanist 00:39, 19 May 2009 (UTC) Did queen Farida play any official role in society as queen? Did she show herself in public? It seems (from her article) that her predecessor did not. --Aciram (talk) 17:18, 4 June 2009 (UTC)
Request for commentAn RFC is open at this article which is marked as within the scope of this Wikiproject but the RFC has so far seem very few responses. It would be very helpful to resolving the matter if any interested editors could stop by and offer any thoughts. CIreland (talk) 01:59, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
New articles listWouldn't it be good if this project added a subpage for new articles where members could list articles they recently created. That way other members could be aware and help out or collaborate to better the article. --Al Ameer son (talk) 00:57, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
Atrash clan articlehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrash User Arab Cowboy has recently joined WP Egypt and added the Egypt stub, Category:Egyptians of Syrian descent and Category:Druze people of Egyptian nationality to the article, and also WikiProject Egypt to the talkpage. This is a Syrian clan and I do not believe it is in any way of any interest or has any connection to WP Egypt and I do not believe these two categories should be in the article or the Egypt stub. The Asmahan and Farid al Atrash articles already have these categories, and thats where they belong. The al Atrash clan are not Druze people of Egyptian nationality or Egyptians of Syrian descent. The Al Atrash clan has no connection to Egypt, only Asmahan and Farid. I would like to remove these things from the article and I would like to hear what other WP Egypt members feel about this.--Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 12:01, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
Asmahan and Farid al-Atrash were Egyptian citizens belonging to al-Atrash family. They lived all their lives in Egypt, along with their brother Fuad. Fuad's descendents continue to live in Egypt. As long as users like Supreme Deliciousness keeps inserting "Syrian" in front of those names, WP:Egypt will keep a watchful eye on it. --Arab Cowboy (talk) 13:35, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

Arab League User (talk) 22:21, 7 September 2009 (UTC)-- Do You Agree That These People Were of Syrian Descent?Do you agree that Anwar Wagdi, Tamer Hosny, Soad Hosny were of Syrian descent? Admin Sancho had stated on Omar Sharif's Talk page that going from both his parents were Syrian or Lebanese to "he was of Syrian descent" would be an unacceptable leap in WP. Please make your opinion known if this category "Category:Egyptians of Syrian descent" should be in their articles. --Arab Cowboy (talk) 09:49, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
[User:Sanchom Admin Sancho] has laid The Wikipedia rule on this matter. On Omar Sharif's Talk page, Sancho He has stated: "* SD, avoid original research. Even the leap from "Sharif's parents were Lebanese", to "Sharif is of Lebanese descent" is going too far in an article about a living person." --Arab Cowboy (talk) 11:24, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
