:I just wanted to reassure you that we do not want to lose good arguments and information. I care a lot about this too, and so do ExMNA (we have had recent discussions about this). The new policy will be about re-phrasing good arguments that are supported by cited evidence into a more objective and concise style, adding balance where needed, and fixing biased personal judgements and assumptions. We will be removing conclusions and just presenting the observations and evidence so that readers see that the articles are more objective. Then they can come to their own conclusions about each topic. A lot of quotes will be moved to footnotes to make long articles more streamlined in order to better help readers who want an overview as well as those looking for detailed information on the arguments.

The experimental versions of the 4 articles (72 Virgins, Muhammad ibn Abdullah, Aisha's Age of Consumation and Embryology in the Quran) were actually written a few months ago and copy-pasted in yesterday. Mostly the changes worked well. Since then we have further refined the new policies. Later I will add back again some removed argument sections and evidence in Age of Aisha and Embryology, but in the new concise, objective style.
