::::::::::: I just scrolled through both of them and they look great. It isn't really an issue atm if these two pages seems somewhat similar - the point of the QHS page is to give a place to dump references, so if in the future anyone just wants to add another primary reference they can drop it off there without having to worry about integrating it into a regular article. This being the case, the two articles should evolve independently into more distinct entities in time. You can go ahead and post both articles into their actual pages at this point if you feel they are ready and can work from there. You should have auto-confirmed editing access at this point.

:::::::::::: I've really pared back the QHS: FGM page and published the two pages. I'm going to start working on the 'FGM in Islam' page'. However, I think that the title 'FGM in Islam' is not quite right - I'm wondering whether some other title like 'FGM: its Origins, History and Sociology' might better represent its contents and tempt more readers?
:::::::::::: I've been looking at the QHS:FGM page and it occurs to me that there's something that needs improvement. If you go to the Hadith section (https://wikiislam.net/wiki/Qur%27an,_Hadith_and_Scholars:Female_Genital_Mutilation#Hadith) to where it says "To 'sit amidst four parts' of a woman is a euphemism for sexual intercourse" - it's not clear if the note applies to the previous quote or the subsequent one. Could the 'quote' template be adapted to include a 'notes' field, so it's clear to which quote a note applies? I appreciate that it's just a detail, and that any half-attentive reader will realise which quote the note applies to, but think it's a much about getting the feel and look of the content right - making the page more 'comfortable'. I'm guessing that adding a field after the 'source' field would do the job, but it's not apparent how this might be done.
