== | ==High Priority Articles to Create and Flesh Out== | ||
Articles that need to be created are usefully divided by differing domains of knowledge and competence. Persons with a more generic, comparative background in religious studies or people with a general background in editing and writing will likely find the articles categorized under the "Generic" section to be ones they can most productively engage with. Persons with a background in traditional Islamic studies, whether from a taqlid- or ijtihad-oriented perspective, and with and an interest in Islamic scripture will likely prefer articles categorized as being "Of traditional interest". Lastly, persons studied in the historical-critical approaches to Islamic history, primarily expounded in Western scholarship, will likely prefer articles categorized as being "Of historical-critical interest". | |||
A number of the articles bellow may exist only in skeleton-format (that is, having been created and divided into sections while lacking in substantial content) and are a priority in terms of needing to be fully fleshed-out. | |||
