Spelling

Is the correct spelling of the first word of the title "Encyclopaedia", or should it be "Encyclopædia" with a ligature, as with Encyclopædia Britannica? Wmahan. 19:05, 5 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

It may have been used in EI1, but EI2 does not use the "ae" ligature. Masarra 23:41, 10 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

Expert on the topic

Criticism

edit

Some of the authors such as B Lewis, and Gibb... aren't they critics of Islam? What is the general concensus regarding the "Encyclopaedia of Islam" amongst muslims and scholars? Faro0485 (talk) 19:51, 11 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

First written encyclopedia

edit

I read somewhere in Jalal al Ahmad's book that this encyclopedia was the first written in the West. Is this true and if so please add the information to the page's content. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.58.95.81 (talk) 02:18, 28 October 2010 (UTC)Reply

Wikipedia-articles

edit

Is there no one who is interested in writing an article about the most important editors like Peri Bearman? --Dlugacz (talk) 08:52, 11 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

I've put up a page for Wolfhart Heinrichs. I'll see if I can find sources for Bearman. Dsp13 (talk) 20:28, 19 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
well, there's a stub at least for Peri Bearman now. Dsp13 (talk) 21:24, 19 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

I have just added archive links to 2 external links on Encyclopaedia of Islam. Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.
