[edit] نوح

This page has been on WP:PNT since 1 September. Physchim62 10:27, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

Transfer from Wikipedia:Pages needing translation into English:

Arabic. No idea whether its anything useful or not. andy 07:38, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

I tried translating this online and got a very dodgy translation. From the results, I can guess that the article is religiously based - "Islam" and "God" appearing in the translation amongst other things. Image:Smily.jpg FireFox  ^{T C} 19:24, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

This article is about Noah, but I think it is in a Quran context, not in a bible one. CG 11:09, September 3, 2005 (UTC)

The article is almost entirely a synopsis of the story of Noah. The phrasing of the article has a religious tone, but it follows along with the Biblical / Qu'ranic tale itself. I translated the first bit about his lineage, I'll get to the rest of it if y'all want. Scotspride@aol.com

I would say Transwiki to Arabic Wikipedia. Any volunteers? Physchim62 11:46, 24 September 2005 (UTC)

That would have to be merge into ar:نوح. Physchim62 13:59, 25 September 2005 (UTC)

Delete assuming that both the English and Arabic wikipedias already have articles on Noah. PatGallacher 12:13, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

Comment:: Yes, Arabic wikipedia has an article on Noah, at ar:نوح. Physchim62 20:11, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

• Delete - if we don't have anyone who can translate it (and a month on PNT indicates that may be the case) then even the greatest article couldn't be useful to the en crowd. ESkog 18:09, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete - surely redundant with Noah and Nuh. ~~ N (t/c) 18:27, 2 October 2005 (UTC)
• The article is full of Koranic references to Noah. Also, there are some mentions to Hadiths about Noah/Nuh... There's no need to translate it as we have Noah#Islamic and Similarities between the Bible and the Qur'an#Noah/Nuh and the flood as well. Delete.

• Delete, its two weeks on WP:PNT are up. --Angr/_{tɔk tə mi} 05:06, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
• Delete material seems to exist elsewhere, and it's unlikely that someone would search for نوح on the english language edition. --Apyule 07:29, 3 October 2005 (UTC)
