[edit] Misuse of "omnipotent"

"omnipotent" means "all powerful" as its link says and its casual use in "an Islam-related" article cannot be allowed. The latest edit says Falak is something in Arabian religions. What are those? The link for "Arabian religions" leads nowhere so the explanatory essence of the encyclopedia is nullified.

[edit] Naming children

1) This seems irrelevant. Wikipedia articles should be explanatory works, not shop windows or ragbags of remotely connected jottings.

2) It most confusing. Falak is a mythical serpent living under the "Realm of Fire" (another empty link). Yet it is also the sky or/and the infinite power.

3) The ideas people in some unspecified traditions have about a person's name bringing "luck" seem off subject.--SilasW 16:21, 19 July 2007 (UTC)
