really trying to avoid an edit war. So please, let us discuss this nonsense before I put the article up for deletion once again, and this time a majority comes in to vote in favor of it. If anyone is going to provide a source, please let it be something definitive. Something which is very well established. Although Knowledge (XXG) forbids quoting of other encyclopedias, or encyclopedic content, such as the Encyclopedia Britannica, please do not hesitate in using such sources to establish facts, as the Encyclopedia Britannica is probably the most reliable online resource for establishing true facts. And Knowledge (XXG) also states to only use official rules as a guideline, rather than absolute law, and that logic and common sense trump most rules. Thanks.

of philosophical interest---it seems analogous to talking about contributions to logic made by people whose name begins with 'Z'. On the other hand, if what is intended by 'Islamic' is some natural class of ideas associated with a philosophical tradition connected to reasoning about Islamic texts, as the earlier section of the article seems to suggest, perhaps it would help to make clearer how Islam colored the development of these ideas. Maybe specific brief examples of particular arguments (or sketches thereof) would be useful? (None of this is intended to suggest that this article isn't really interesting, though... I found it very informative.)

no record of dispute or discussion concerning the present page. Since editors have taken responsibility for helping bring these pages up to standard, it is incumbent upon the deleting editor to check citations and show point-for-point on this page why each cited statement has been removed, preserving material that is adjudged reliable and valuable. I do not discount the possibility of merging reliable text into another article.

standard and there are people in the process of expanding the stubs again. Other concentrate on removing contentious material — I am sure that you agree no information is always better than tons of misinformation. You are absolutely welcome to restore material which you consider reliable on a point-by -point basis to the article. It is then considered 'your' material and we would turn to you for requests of verification.

These other main articles on logic only take into account European and Greek history.

The editor in question has contributed several "good articles" and I have informally verified certain material in these pages including significant material unavailable elsewhere in wikipedia.

I'm a little confused by this article, in that it never quite makes clear in what sense any of this 'Islamic'. The portion about fuzzy logic seems to suggest that what is intended is only contributions to logic that come from 'the Islamic world'. I'm not clear on why such geographical facts should be

Anyone who alleges issue with the development of modal logic in Islamic civilization is out of their mind. Look up the cosmological argument, read the contributions of Avicenna and Al-Ghazali. There's your proof, without a doubt, of the widespread use of modal logic in 10th-11th century Islamic

Modal logic is a type of formal logic that extends the standards of formal logic to include the elements of modality (for example, possibility and necessity). Modals qualify the truth of a judgment.
