Talk:antiMuslimism
The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).
Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.
I don't think this spelling and capitalization is attested. We have anti-Muslimism, which seems okay. I am okay with speedy delete of this as obviously unattested. Attesting quotations can be placed at Citations:antiMuslimism either way. --Dan Polansky (talk) 21:31, 12 August 2014 (UTC)
- PaM added three citations to the entry, but one of them is a mention. — Ungoliant (falai) 16:56, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
- And all three actually use a hyphen: [1], [2], [3]. —Mr. Granger (talk • contribs) 17:03, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
- It looks like the hyphens in use there are a result of indentions and a combination of a page layout that leaves space for thin clumns and a relatively long word. In the instances cited, it looks more like a text editing feature which rejects left text alignment and instead goes for left-right text margin alignment resukting in forced hyphenation for sentence break purposes.

- The first source is not using the hyphen on a line break, and the article also uses the word "anti-Muslim" with a hyphenated spelling.
- The second source uses the word once at a line break, and then again, a few words later, not at a line break. They use the hyphen both times.
- The third source uses the spelling "anti-Muslimism" when the word does not occur at a line break.
- So it's clear to me that all three sources intended the spelling "anti-Muslimism". —Mr. Granger (talk • contribs) 14:15, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
- First of all i apologize for fucking up the citations, i wasn't really paying attention. Secondly, antiMuslimism has at least a few more attestations, although i'm reluctant to post them as a reference as i think its best for you to see them first hand. As far as i know the optical character recognition used on Google books does sometimes mistake punctuation marks on its current artificial software, nevertheless, the automatic identification and data capture is unlikely to have erreneously scanned the unicodes on these books on each occasion. Therefore, i would like to initiate a more even-handed approach to finding sources by collaborating with you or others. Pass a Method (talk) 15:57, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
- I looked through the first 20 results and they are all either scanos for the hyphenated version anti-Muslimism or (rarely) the lower-case version antimuslimism. --WikiTiki89 16:16, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
