I fully don't understand why you are removing a verifiable source that accurately describes the precise document in question. What's wrong with the description? Does the page get any worse with the description on the page. Regards, -- Jeff3000 21:23, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The only source can use on Commons is the image's source, not else. and here is not Wikipedia. see Administrators' noticeboard. • Rohan T 21:28, 10 May 2008
Where does it state that? Find me a policy that states that. And this is a description, not the source. Regards, -- Jeff3000 21:30, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, Yeh! and reverting may be continues • Rohan T 21:36, 10 May 2008
You still haven't given me a reason why the description of the document from a scholarly source is being removed. It is the most accurate description that we have. There are no Commons policies, that state that descriptions cannot be there, and you're editing is just removing facts that you don't like. Regards, -- Jeff3000 21:38, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You're right, this is not Wikipedia, but I'm not bringing Wikipedia into this. I have a scholarly description of the image, and you're removing it. Why? Which Commons policy states that you can't have that? Regards, -- Jeff3000 21:43, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Jeff is right. It is absolutely appropriate, and certainly not disallowed (as was claimed earlier) to add annotations from scholarly sources if an editor thinks it is appropriate. If there's going to be a discussion about this, make it about the reliability of the source, not whether such annotations should be added. Lewis Collard!

Like a Wikipedia article? If this is your idea no problem, I can add more information (include cite books, footnotes,...) and make here like an article • Rohan T 5:57, 11 May 2008
Well, not to the extent of a Wikipedia article. A brief summary of the scholarly literature for a document of disputed authenticity seems entirely appropriate, though. References are more than welcome. Lewis Collard! (hai thar, wut u doin) 17:25, 11 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Mírzá Abu'l-Faḍl-i-Gulpáygání (famous Bahai missionary) on his book Kashfu'l-Ghita (The Uncovering of Error) emphasis this repentance and augmet full context of Báb's repentance in his book • Rohan T 6:06, 11 May 2008
Because of importance of this document, I uploaded these page form that book:
