We are dealing with this in 3RR right now and you are tagging that the source does not support? "Al-Baghdadi has the megalomaniacal aim of restoring the long-expired caliphate, the original Muslim kingdom that existed under the successors of the Prophet Mohammed and at one point extended from modern-day Spain to Central Asia. "Caliph," or khalifa, means "successor" in Arabic, and by taking the title, al-Baghdadi has declared himself the ''chief imam'' and ''political'' and ''military leader'' of ''all Muslims''." http://theweek.com/article/index/267920/abu-bakr-al-baghdadi-the-man-who-would-be-caliph
== Swear words ==
You says that you made [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Technophant&diff=prev&oldid=634353153 this edit] (dated 18 November 2014) with an edit commentary "Unblock redux: rmv swear words" because "[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk%3APBS&diff=636585957&oldid=636359774 I removed the words on request.]" (dated 4 December 2014).
As I was assuming good faith, and as would any other editor. your edit comment of "rmv swear words" looks like a mild refactoring per 'not in front of the servants or children'. If you were asked to do it, then you should have made that very clear in your edit history comment. That you did not do so shows a lack of judgement -- doubly so as the words that you changed was that of an editor formally requesting an unblock which had been turned down.
Who was it that made the request and how?
Your actions also beg the question: how many other edits have you made at the request of others through a mechanism not transparent to other Wikipeida editors where you have not declared the request in the edit history of a page? -- [[User:PBS|PBS]] ([[User talk:PBS|talk]]) 11:57, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
:[[User:PBS|PBS]]:-
*I have never made an edit at the request of any editor or admin before that time or since and regarded this as an exception.
*I was asked to remove those two words by Technophant, with whom I have been in email contact for a long time as is no secret.
*He has not asked me to refactor anything else.
*It happened shortly after he had been blocked.
*Confidentiality prevents me saying anything about his personal circumstances at the time of his block which led me to agree to this.
