Excess detail?

Shia–Sunni relationsSunni–Shia divide – Common name and description, attributed to multiple sources.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18] I will highlight that it is not a mere debate, but a disagreement that has come with conflict and violence. We should align its naming on Wikipedia with how it is described.

  • Oppose. Most of the sources cited have been news-type sources, not scholarly ones. Secondly, the sources are referring mainly to the conflict. So I agree that an article that was solely on the Shia-Sunni conflict should indeed be called Shia-Sunni divide, but the scope of this article is broader than that.VR (Please ping on reply) 21:09, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
