The concept of a "Druze ethnicity" was created solely in Israel, and it does not exist in Syria, Lebanon, the Golan Heights, Jordan, or among the Druze diaspora. Curiously, only in Israel did the government conclude that Druze are not Arabs, and they continue to promote this idea. Unfortunately, this misleading narrative has gained traction here as well, despite clear evidence from reliable sources that the Druze are, in fact, Arabs. <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/2.55.182.110" title="Special:Contributions/2.55.182.110">2.55.182.110</a> (<a href="/w/index.php?title=User_talk:2.55.182.110&amp;action=edit&amp;redlink=1" class="new" title="User talk:2.55.182.110 (page does not exist)">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Druze#c-2.55.182.110-20240728222800-Ogress-20240728221300" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">22:28, 28 July 2024 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-2.55.182.110-20240728222800-Ogress-20240728221300"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240728222800","author":"2.55.182.110","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-2.55.182.110-20240728222800-Ogress-20240728221300","replies":["c-2.54.182.81-20240728230400-2.55.182.110-20240728222800"]}}--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-2.55.182.110-20240728222800-Ogress-20240728221300"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-2.54.182.81-20240728230400-2.55.182.110-20240728222800"></span>The article lacks sources to support the claim that the Druze faith is an "ethnic religion" or that Druzes are an "ethnic religious group". Unlike Jews, Copts, or Yazidis, who view their religions through an ethnic lens, the Druze see their religion purely as a faith. Druze Sheiks do not treat their religion as an ethnicity, unlike Jewish rabbis, for example. The Druze are simply Arabs who practice their religion, much like Arab Muslims, Arab Christians, or Arab Baha'is. It is surprising that this description has persisted for years without editorial correction, despite the absence of evidence supporting the terms "ethnic religion" or "ethnic religious group". This misinformation has even been replicated in other Wikipedia versions and numerous other sites, further spreading the inaccuracy. <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/2.54.182.81" title="Special:Contributions/2.54.182.81">2.54.182.81</a> (<a href="/w/index.php?title=User_talk:2.54.182.81&amp;action=edit&amp;redlink=1" class="new" title="User talk:2.54.182.81 (page does not exist)">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Druze#c-2.54.182.81-20240728230400-2.55.182.110-20240728222800" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">23:04, 28 July 2024 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-2.54.182.81-20240728230400-2.55.182.110-20240728222800"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240728230400","author":"2.54.182.81","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-2.54.182.81-20240728230400-2.55.182.110-20240728222800","replies":[]}}--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-2.54.182.81-20240728230400-2.55.182.110-20240728222800"></span></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Maddy_from_Celeste-20241014152400-Extended-confirmed-protected_edit_request_on_28_July_2024"></span><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1232521257"><div class="reflist-talk"> <p class="reflist-talk-title">References</p> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1239543626"><div class="reflist"> <div class="mw-references-wrap mw-references-columns"><ol class="references"> <li id="cite_note-11"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-11">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite class="citation web cs1"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/druze">"Definition of druze"</a>. <i>Dictionary.com</i>. 2013-07-18<span class="reference-accessdate">.

I didn't check the other citation but if it's also true the whole sentence should be removed. Describing him as proto-salafi is also quite ideological, albeit accepted in the western discourse surrounding Islam, but that's less important. <a href="/w/index.php?title=User:Mohammed_Al-Keesh&amp;action=edit&amp;redlink=1" class="new" title="User:Mohammed Al-Keesh (page does not exist)">Mohammed Al-Keesh</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Mohammed_Al-Keesh" title="User talk:Mohammed Al-Keesh">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Druze#c-Mohammed_Al-Keesh-20241020041300-Extended-confirmed-protected_edit_request_on_20_October_2024" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">04:13, 20 October 2024 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Mohammed_Al-Keesh-20241020041300-Extended-confirmed-protected_edit_request_on_20_October_2024"><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">[</span><a class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-reply" role="button" tabindex="0" href="">reply</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-bracket">]</span><!--__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241020041300","author":"Mohammed Al-Keesh","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Mohammed_Al-Keesh-20241020041300-Extended-confirmed-protected_edit_request_on_20_October_2024","replies":["c-Yovt-20241022162800-Mohammed_Al-Keesh-20241020041300"]}}--></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Mohammed_Al-Keesh-20241020041300-Extended-confirmed-protected_edit_request_on_20_October_2024"></span> </p> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Yovt-20241022162800-Mohammed_Al-Keesh-20241020041300"></span><span typeof="mw:File"><span><img alt="" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ea/Red_question_icon_with_gradient_background.svg/20px-Red_question_icon_with_gradient_background.svg.png" decoding="async" width="20" height="20" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ea/Red_question_icon_with_gradient_background.svg/30px-Red_question_icon_with_gradient_background.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ea/Red_question_icon_with_gradient_background.svg/40px-Red_question_icon_with_gradient_background.svg.png 2x" data-file-width="62" data-file-height="62"/></span></span> <b>Not done</b>: it's not clear what changes you want to be made.
